How do feet produce dandruff?

You are Sam Gamgee and I claim my five pounds :D
The white bits are Lillys hairs Chas πŸ˜”
I have no plans to clean them off mate.
Excellent guess re the snide Crocs though. Mrs DD got me them for Christmas years ago for a laugh. But I honestly think they are great for nipping out too the garage or too the bin etc.
They are stylish in their own special way πŸ€”

Never worn 'slippers' in my puff. The wife tried her best to get me to but she finally had to settle for getting me to wear sort of baseball shoe things. For preference I would wear boots all the time but, when we had laminate flooring she was constantly nagging about the black rubber scuff marks I left everywhere. Now she looks disdainfully at my oily, stained baseball shoe things and every year or so she 'surprises' me with a new pair and is then disgusted at how quickly I can make them look like an oily rag.

During the first lockdown I talked Mrs DD into borrowing some hair clippers from a friend & having a bash at cutting my hair.
She got really good at it. Not always 100% but never worse than 90%.
So I decided to purchase her/us a set of clippers.

I looked at all the w@nky Chinese copies but eventually decided to go for the real deal.
Wahl clippers seem to be the industry standard for quality & reliability. But they can be extremely pricey as well. Β£65-Β£85 isn't unusual for their mid range clippers.

Then I found these "Wahl Vari Clip"...

They come with a 3yr warranty.
So at twice per month DIY use they should last much longer than that.
Having used them for the first time yesterday I can confirm that they do a superb job.
Thought this post might be of interest to those of you with simple crew cut hairstyles πŸ™‚

I eagerly await the numerous "hairdresser" gags πŸ˜‰

Do they have a special attachment to do your ears and nose?

If anyone is interested my son has one of them lawnmower 4.0 man bits clipper....super safe apparently...Yours for £30 only used once and it might still have a small portion of scrotum still jammed in the blades 😲
Please tell us that he had to emerge from the bathroom with the clippers still attached. And get someone else to free his ball sack! 🀣
