Leprechaun Top Hat
Leprechaun Top Hat (Top of the Morning)

I don't wish to complicate matters, but "bonnet" is clearly a 6-lettered word, whereas "top hat" follows a (3, 3)-pattern and at best the hyphenated "top-hat" fits a (3 - 3)-pattern.

Surely the "acid test" will be what intersecting letters turn up from the other solutions!

[Dustybun]

The Leprechaun, according to Yeats, "is something of a dandy ...... wears a cocked-hat, upon whose pointed end he is wont to spin like a top when the fit seizes him." So it could be a tophat but perhaps not the sort we would normally think of!

[4getmenot]

I think they asking for actually irish name which I take it would be bonnet. I dont know I'm confused :-)

[Dustybun]

they don't come much more Irish than Yeats!!!!

[crofter]

Aah! The penny's dropped Dustybun. It's like a "spinning top" hat!

4getmenot I assume that this is NOT from a crossword - otherwise you would be feeding us the other clues. How did you know that it ended with the letter T?

[4getmenot]

Unfortunately its just a question my sis asked me so I cant tell you. Its got to be bonnet hasnt it??

[Dustybun]

you got it crofter! I've tried to tell 4getmenot that Yeats was a great Irish poet and playwright from the days before the leprechaun became "dressed up variably" for the tourist trade! Will you post the correct answer for us when you find out please 4getmenot? Thanks

[4getmenot]

Somehow I dont think a spinning top is a hat!! Yeats is on about spinning his cocked hat like a top. The correct answer is bonnett. But Got you all thinking. Thanks to all :-)

[4getmenot]

And as said before top hat (two words) I'm looking for one with 6. Thanks
