Haircut 38 (29th August 2024)

Previous documented one was Haircut 37 in February 2024.

Fiona and I both went to Attractions in Honor Oak for this. It was a morning appointment.

First time I really noticed I have a bald spot.

Writing this in 2025. Completed the retrospective addition of all my haircuts from Haircut 20 in February 2015 up to this one in August 2024.

Haircut 37 (7th February 2024)

Previous documented one was Haircut 36 in April 2023.

This was at Attractions in Honor Oak in the afternoon, after a bicycle ride with my neighbour in the morning.

Haircut 35 (25th May 2022)

Previous documented one was Haircut 34 in July 2021.

This was at Barbaros in Honor Oak.

Rode the RideLondon-Essex 60-mile version yesterday. That was with a neighbour who works at Transport For London (TfL) on the organising and publicity team.

Way back in July 2017 I rode the RideLondon-Surrey 100 mile version. My cycle computer didn’t have data recording features back then. So I had to add it manually.

There are a couple of photos on those activity pages.

Haircut 34 (10th July 2021)

Previous documented one was Haircut 33 in August 2020.

All I know is this was on a Saturday.

Haircut 33 (14th August 2020)

Previous documented one was Haircut 32 in February 2020.

Fiona and I both got our barnets chopped back. No details on where this was, as I write this in January 2025.

It was hot enough to need a desk fan running overnight a couple of days ago. We were reading books in the neighbourhood garden during the daytime, in the dappled shade of park trees. Much like our lunches in Bloomsbury Square where we met in July 2010.

Haircut 32 (19th February 2020)

Previous documented one was Haircut 31 in August 2019.

This was, again, at Fiona’s by a local hairdresser who went freelance a while back.

Haircut 31 (22nd August 2019)
