Arrived at aged mum’s on Saturday for the weekend’s do-gooding visit.

Her second sentence was

“Your hair looks just like a girl’s”.

Her last but one on my leaving this morning:

“When are you going to get your hair cut?”

So I guess her opening remarks were not meant to be a compliment

Guess like some of the others you just learn to make a joke of it.

I just say it is a mid-life crisis and that I am trying to look younger.

Also, a good line is that having had short hair most of my life because of my career

now I work for myself I set the rules.
