Paul's was only 17 euros, and believe me, they cut considerable hair (he always rocks a very short cut, and his current do is in RCMP territory now!)materfamiliashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16062766947897513369noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904021173466473381.post-58642380410479504492016-11-27T01:44:05.410-08:002016-11-27T01:44:05.410-08:00Thanks for saying you've enjoyed sharing my jo...Thanks for saying you've enjoyed sharing my journey, Rosie. It's been good having friends along ;-)<br />I'm sure there must be some truth to those stories about Naples, but I also think that much depends upon attitude, dress, behaviour, routes chosen, etc. And ours was just a daytime adventure. . . <br />materfamiliashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16062766947897513369noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904021173466473381.post-55438449289579905202016-11-27T01:42:42.192-08:002016-11-27T01:42:42.192-08:00I made up some chicken soup later in the week, and...I made up some chicken soup later in the week, and I'm almost better now (still wanting more sleep than normal, I must say!)materfamiliashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16062766947897513369noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904021173466473381.post-9649371940082394142016-11-27T01:42:11.111-08:002016-11-27T01:42:11.111-08:00Almost, Marie, thanks!Almost, Marie, thanks!materfamiliashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16062766947897513369noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904021173466473381.post-76537954841778851272016-11-24T21:45:30.525-08:002016-11-24T21:45:30.525-08:00A lovely romantic snippet...hope that you are feel...A lovely romantic snippet...hope that you are feeling better.<br />hostess of the humble bungalowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06453827257671312902noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904021173466473381.post-2113991277991654052016-11-24T11:34:29.643-08:002016-11-24T11:34:29.643-08:00A lovely romantic story from the nose to the noseg...A lovely romantic story from the nose to the nosegay.Ellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04174162283476551873noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904021173466473381.post-24965228819886791702016-11-24T10:35:16.050-08:002016-11-24T10:35:16.050-08:00My husband had his hair cut at the Galleries Lafay...My husband had his hair cut at the Galleries Lafayette - quite an experience. We made and appointment and were told to come back about 15 minutes later. My husband rocks a fairly west coast look, so to speak. Full bushy beard. When we return for the appointment, the lady (who made the appointment) looked<br /> at him as if she has never seen him before. Soon he is in a chair with a cape thing on and a hairdresser approaches him nervously, sort of combs his hair around a bit and then disappears. Another hairdresser arrives, same thing. Finally the third one arrives and after being assured that she does not have to do anything with his beard, just his hair, starts to snip the scissors around in the air surrounding his head, but doesn't really seem to be removing any hair. She stands back and is satisfied with the results and leaves. Brian actually had a very good haircut, despite the appearance of very little hair being snipped. I think the haircut cost 50 euro, more than my guy normally spends but we get such a chuckle out of thinking about it that it was worth the cost.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17195880939663379874noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904021173466473381.post-35398304789147087392016-11-24T08:13:32.982-08:002016-11-24T08:13:32.982-08:00Yes, it did make me chuckle too:) A long afternoon...Yes, it did make me chuckle too:) A long afternoon nap sounds perfect when you've been feeling unwell.Hope you're beginning to feel better now. How thoughtful of Pater ..such a gorgeous bouquet...beautifully arranged.<br />I've so enjoyed "travelling" with you.The weeks seem to have passed so quickly.Lovely for you to be back home for Christmas though.<br />Like you, I'd heard many negative tales about Naples and pick pockets.Glad to hear more positive comments from you. Your experiences in the markets sound wonderful ..so colourful.<br />Enjoy your last few weeks.You've looked great in all your pictures. I think, perhaps, travelling with a carry on encourages more adventurous dressing!<br />RosieRosiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15718521437964866609noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904021173466473381.post-28339949298437348332016-11-24T07:40:09.147-08:002016-11-24T07:40:09.147-08:00Funny story!
