Burglar hats – 3 for a £1

The woman up the street had her car window smashed and her handbag stolen yesterday afternoon. My middle son was playing out in our driveway at the time of the incident and I asked him if he saw anyone.
"I saw a man," he said.
"What did he look like?" says I.
"He was big and wearing a hat," he replies.
"What kind of hat?" I ask, thinking that the boy could possibly help the police who are up searching through hedges a few doors up.
"It was a burglar's hat," he says. "You know, like a black hat with the word burglar written in big letters across the front of it."
Handy those...
