I go to a Turkish barber every six weeks. As I last got my hair done before holiday it's been over two months now and I have had to do a home hair cut this weekend :ph34r:

I don't hate it.

After working from home for a week and a half, I've decided to try growing out my beard. This will last until my wife gets sick of it.

I am going full hippy-if this lasts that long.

I'm going to go the opposite - try to get my hands on electric trimmers and go full-on buzz cut.
Posts here are my own private opinions.  I do not speak for my employer.

I had gotten a set of cordless (highly recommend that), rechargeable clippers and have been cutting my own hair for about two years now. 

I don't do a full on, military buzz cut, but my short enough to be pretty simple (Meri could say if it looked like ass or not).

Youtube videos help for that initial confidence you need to take the initial plunge (plus the willingness to cut it all off and start over if you mess up).

I picked up a nice Wahl  a few years back, genuine good bit of American kit.  :)

Some budding entrepreneur should resurrect the Flowbee.  :P

Can you idiots stop babbling about your hair for just one second?  This is a deadly serious situation, and we need to focus on what's important, like yeast.

Seems like I wasn't the first one who had this thought.  My local target has been all out of good Wahl clippers.  It's probably easier to find toilet paper.

I don't think I have ever bought yeast, or suffered to have any in my home.

I practice good foot hygiene and am single.  :sleep:

Anyway getting back on topic, what are people currently choosing to bury in your coffee tins?

I am really surprised that people bake their own bread at home.  Never thought that is possible until now.  You guys must have big ovens or something. 

Now that I think about it, bags of flour is not a bad way to store food.
