I have seen one plane in the sky in the last 2 weeks…...

Wahl clippers should be here Monday.  Originally I was told the middle of May.

Who'd have thought a month ago that investing in flour suppliers, manufacturers of hair clippers, tinned tomato companies etc would have been a shrewd move......

That’s a wonderful espalier Giles!

Hi All! Been away from the forum for an age. Looking forward to catching up on what's been happening.

The Guardian has a piece about Billy Tannery, who (as their name suggests) are tanning goatskin.

They're doing vegetable tanning, and Mimosa bark is mentioned. That's what Shinki use.

More details can be found on their website. They sell individual hides, including a natural goatskin, which I don't think that I've seen before. Could be an interesting option…

@Giles I'm sure you're capable of a quick Google search, but here is a good guide to not f'ing up your own hair

I'm pretty adept at trimming my own beard now. I had a great teacher when I used to visit one of the 'barbers of the year' in London

Skye was my barber, it was always a pleasure. Not often you can get a beard trim while talking to a cool woman about death metal!

Seul, my friend, the novelty wears off real quick.
Luckily you have a fridge full of goodies.  Alcohol sales have apparently gone through the roof, with good reasons.
