The Flaming Obvious.

Goldfinch60



Into the barbers I went,

Had my locks shorn,

Nice chat with the barber,

All finished, looks good,

Came out with less hair,

Less hair than I went in with.

I then waited,

Waited for what somebody would say,

As someone does every time,

Every time I get my hair cut.

They look at me and say,

“You’ve had your hair cut!”

I reply, “I know! I was there!”

Why do they say this,

Say the flaming obvious!

    Could be difficult for some dim-wits to recognise you!
    Or you could reply 'Nooo; really?!' lol.

    • Goldfinch60

      Very true Orchi.

        We say 'yep, it's still me, the last time I looked in the mirror anyway'.

        I get that, it's mostly out of shock!

        • Goldfinch60

          Quite likely 2781.

          You are irresistible, Andy. They want to chat you up. You gotta mention Mary early in the conversation.....😇

          • Goldfinch60

            I always do Dave. LOL

            Good one Andy! I am myself guilty of stating the obvious at times, I shall have to work on that.

            • Goldfinch60

              Thank you Bella, we must work on these things. LOL

              Lol. It pays to be bald. Great work.

              • Goldfinch60

                Thank you Thomas, it may well be, it is less expensive. LOL

                • Goldfinch60

                  There certainly isn't Neville.

                  Good point, well made, mate.

                  Thanks for the smile Andy. I think I am guilty of this, but then it might be worse if I said nothing. Him indoors likes to be noticed 😀

                  • Goldfinch60

                    My pleasure Cassie.
