I don't know where you get such silly hats, but Debi had quite a few. Apparently in England there's a whole ministry devoted to silly hats. Or that's what I hear.

Supposedly there are fish in this pond that have penchant for biting off the tip of the male member as the guidebook so delicately put it, or as Matt said "blimey, they bite your dick off?". Luckily we didn't encounter any. you can read about it in more detail on luxagraf: Safe as Milk.

One would think, if one were to illegally bomb a country, that one would not print the place of origin on the side of the bomb. Incontrovertible proof -- not only are we assholes, we're stupid too. Safe as Milk.
