Yes that's Richard in the Panama - not sure I would call him cool though! he always wears a hat, not having much up top. That Panama has definitely seen better days, it's almost shredded now, being very finely woven and bashed about here there and everywhere. It's not easy to find Panamas in the shops these days, there are plenty on the net but would not want to buy a hat without trying it esp when forking out £40 or £50 for a decent Panama. He tried some on when we were in Cambridge a couple of years ago at the university outfitters but they didn't have his size. The search continues!
So now I've got to search my photos for some statues... will see what I can find!

Just had a nice surprise - some friends are coming over in less than an hour and we are going to Lake Garda for a swim and then fresh lake sardines at a favourite Trattoria - off to get my swimming togs on!
