I want a plumper! :-D :-D

I had my boiler serviced during the last lockdown. The sweep came too - a huge lad with tattoos, long plaited beard, and mohican - but he took his Doc Martens off before he came in. As I'd only had a fire about 3 times last year, he just did a smoke test.

I had my hair cut in August, I think. My sister (who isn't a hairdresser) does it - and does it very well, providing we've both had a drink or rwo.
It's 'payback' for when she gave me a mullett in the 1960's!

I shall get it done again when the lockdown's over, and we have a family gathering again. Having it cut at a gathering can be amusing - 'advice' coming from all quarters, usually from the half who aren't driving home and are as squiffy as me and my sister :-D
However, as my hair is dead straight, and has no hidden 'talent's (like frizzing when washed, or a 'secret' wave). a straightforward hack along the bottom results in a successful haircut/style :-D
My sister has to blow dry her hair, or it frizzes, and 'style' it or it has 'kinks'.
I just wash and condition mine, brush it, and leave it to dry.
Some days I forget to brush it, and you wouldn't know. As long as I brush it after washing, it stays in place :-D

Oh dear....slip of the finger there. I shall tell the plumber when he comes that he is now a plumper. He can go round plumping up my cushions :-D :-D :-D

He' still here Joy, but at least the heating is on now. He's a very good plumber who is meticulous in his work and I hope he keeps working for as long as I am around to need him. :-)
