    I dont think your being rude, However I think you are being (at the risk of sounding rude) a little dismissive because it's not in your field of interest. I cant blame you really because the chances of seeing anything similar is very slim... in this case it's probably the only chance. I...

    Oh well ., I was looking forward to hearing what some of you would have said about the hat but that's not to be. I cant waste time on constantly trying to post pics with no success so I'll probably just be a reader and looker at the site. That is unless there is a simpler way to successfully...

    Amazing what a bit of gold spray paint can do?
