Hey, wait a moment! I wear a silly British hat - to whit a flat cap. And indeed I grew up in West Yorkshire, though I’m now in Wales, and can consider myself a young ‘un. Glad the Telegraph also included the shot of Last of the Summerwine in the article, as that’s Cartworth Moor atop Holmfirth, my house where I grew up and spent most of my life on the opposite side of the valley there. Ahh, memories of a pint of mild in’t Nook and a game of darts, before playing Asteroids on the table-top games machine and listening to the Pogues on the jukebox. If you like Wallace & Grommit by the way, that’s the actor who plays Wallace leaning on the gate in the foreground there.
And I disapprove of shedding head gear in pubs, the daft aipeth’s.
