And she said, you're a man, that's fine for you to say.
Suddenly it becomes complicated.
Well, hat etiquette.
And funnily enough, also last night, I was quite having a flim flam because I wasn't sure whether to wear my little hat inside or not.
Because I was always taught that hat etiquette was a gentleman takes his hat off inside.
And certainly I couldn't sit down and have dinner with a lady without
wearing a hat, I just could not do it.
But I thought maybe, and I actually asked a couple of people in the cloakroom queue, should I wear a hat or not?
And they all said, yes, you should do.
So that's one thing I'm not quite sure.
Hat etiquette.
You know, in cinemas in the 1930s, they used to show a slide which said, ladies under the age of... No, ladies over the age of 30 need not remove their hats during the performance.
No.
Because, of course, in the cinema, you couldn't see if you were sitting behind somebody with a big feather.
That's it.
But hat etiquette...
Yes, because, I don't know, it would have been improper.
Interesting that 30 was the cut-off age.
But hat etiquette, I mean, I think it's so funny because when people think of hat etiquette, they would always think of, oh, yes, you should be wearing a big cap with the veil and feathers on it, blah, blah, blah.
But actually, etiquette is when something is right for now, not for the past.
