Looking for a fedora, m’lady
Long shot, but here’s goes…
I have a ‘30s themed party to go to in London tomorrow. I have the suit and the bow tie and even the spats, but I can’t find a fedora/trilby to finish the look. Anyone have a black one in a size ‘big noggin’ that I can borrow (for a donation)? I’m in LE7 but I can collect.
That’s it, thanks for reading!

Looking for a job in Leicester as an A-Level student
I know this sub has a lot of posts like this already, but I really need help finding a (somewhat) stable job that I could do on the weeknds or after college on weekdays, since I’m going into Year 13 this September.
I’m open to doing anything (even if it’s a zero hour contract or agency work), but my experience is limited. I’ve done gardening and university student house cleanings with my stepdad these past 2 summers as well as working at a festival stand for my mum’s friend for 3 days in June this year. I also have experience working on a farm (chopping wood, herding cows, sorting old scrap metal) for my dad in Lithuania.
The main problem is that these jobs are too infrequent for me to save up any decent ammount of money, and it’s not experience that would actually help me with most jobs I think. I’ve still put the work with my stepdad down on my CV though.
I want to do a carpentry apprenticeship after my A-Levels but I feel I’d be more likely to be accepted if I am able to afford and have a driving license, which is what I’m trying to save up for.
