Number five on top and two on the sides. Don’t worry about a rinse.
The Barber, Barry, replies:
So, going anywhere nice this Easter?
The subject:
No, probably not. I’ve just got back from Chad where I tamed a wild Elephant and fed it Jaffa Cakes.
Barber:
That should be nice. So, what do you do for a living?
Subject:
I work with the skull. Around twenty to thirty a day. Usually more if a bank holiday or Christmas is coming up.
Barber:
My old man’s mate used to be some kinda doctor too. Messy business, but then I’m screamish. What’s the worst you’ve seen?
Subject:
One guy’s nut had lice in it. Hadn’t been washed in years. Hairy knots and tangles all the way through.
Barber:
Well, blow me down. Who’d have thought a brain would grow hair?
Subject:
Yeah, people and their brains… who’d have thought it?
Barber:
So then, tell me how I should wash mine.
