I get up in the morning,
Walk into the bathroom,
And there in front of me
Is a stranger in the mirror.
The face looks familiar,
But the hair is strange,
It is in a new style,
As it seems to be,
Every morning.

Know just how you feel, shaved it all off.... much better, nowhere to hide now.
Once i looked in the mirror and called the police... thought i had an intruder in the house.
That's one way d a, it may be a good idea.
Keep well
Andy
Ahh yes, when we reach the next point of needing our next hair cut - monthly? 2 monthly? 3 monthly?
Passed that point two weeks ago!
Andy
Could we cut our own hair, with certain arrangement of mirrors?
Do a hair cut by yourself Sir. Shave it all off if you think it suits you. 😊
It has crossed my mind but I think I will go back to my Seventies look, have a look at my poem 'Back to the Seventies published in this site on 9th April.

Okay sir. 🙂
You are not alone sir... far from it...
Fortunately, I quit looking in mirrors a long time ago...…. Nice one...

The trouble is that I still shave and need the mirror for that so that I don't end up cutting my throat!

Can imagine the almost daily changes in growing hair and the masculine wariness of cutting it back - it may not be too long before barbers are open again Andy my friend.
I am not too bothered, I dealt with my long hair in the seventies and in the eighties I even had it permed.
I hope you are keeping well Fay and all is good.

ANGELA HERE - Thanks Uncle Andy - We love Dean Martin - Great voice and a great interpreter of a SONG. Only Dean can sing this one ! Cliff Richard wouldnt touch it even though he owns vinyards in Portugal ! PAPA is pleased the Wine sales in the UK are up by 35% ! However Deans Ditty is a warning for all Lockdowners (M & F) not to overindulge on the Vino especially in the current UK hearwave ! I would have thought Chiropodists - Opticians - Beauticians - Dentists & Hairdressers - provided they wear face masks - should have been classed as Essential Workers jusr like Off-licences are. The little pleasures of life. Brian & I have a Lady (who has done My Hair for Years) who visits once a Fortnight to do our Hair (peripetetic) on a Thurday Evening ! She still comes provided we both have a shower first and we all wear masks. I have a Friend who makes Masks (10 for £10 = $13) so we are not depriving the NHS ! I presume you visited the Village Barber (short back & sider for a fiver) and a chance to put the World to rights. In the USA in some States - Barbers Shops (& Quartets have reopened). The Pres has his own Full-time Barnet Engineer ! You*ll morph into a 60s Teddy Boy with a Tony Curtiss & DA ! Thanks for scaring !
Blessings & Peace to You & Yours
Love Angela & Brian 🧡🤍💙🤍🧡
.....ohhhhh!!!!!!! so that’s me I see every morning.
Thanks Gold
My absolute pleasure mohangupta.
Andy
P.S.
Loved the song, like Dean.
Mine's getting really bushy - i think there's a bird nesting up there somewhere.
I would not be surprised, obviously the bird in my hair would be a goldfinch or or sixty of them.
