So what frivolous things have you bought lately? Why?

[Big Sandy]

I allow £25 a month for haircuts.

Then spend it on vehicle parts!

I use a set of wahl hair clippers too... Had them for over 20 years, had to put 1 new blade on in that time.

Nose hairs.. Well. I used to smoke, and once filled my lighter, and somehow managed to turn the flame up full. Lighting a dout, the flame went straight up my nose, stung a bit, but didn't have any nose hair on that side fir ages!

I need something for my ears and nose hairs

Go to a Turkish barber. They flame them off. And they're cheap.

I had that done along with a shave in Egypt but at a Turkish barbers.
The shop owner decided to use me as a Guinea pig for his apprentice.
The shave was great but the flaming cotton bud lark resulted in a burnt ear, a row, an unpaid bill, threats made with a cut throat razor & the Police being called!

Buy a sub £5 electric clipper @BAD LUCK DUCK.
Chas is trying to get you arrested!

in Egypt

Serves you right.

 

[DD67]

Serves you right.

Egypt is a great country.
With some of the best scuba locations in the world.

Sounds like you had a Brazilian and they singed your nuts

One thing I know about Turkish barbers is they know fuck all about being a barber...
No one I know will use them after seeing some very bad results on others that wish they had never heard of them...Most are just covers for organised crime and money laundering anyway...

Barbers are not my field of expertise, sorry

I thought you might still be holding a grudge since biblical times?
They weren't big fans of you Yids, were they

 

[Don the Don]

"Dagoes", the lot of them I would trust not one as far as could throw them

To be fair I'd have given the same response if you'd said anywhere

 

[Don the Don]

you could have this problem:

 

[Sarky B’stard]

An air fryer. I know. I know ok? But it’s turned out to be a bit of a find. Fantastic for seafood and great chips without greasing the entire house.

 

[chas]

My youngest speaks highly of them. If I had more room in the kitchen for another device I'd be tempted but you can't fry anything wet like battered fish so it'd never replace the big oil fryer.
Will it make chips from potato? As opposed to frozen pre blanched chips?

@BAD LUCK DUCK
I think you need to pay Sarky a visit. It's a slippery slope from an air fryer to a food mixer.
And God alone knows what unspeakable acts of depravity will occur inbetween!

Do you have to bring your sexual fantasies into every thread

Yup. Dug to cooked last night in 30 mins. Blanched in boiling water and tossed in smattering of lard before crispy brown.
