I still have my 3 guinea ( that's 63 shillings for youngsters) Gieves Flight Cadet mandatory civvy hat to politely raise to proper officers and ladies. I have kind of treasured it because spending that sort of money ion a trilby in those days was pretty mind-blowing. It has been restyled several times and presently is of the plantpot persuasion.

It brings back absolutely no fond memories.
