Pleathe don't wear a pith helmet with a lithp. - 21:21
I do not actually own a Pith helmet myself, sure I have Swedish Lapplander
hats coming
out my
ears and a variety of other hats from your standard beanies to mirrored
eastern looking hats. However my hat collection lacks a Pith helmet, I wonder
if that is a bad thing. My cousin Jackson has a Pith helmet, and a safari suit
he can wear with it, I wonder if you can still wield a machete and hack
through jungle if not properly attired.
The lack of wild exotic jungles in and around Canberra will probably mean I will not find out for a while, I could at least buy a Pith helmet to mount on my bicycle helmets when we go exploring new mountain bike locations, who knows being made of cork it may even provide added protection. (I was most distressed to learn there is no WikiPedia entry on Pith Helmets, alas I do not know enough real information about them to do more than a Stub I suspect)
