China Crumpet

Ok so it’s been a while. I have been up to my neck in starting my business, managing my busy hospital day job and arranging my wedding. Now that everything is pretty much ready to go, I can relax a little and write again.

But what to write about? Today, the answer came in the form of an umbrella hat.

I have long been chuckling at the thought of someone actually thinking of this, as my Chinese compatriots are deathly scared of the sun and avoid it at all costs. There have been Darth Vader welding masks, ball gloves, caps, hats, newspapers and many other innovative sun blockers, however, somehow I never thought an umbrella hat would appear in real life… But, the Chinese being the safety minded individuals they are, have of course thought of a way to stick an umbrella to their heads to leave hands free for steering.

I have nothing more to say, except, enjoy the pictures.

Pretty Bad-A**

so clever!
