I've gone grey from the top. Looks a lot like someone has dumped a bucket of whitewash on my head, in good old fashioned comedy style.
Less so now it is short.

I started going grey very early. I'm my 20s my hairdresser used to tell me that they were the best highlights she'd ever seen and would love to be able to replicate them.
Nowadays I'm just waiting for the two tone, badger like, phase to be over...

Can you be nude while wearing slippers? Feels to me that wearing anything means the nude is no longer nude.

It was. Also upsetting, anger making and inspiring all in one package. Genuinely excellent.

The History of Women in 101 Objects might be a bit too close to your subject, but it was my first 5 star book of the year.
I listened to it and there was some inspired casting. Mariam Margolyes reading about a glass dildo will remain in the memory for some time.

I missed these as a child. I finally listened to the Funnybones books a few years ago and thought them brilliant, if a little bonkers (in a good way).

It would fool me.
I used to go to an early spin class, not wearing my glasses. Chap in class used to smile at me every time. Took me 18 months to work out he was my neighbour. He went to spin in his contacts, but usually wears glasses. In my defence he was a bit blurry, but even so, that's poor!

Are you still digging and expanding the site and your knowledge about the dudes that lived in the palace.
How much more do you know than when I visited on a school trip in the 80s.
And when did you become a palace, rather than a villa? And what's the difference (apart from ego).

Hi Simon. I recently read "The History of Women in 101 Objects". I would like to buy up to 5 copies of this fascinating, anger making, moving, funny and important book. Everyone ought to read it.

Morning (just!) Womble.
I'm reading Latitudes of Longing for this month's Shelterbox book club.
And listening to The Man Who Went Up In Smoke, the 2nd in the Martin Beck series.
