Hair

Was chatting with my barber today, he said he’d just renewed the lease on his shop after 20 years (I’ve been going to him since his shop was in a different location). He’s been cutting hair for 37 years now. His dad was a barber. He said he’s cut the hair of a grandchild of a client whom he originally gave their first haircut. He’s trained around 25 apprentices. His barbershop used to be a hotbed of gossip and stockmarket tips (some more reliable than others) and still is to some degree, I’m sure, but not on a weekend.

I also realise that my haircuts usually coincide with job interviews or releases of software I’m working on :)

Also, the Digilife store on the Murray St. Mall side of City Arcade seems to have closed. Pizza shop coming soon. Now if only they’d combined the two!
