    I am trying to work out what happened here. Did you mean to type "one's hair"? And have you referred to my late-nearly-ex in the past, teaching your autocorrect to capitalise LNE?

    Anyway, it gave me an amusing mental image. His hair (well, for the last 10 years of his life anyway) was very short - I used to do it with the clippers, and then he used to do it with them himself. So there really wouldn't have been anything much anyone could have done with his hair for the hair dresser, even if he'd gone to one, which he didn't. ;)

    I don't know if LNE in my macputer is you LNE. I just typed LNE and it gave me one!

    Autocorrect has really become one of my small pleasures in the day. :rotfl:

    No extra taxes, we are also affiliated to very, very, very south west Herts, aka the British Virgin Isles..

    This is perfect!

    So, we get all the pomp of feudalism and someone else at the top as the terrorism target:eek:

    Mean while I got carried away with the hair drying, If I still had layers or it were an inch shorter it would be a true Afro tonight.(if I teased out the curls) :). Because I don't its a shoulder length mass. Straight ATM its well past my waist.

    Good Evening friends I have managed to get online using my OH's laptop and using a 'dongle as my computer is in storage at the moment because of our move last week.

    Well lots have happened since my last visit not only did we manage to have all our belongings collected and put into storage but we have found our next home, put in an offer and have been accepted so things are now in the hands of the Solicitors, so fingers crossed.

    The Bungalow is situated in Wiltshire and we are delighted.:)

    I will read back as far as I can soon to see what you have all been up to.
    I was thinking of you last week.

    I can't believe how fast things happened.... I daren't even view a first house yet!!

    Years ago (60s/70s?) there used to be adverts for a big hairdrier hood thing, that came with a "handbag" that powered it - so you could sit anywhere and walk about drying your hair.... of course, it'd dry in the shape of the hood so you'd look like a Sikh that'd taken your turban off.

    Go to ebay and search for: Portable Hair Dryer Soft Hood

    Don't remember ever seeing him on this thread, but he does start a lot of [STRIKE]arguments[/STRIKE] threads elsewhere on the board.

    . Old girl has her rug off in the spring sun and is happily pottering around the back garden where there is far more grass than the fields ATM.

    Lovely mental picture. My daughters childhood pony aka "Spirit" used to jump out of the yard and into the garden. She would frighten the daylights out of me as she looked in through the kitchen window. To add insult to injury she left semi permanent hoof holes over the wet clay ground and was a right s*d to catch. It was best to leave her to eat everything (roses were a favourite) and then let her follow you back up thepath.
    Save them for a year, then publish them in time for Xmas and call it "50 Shades of Wednesday"

    That was very quick...and funny:rotfl:
