At the beginning of the lockdown I bought a brilliant Wahl hair trimmer. It has removable guides for No. 1, 2, 3, cuts etc plus other guides for around the ears etc. It cost £36 on line so will pay for itself within 4 months. Having used it once I reckon I won't bother with the barbers again.

I worked with a guy who arrived at work one day having cut his own hair with clippers. His hair was very short but his head looked like a desert island with little palm trees growing on it.

Heather bought the Wahl set for grooming our dog. She is regularly trimmed.

I have to sit in a Swivel Chair. I made a frame for the dog to stand in, with 2 bungee cords, under her body, similar to groomer. Heather does us all.

My good lady has always cut my hair. I mentioned that when she gets enough practice I will let her cut the lawn - the doctor says the resulting bald patch will regrow one day and cover the scar.

No haircut for me.
Got the flowery shirt, flared jeans and platform boots out. I knew they would come back in fashion.

Off to San Francisco as soon as I can.

Tickets for Woodstock, Isle of Wight etc.

Bring it on.

I failed to get a hair cut before going on a cruise many years ago, so first stop was an electrical shop for some shears, used them once on the cruise and put in the back of the cupboard! After a long search as I knew where i had put them!!!! out they came a drop of oil from the loco oiler and away they went. I only had to trim round the shiny area on top, did it myself, but there were a few funny looks and the odd comment on my achievement :o
A quick tidy up by the resident expert was in order :lol: Down to No1 now.
