    I am pretty horrified by all this.



    Net curtains?

    Some technical advice required regarding the decibel levels of hairdryers.

    You see, we've been having some terrible rows recently. I'm a chronic insomniac and, once I'm asleep, the slightest thing wakes me and I struggle to get back to sleep again. Malc, on the other hand, is an early bird and gets up for work at 5am. Every other day he will wash his hair. And dry it. Herein lies the problem; the noise his hairdryer makes.

    I thought I'd found a solution. I was hanging around the Scout hut the other night when I bumped into Brown Owl from the local Guide troop. As it happens she runs a hair salon and, as luck would have it, was about to replace her sit under hairdryers. These were, she assured me, very quiet indeed and I was welcome to help myself to one of them.

    Indeed it is very quiet. The problem I now have is that now Malc has positioned it over my armchair in the sitting room and spends an inordinate amount of time sat underneath it. He has his breakfast under it, reads magazines under it and, by dint of it having a built in radio, listens to Chris Evans under it every morning.

    I feel that this contraption is taking over our lives and I desperately need to find another solution. So ladies, can you recommend a silent hand held hairdryer? Do your other halves complain about the noise you make whilst drying your hair? Would you consider washing your hair at night instead of at the crack of dawn to please your partner?

    this must be, one of the greatest pieces delivered this year

    congratulations

    excellent

    more of it

    I think more along the lines of Bert & Ernie

    Personally I refuse to use a towel. I simply exit the shower then use a hairdryer until every hair is bone dry. Thanks to a well placed mirror I can also check for piles whilst drying "'round the back".

    But it does incur a huge laundry bill vis a vis the curtains.

    I think Gricer, Malc and Mr Joachim are all regulars at the Brown Star Saloon.
    Is that near the oxo tower?

    You need to explain to Malc that a hairdryer will give him split ends. Letting it dry naturally is the thing to do.
