    What a wise reminder, Belinda. So true! I love the overall, homey, small-town feel of this scene.

    Knock, knock, two bits! Now, I’ve got the song in my head! I’ll have to listen to the whole thing to get the earworm out. 🤣I love old barbershop signs.

    This is an interesting picture. I remember seeing the red-and-white striped pole outside the barbershop in our nearest town when I was young. Have just looked up the origin of this:
    “Ambroise Pare, a 16th-century Frenchman considered the father of modern surgery, started his career as a barber-surgeon. The look of the barber pole is linked to bloodletting, with red representing blood and white representing the bandages used to stem the bleeding.”
    I haven’t seen one for years as these days few hairdressers even advertise themselves as ‘unisex’ anymore – men know they can have their hair cut (and styled) in what were formerly the domain of women’s hairdressers.
