I wear a furry hat when it's cold and a kangaroo skin bush hat when spectating at horsey events.

I bought a £1 hat from the Pound shop last year but haven't used it yet this year.
A bit off topic, but about 6 months ago I bought a new bicycle seat from a proper bike shop. Unbelievably, it soaks up the rain like a sponge. WTF. You'd think people that make seats for a living would be able to design a seat that doesn't soak up rain. There's a seam of stitches running along the edge of the seat, where water gets in and now the foam (or whatever padding is inside) is waterlogged. So I get a wet arse even on dry days (the bike is stored outside and I can't be bothered with a bike/seat cover). It will probably be mid-summer before it dries out (if ever) sufficiently that I can waterproof the seam in some way. Preferably I would like to waterproof it without buying expensive waterproofing stuff. I wonder what would work best? Rub a candle along the seam?Comment
