I figured as much, but when I read that description of why the hat had corks, I found it amusing and thought it would be worth the $5!creeky wrote:We only use cork in our wines ... those cork hats are not worn generally - if that is what you are talking about?

Do Aussie's drink alotta wine, or is cork used for other things?
As for the corks, in 2001 the Girl Guides of Australia collected 16 million corks to recycle!
That's a lot of corks!You’re still grinning, we’re still winning, nothing left to say
