No more, no less.
i assume i can keep the toque, too.
btw wikipedia is a bit snooty about the canadian toque.
they even take the opp to slag of the canadian oxford dictionary.
i love the quotes around 'fashion'....
In Canada, a toque or tuque (IPA /tuk/) is a knit winter hat, originally a French-Canadian woolen hat. This "fashion" originated when coureurs des bois kept their woollen nightcaps on for warmth during cold winter days. The Canadian Oxford Dictionary regards the use of toque for this hat to be assimilated from the etymologically unrelated French word tuque.

It's official. I'll be in London from May 3 until May 13. Who among the London posse will tip the glass with ol' darvlay? Perhaps you could all schedule another meat-up?
