    Just spent 20 minutes looking for a barbers. You'd think it would be easy as they were popping up everywhere not long ago. There are six, but 2 had big queues and 2 were closed, one I would ever go near (filthy) and one wanted £19!!

    I decided to wait at the first one - typical eh?

    Anyway, sitting there I'm watching this guy do a cut throat shave and he is on the phone at the same time. I got up and went to walk out and they guy goes 'youre next' and I replied "not with you still on the phone, not exactly a good standard to be on the phone"!

    Am I just being picky?

    A café in Holmfirth has a sign saying you will not be served if you are on the phone. Think it's just basic manners.

    In Rotherham, the only shops open are charity shops, betting shops and pound shops....but there must be 15+ barbers/hairdressers.....result is I get a cut for £4.99......and as they say, the only difference between a good haircut and a bad one is a couple of weeks!

    I don't think I've seen the inside of a barber shop in the last decade. :D

    A good friend at work ended up in hospital a couple of years ago after getting cut by a barber. The barber was using dirty scissors and left my friend on life support due to an infection.

    Where's @SweeneyTodd when you need him?
    I reckon that's a snip at £19 if they do it right.
    £4.99 isn't much toupee either!
    All this talk of "shapely" hairdressers ... All they need is a short back and sides.
    Wouldn't catch me cutting hair. It's a cut throat business.
    :hattip:
