I've had a result today......turned up to my barbers for a £9 haircut and they've closed down

Two doors away is a fancy stylist - "yes, we could cut sir's hair in 10 minutes, we seem to have a free slot." Me: "How much would that be?" "£56, we do scissor cuts" After I've picked myself up off the floor, I did mention that all I need is a No 2 and actually I don't have much hair any way. "No, sir, it will still be £56". (That would be £1 for every second it would take to cut my Barnet). Dejected, I cycled home and by chance saw a barbers nearer by. "Yes, we can do you a quick cut. That'll be £10, sir"

Are you prepping for your trip Rocky as you must be off soon.

Got to look good on the road next to the Prof

I gave myself a number 2 cut a couple of days ago using clippers I bought about 5 years ago for £17. Saved me a fortune. Though I really should buy some proper light machine oil for the blades - I'm not sure using WD85 is the ideal fragrance.

Not all barbers are happy doing women's hair, which is why I bought my own clippers six years ago. Also saved a small fortune. It's just a shame I make a pretty rubbish stylist.

Actually, you can get one for £10 at Argos.

£56 !!! Even i don't pay that much for my hair cut.

Potsy says it shows.



I don't pay anything for my haircut, I have a wife for that.

Actually, I don't remember you having any hair, TVC

Shiny and proud, that's my head.

Blimey, get a set of clippers! I have been doing Him Indoors' hair for years now.

I've tried to cut my own hair in the past, with disastrous results. Mrs R did used to cut my hair 20 years ago but she now refuses to do it. She says she is far too important

Have you tried offering her something for the weekend?

We take the ferry on Saturday night........although Gravel has volunteered to house sit for us......and I am worried

I really don't want to hear your address being put out over the radio for my colleagues to attend

Will you be back for my Beachuts ride on July 9th ?

 

[Hill Wimp]

Oh goodness, I hadn't seen that thread.....I suspect we won't. I will be reaching a significant milestone at the end of June and we will be celebrating with my mum and sisters (and Gravel, if I decide to invite him). Sorry

Shall i let you know if he will be free to attend or not before you come home?

He maybe somewhere i can pass a message through the trap in the door

I had the opportunity of having a look on a £60m private jet this afternoon, very plush but I thunk I'll stick with RyanAir next time I want to fly!
