    Oh, you ride a bike? That's good, my son does too, we got him a nice mountain bike from Halfords over the weekend. Only £70. You're not one of those that jump the lights are you?

    It's a truely horrific moment, the first time the hairdressers asks if you want "something done" with your eyebrows.

    What? Have I missed something?

    Cheer up chap, it's when they offer to do something about the hair that isn't on your head and is instead coming out of your ears and nostrils that you really need to start getting grumpy.

    2 weeks camping in cornwall with wife and kids .

    and a man gets his hair cut at a barbers

    a real man does it himself with the clippers unguarded and then runs the sterlings over to take the grade a bit shorter.

    Just back from a fortnight in Madeira - fantastic for walking, whether high mountains or levadas (some with a terrifying degree of exposure - huge drops off the side of a 50cm wide length of rock/concrete, some totally benign for an afternoon walk with granny).
    Definitely not a place I'd like to cycle, though; too many 25% climbs which seem to go on for ever. Most of the cyclists I saw were content to ride up and down the main drag into central Funchal from the hotel zone, some with seriously desirable road bikes. Two souvenirs for me; a dozen bar towels of obscure UK breweries bought by the kilo from a fabric shop I got dragged into, great for mopping sweat after a hard ride, and a rather nice winter-weight Berg cycling jacket for under 20 euros.

    Will probably fit in two separate weeks camping in UK later this year - no decisions as yet.

    Forgot the other souvenir; my wife bought a shopping bag for our sister-in-law and found a slightly used pair of tweezers left in it, presumably by the maker/shopkeeper...










    ..... which I've commandeered as they're absolutely ideal for removing those annoying nostril and ear hairs. :twisted:
