Ha ha! The very same thing happened to me. Fortunately I had to wear a hat at work but unfortunately the bruise protruded below the edge of the hat. I tried telling evryone I had become a hindu but to no avail.

If it wasn't for your irrational hatred of Marmite we could be Brothers.......obviously not the close kind of course, rather the no contact but Christmas and Birthday card type

I like symmetary so shave the goatee, head and eyebrows with the blade.

Safe diving,
Steve

P.S. Woz IIRC you're so fcuking ugly a convict cut could only improve your visage

I look like a bloody bouncer and my head's really cold when I go outside.
Do you like cigars?

The last time I had my hair cut, I got a number 2 instead of a 3 (or was it a 3 instead of a 4) because my hairdresser put the wrong attachment on.

Whoops, I've had a cold bonce over the last few weeks, but its all back to normal now

This made me laugh, because the last time the 'High Dudess' cut my hair a similar thing happened, she cut one strip and realized that it was a No 1.

Last time I paid to go to a hairdresser, I sat in the seat, expecting the usual

'what can I do for you today, Sir?' type thing...

all I got was

" Let's not fcuk about here shall we Sir - Number 3 all over?!"

I was very quiet through the 'job'.

He never got tipped.

I've never been back.

Bought my own set of clippers.

At Your's was self induced and all I wanted was a Nikey tick not an Adidas 3 stripper....

Oh, and the Job was Ops Director for a new Company... I never did ask what anyone thought..

A bad hair cut! You where lucky!
When I was a lad we used to go for a haircut and get sexually abused and not in a good way. Used to go to a little local barbers on my estate, as you where having your haircut the barber would "accidentally" rub his crotch against your shoulder. Like all these things it wasn't until I was talking to a mate in a pub years later and he said that the same thing used to happen to him there, that I realised what had been going on. But it wasn't all bad as there was always a big pile of porn on the table to keep you entertained while you where waiting to be felt up.

The barber's name wasn't Digger by any chance?
