So, the top-secret hat research. Papa Smurf wins the (virtual) prize, though Katie came close - I was indeed Mystery Worshipping a church where hats are de rigeur (sp? It's French, I don't have to be pedantic in someone else's language!). Despite the last minute Post Office-related panic that they weren't going to be delivered in time, I was very glad indeed for the loan of Claire's hats (I went for the burgundy one in the end) - I probably would have got away (just) with scruffy-casual, but I definitely wouldn't have got away with woolly bobble hat. It more or less fitted, although as it was basically perched on top of my head it did rather make me look like that long-haired bloke from Slade.
The sermon was very very long indeed. At one point I imagined myself in Smudgie's very kindly offered hat (orange felt, with chin straps and a penguin on the front), but stopped that as I didn't want to get the giggles. It was a lovely offer, but I suspect it would probably have blown my cover.
