Thanks Gabor...I didn't expect to get any further than your reply. Just posted to show that flies are starting to appear up here again...been a long winter (so far) but I have seen snow here in May :|.
Regards Roger

Cheers Tony...I told the guy to just give me a trim :|.
Ended up looking like a Tipulids arse, or Frank Bruno after fifteen rounds of boxing with anyone over the age of six.
Jorge...you're next for a haircut....oops, you've already had one ..SORRY...I know a good hairdresser (pity I didn't use him). Wonder how long this'll take to grow back?
Regards (with a cold head) Roger
