Yes the drivers in Aberdeen get always this smiling perhaps they are always women...so It is normal with gentlemen... VV

This style of hat was/is worn by Hoklo fisherfolk who originally came from Fujian.

I remember you used to be able to hop from boat to boat in one of these taxis, buying dim sum at every one.
