Turkish barber rant again. After the first one I talked about on here who shaved four months worth of hard earned pubic hair off my face and neck, I went to a different one the next time I got a haircut. They did an OK job, the beard looked fine but he also took a fair bit more off my chin than I wanted because, well, he barely understood English. £18 for a haircut and beard trim seems a bit steep but it is what it is. 
 

I went back today, explained loudly and clearly that I wanted the lines fixed but I want to keep it growing more on my chin so just a small tidy up on that part of my face would suffice. 
 

Against all odds, he understood what I said and cut my hair and trimmed the beard exactly as I wanted. Did the old burning the ear thing, did my eyebrows. Then he said what sounded like “Face mask wash?” to me a couple of times and seeing as I couldn’t understand what he was on about I shrugged my shoulders, told him I had no idea what he meant and asked what he thought. He then pointed at the price board up on the wall and said “It is same one” so I thought “fuck it” and told him OK. So he gave me a little face mask and then bent me over the sink (oh yeah) and washed my face. Job done. 
 

Get to the counter afterwards to pay the man and he pointed at the option on the board that said £30, which had a list of stuff, including things that I didn’t even get, like a wet shave and a hot towel. I only had £20 cash on me because it was £18 last time I went in there. At first I said “I’ll have to nip out to the cash point mate because I’ve only got a twenty on me” but then I thought actually no, you’re not charging me an extra £12 for splashing a bit of water on my face. Trying to mug me off, you cunts. 
 

So I said “hang on, you pointed at the board and said it was the same one. Eighteen quid. It was £18 last time I was here three weeks ago. If you’d said you were gonna charge me £30 because you washed my face, I’d have said no.” Then the pair of them started talking in Turkish,  almost certainly calling me a tit and saying I’ve got a shit ginger beard anyway. Then he tried again insisting it was £30 and I said no, no chance and we had a bit of a stand off. Eventually the other fella who had a better grasp of English just waved his hand and said fine. So I put the twenty on the counter and walked out saying again that if they’d told me they were gonna charge me £12 for washing my Face I’d have said no. 
 

I’m pissed off now because he’s done a good job but I can’t go back in there because I had a row with them. Also thinking back, because they were trying to take the piss I shouldn’t have just left the twenty note there, I should have waited for the £2 change as a matter of principle. 
 

I fucking hate Turkey, me. 
 

Fortunately like most High Streets these days there’s no shortage of barbers to choose from. Next time I’m gonna go to one of the two barbers that are a bit more expensive, have longer queues but are run by English fellas.

 

I’m done with the Turkish twats. 

Maybe it's time to try a Kurdish barber instead.

That’s not right. Apparently Gaza has to have the telly on very loud to go to sleep. Nobody would share a room with him at away games becuase of it. 

So he doesn't hear the bombs being dropped around him?

The needless dropping of personal pronouns. Why? What does it save?

When I tweet about this later I will be saying 'I just made an inconsequential and tedious post on TLW' NOT 'Just made an...etc.'

Guilty as charged.

 

Or should I say, ‘I’m guilty as charged’

Not an issue for him at home in his mansion, named Tyne Palace.

Not sure mate. What do you reckon? 

…like she’s come in hoping tea’s on the go and because it’s not then gets straight on with it without even taking her coat off. 
 

 

I may or may not have done this in the past

Touch screens. Stupid fucking touch screens. For some reason my stupid cold hands don’t seem to register. Buying a McDonalds or train ticket is fucking infuriating. And no one believes me. They say I’m doing it wrong.  Then they watch as the fucking stupid touch screen doesn’t register MY FUCKING HANDS.

I get exactly the same sometimes, with phones too. My hands are usually bone dry so that might be it I guess.

Can we be clear on this. She comes in and becuase you have spent all day on here making up competitions, there’s no tea so she cracks on with making it but you’re back on here moaning because she doesn’t take her coat off first.  Is that right ? FFS. 

Maybe I should start killing pensioners all day or thank my lucky stars she isn't a tory? 

 

Also she was making herself a vegan snack, I'd already eaten you assumptive cunt

Mobile phones are my problem. Totally unresponsive sometimes then all of sudden its got a life of its own and all sorts of shit opens up.

My finger hovers an inch above the screen, next thing, I'm looking at someones profile or checking the weather in Tokyo.

Cheese mites. Now, I like my cheese, Gromit, but apparently every time I take a bite I'm swallowing thousands, if not millions of the little twats.  And their shit. And their piss. Why oh why do the fucking TV programmes have to tell us about evil little gits like that?  I was happy in my ignorance.

 

I also like sausages so shut the fuck up everybody. I really don't want to know.
