So, now when the story with @BorisJohnson’s stylish hat became public, have to tell the whole story.

Danger: long 🧵 ahead.

The story starts in #Irpin, where @BorisJohnson was during his recent visit to Ukraine. Look how grumpy he was. And I thought that the reason could be in his hat. That’s #londonunderground hat, btw.

So when Boris visited our station shop, @Pertsovskyi_O asked @BorisJohnson whether he’d like to try a different hat. A proper one. Ukrainian Railways hat.

We found a better hat for @BorisJohnson then. And @Pertsovskyi_O offered to change the hats right away. But Boris was not sure at the moment, as you see.

So we simply presented him a proper hat.

But later on the train Boris tried our hat and understood it’s a decent one. So he presented his old hat to Ukrainian Railways.

So Boris left our train in a proper hat.

And his old #londonunderground hat got back to Ukrainian Railways.

And now @BorisJohnson is the most stylish man in London. Meanwhile British media are wondering where he got such a cool hat.

And the story with Boris’ old #londonunderground hat is not over. But that's something I gonna tell you later.

Btw, the text on our hat says “carriage numbering starts from the head of the train”.
