Time For A Haircut

It seems to be always time for a haircut, hence my question recently.

In Monmouth there is only one barber that one frequents, and that's Sid's, no sorry, that's Dave's, no it's actually Paddy's these days.

I can just about recall Sid, he was funny, round (I think), a bit like a 1960's end of pier comedian ... that's probably doing him an awful injustice.

His apprentice at the time was Dave Willet and he became the man who did the hair for the lads and gents. It was always a place that Mums would take their boys for their haircuts.

On my visit to Monmouth last year and after saving all the hair for the Iceland trip it was definitely time to have it shaved off, so down to Sid/Dave/Paddy I went. It hasn't changed, but it is more modern, love how Paddy has done that.

Selfie in the mirror of a classic barbers. A sink, hair styling equipment, and a wooden cabinet full of lotions and potions can be seen by the man in the leather chair as the barber shaves his head.

PS: I was also getting my facial hair removed, much to chagrin of my girlfriend. Luckily she was in New Zealand and so it grew back just in time 😁
