It's Your Round Posted April 7, 2020 Share Posted April 7, 2020 How I’ve gone from being the bald man with a set of clippers, a figure of ridicule in my fully haired household, to the last hope and saviour for haircuts during the apocalypse. Both kids have asked me to shave the backs of their heads this week. Nothing extreme just a number one undercut. I’m not touching them with scissors. But it’s nice to be valued as a badly for once. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davkaus Posted April 7, 2020 Share Posted April 7, 2020 I have some clippers and considered just shaving it all off, but I've decided to take advantage of nobody seeing me for probably 2-3 months, and I'm using it as an opportunity to grow out my hair and see if I can grow a beard. This is week 2 day 5. I'm beginning to look slightly unkempt. I refuse to shave until at least week 8, it's the best chance I'll ever get to see if I can grow one while avoiding judgement. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d love to do that, but my time for plentiful hair has passed. Plus my missus would have me on a ban, and I don’t want that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xela Posted April 7, 2020 Share Posted April 7, 2020 My hair is past its normal cut by date. Plus I've been growing my beard since November 2018. I think its reached it maximum though as it hasn't really grown much in the last few months. With the excess lockdown eating i'm expecting to come out of lockdown looking like this: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do yourself a favour and tidy the neckline/cheekline every so often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VILLAMARV Posted April 7, 2020 Share Posted April 7, 2020 Down here in designated exercise sector 357x there's a parakeet nesting in a tree. Didn't know we had parakeets in the UK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VILLAMARV Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 @useless - especially when I get to catch up on 9 months worth of musings in the I often wonder thread. You had me and Mrsvm crying tears of joyful laughter at times last night, which given the current state of affairs is pretty damn cool. Thank you for being you and sharing it with us.

There is a rumour that Jimi Hendrix is to blame, but obviously they are just a number of escapees from various homes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get them in my back garden , there are loads of them in Surrey ... things are a bit of a pain as they strip all the trees !! Before the Hendrix rumour , was the rumour that they escaped from Shepperton studios where they were being used on the set of African Queen ... but they seem to have been around in smaller numbers long before that 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xann Posted April 9, 2020 Share Posted April 9, 2020 Ring necked parakeets are seriously one of the most numerous birds in South and West London. You get massive raucous squadrons of them. They're sometimes quite tame in the central London parks. Tone's right, they're destructive. The allotment folk don't like them. Richmond Park is the best for diversity of escapees. Macaws and cockatoos flying about. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Useless, never leave here again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
