There has been a mad scrabble for the pith helmets it seems!

I can order 10 MORE quality French Safari Pith 'Big Head' Helmets for way cheaper than they cost individually, normally £18.96 each. The supplying company has excellent Amazon reviews on all its styles of pith helmet. If 10 MORE people sign up then I will order, they will only cost £10 each. A fun, practical, cool, quality hat for the outdoors, holiday or party.

Delivery will be at the Moot although I am willing to 2nd class RM medium parcel post for £7 (+1.10 for Signed For) I will order the larger size in khaki. This large size specifies a 59-61cm head but of course it will fit smaller heads too with some tweaking whereas the smaller one won't fit bigger heads!! Go on, I dare you.

Woohoo, the first batch arrives tomorrow.

The first batch have arrived, working on the second batch now. Looking for at least 6 more to sign up and we will then have some spares for the Moot raffle and, huhmm, other purposes.

Bargain price, practical, fun, cool, loads of uses, it will pay for itself again and again. Don't get left out, grab one while you can.

I wish I had mine with me today instead of collecting it at the Moot. I was sweating buckets under my navy blue cotton wide brimmed hat today in the hot sun! Sooo looking forward to wearing something that has been tried and tested and actually works to ward off the heat. No I'm not going to jinx it and say anyting more about what weather we might have at the Moot. It will be perfect ... won't it Tony? :cool:

I came very close to wearing mine for the practical shooting competition this last rather warm Saturday but it may have been considered a little eccentric as the ranges are cool underground tunnels!! :lmao: I did do the catering though.

When I popped in to get myself my safari gear, I saw the very same hats. Wanted £30 for it! He said he pretty much buys them at this price, so a pretty good deal.

Perhaps you should have told him to sign up to BCUK and get in on the group buy, lol!

I'm just imagining this as the rousing dawn chorus emanating from the Naughty Corner with some startled onlookers. (Will the last years Zulu's be back?)

Does anyone going to the moot, have a pair of putties that I could beg, borrow or buy. Alternatively any ideas of what I can use to make a pair. Thanks in advance.

Right then, it doesn't look like I am ordering any more Pith helmets. I didn't really have room in the car anyway! The current order will arrive on the Friday evening thanks to Countryman.

Thanks guys.
