[sandyRoe]

Is it just size that makes the difference?

[Sqad]

LOL....No sandy....it's where you put it that makes the difference.

[murraymints]

[sandyRoe]

Sqad, as ever, has got to the nub of the matter, where you put it.
My old dad used to stuff his into his sleeve.

[Old_Geezer]

That'd be an armkerchief then.

Don't mess with girlie neckerchiefs or cravats sandy. Get yourself a proper shemagh.

Needs to hold out for a hemagh.

I think you can put a Woggle on your Neckerchief.

You don't blow your nose into a neckerchief............do you?

[RATTER15]

Lol, Togo, that is pretty much what I wear every morning when I take the hounds out in this hostile weather, keeps my neck warm, much better than a heavy scarf. I usually also wear a bush hat but this wind would just blow it away so I wear a beanie if really windy!

[Togo]

Haha Ratters. I wear mine with my 1954 parka. Got 3 of em. Red White and Tan. 'She who must be obeyed' says I look like Yasser Arafat when we go out. Especially when I wrap it around my face and head if it's cold and windy.

sandy....I get all my handkerchiefs in a tailors shop in Brecon, and I bought another two yesterday. These are monster sized, about 20 inches square !

They can double as bandanas, emergency towels, and tablecloths for picnics. In my book, hankies can never be too big !

//These are monster sized, about 20 inches square !//

you could sew two together and make a cushion

Only the nose blowing obsessed have handkerchiefs. The ones who always start blowing it after they have finished their meal in a restaurant :0/

I wouldn't blow my nose in a handkerchief either. Rather a disgusting unhygienic practise in my opinion. I wear a clean one in a suit top pocket for emergencies (cuts etc) and a small pack of kleenex for nasal evacuations. Who want's their smalls spinning around with a load of snot in the washing machine? :-)

What would mikey stuff em with ael?

[aelmpvw]

^ redundant regular sized hankies?
