I've finally succumbed,
su-thumbed even!
Such a piffling thing...
the pain...
and me always boasting of having a
high pain threshold.
Not a bit of it...
quivering pathetic wreck, more like!
Any road, what decided it, was the thought of having to choose
between a wet shave, strop, cut-throat razor, you know the one?
Or sensuous, slippery, slithery shaving oil;
a Van Dyke, a Roy Wood (remember him?) full set,
or my current modus operandi...
a cactus impersonator.
In short...
me thumb can't pluck
the offending hairs, bristles
and hairy hemp that insists on
sprouting on my chinny, chin, chins!
Wish me luck...
dont go Thumbelina- you could always wax instead!
ReplyDeleteMust confess Bunny, I'm a tad worried that after the steroid injection, the hair might advance onto my treasure chest.

I am considering a hedge trimmer...............
ReplyDeleteGetting older does have some plus points, my eyes are going so I can not see the hairs, on the other hand I have just invested in a ten times magnification!!!! o.m.g.!!!!! Still, good for plucking purposes of the eyebrow kind and I am quite pleased when I look in a normal mirror, don't think look too bad!!! Love deluded of Cullercoats. p.s. hope thumb doc has some answers. jayne x
ReplyDeleteHope it goes well.
ReplyDeleteDo you get 'magic cream' first to numb the injection site? I know they do that for children but also think they should offer it to those of a nervous disposition!
Any road? Any road! I think you've picked up a little Yorkshire-itis !
ReplyDeleteBy the way, I've also just bought a new magnifying mirror for plucking purposes but it has a fault which makes it drag everything down on one side - so now I know what I'll look like if I have a stroke AND a hairy chin.
PS - about your previous post. I'm driving myself nuts trying to work out who Jean is!
