At Last.. the PRODUCT we all NEED! Forward WIP have done it!





 My apologies for the picture being upside down on yesterday evenings post. I was not having a good night due to the computer issues, which I am glad to say, with all fingers crossed, is now workin'a treat. It actually got worse as the evening went on, due to it raining on the 3.5 mile muddy walk to the pub where my good lady works on a Friday evening. Apart from the wind driving the rain, it was quite surreal as I could hear the distant sound of a funfair, which is currently part of the Leonards Lee Garden's 'Illuminated' event ( I think I mentioned this last year. £18.00 a ticket might sound expensive but just think how much their electricity bill will be! https://leonardsleeilluminated.co.uk/ ).
So, not all bad and every cloud has a silver lining.. plus a beer at the end of the rainbow! But that is not why I am posting this post. 

The reason is this .. the Forward WIP Beanie is! 
So what is so special about another Neoprene Beanie.. there are loads to choose from? Well, yes, but at last WE have a manufacturer who has added.. wait for it,  a *CHIN STRAP! Excuse the verbal slang but friggin hoorah, it is about time! I have been saying for years that even a bit of elastic that you could hook under your chin would have done the job. F-WIP have done a better job than that, as their strap is wide enough to cover the ears as well, so a lesser chance of ear infections (due to cold water or the wind chill) and also cold ears! They are on their way to us and should arrive Monday, so I am sorry but you will have to wait until then. Are they expensive at £36.99? Not really as a-n-other company has put their 'non strapped' beanies up to £39.99. They are now listed on the 'old website'.. we hope to have something new for you all 'soon' (soon can be a long word!). As for the Pom Pom.. if you don't want one I will 'remove it' for you, 
 
* I know of one other company that has this type of product.. but they sell theirs direct, so I cannot give them a mention.
