it costs a fiver to get in, but if millinery gets you going, this is a really interesting exhibition. I was a tad disappointed not to see hats with lights, or fishtanks in, but there's pretty much everything else, and you get to try some stuff on.
I went with my friend Rebekah. We're starting a kind of club in which we go off once a week for a tour of a museum, armed with sandwiches and a flask of tea. It's good to give yourself a little quota to fill - like almost all other Londoners I'm very lazy when it comes to the culture on my doorstep.
I mention only in passing, and really without any thought at all about the kind of subscriber that these esteemed pages attract, that one could hazard a guess that in a room with approximately 300 people in I was the only straight male. And hats are a ice-breaker.
