Hair today...

... and gone tomorrow? Managed to get out for the first time in days; #2 son pushed me in my sexy chair to the local hairdresser. The other day I got so frustrated with not being able to do simple things, even washing my hair properly, that I had an urge to cut it all off there and then. Instead I waited until there was someone to take me (high kerbs and a busy road make it impossible to go under my own steam), and treated myself to a trip to the salon, worth more than any amount of drugs in terms of cheering a body up. A hairdo should be prescribable on the NHS I reckon. There was colour involved; were there scissors too? I'm not revealing just yet. Instead here are a few hair quotes I dug up:
