Good! I want to get my hair cut tomorrow, so nothing like a bit of sufferin'
weather to keep the other punters away ;-)

The wind seems to blow bits of my hair away without the need for
having it cut first ...

There was only one old bloke in there, so I listened to the cricket, read
the morning paper and only had to wait 15 mins. Rain lashed it down but it's
only 3 miles home.
