I have a business meeting tomorrow. I went to a place on Main St in Lansdale, PA to get a trim.
I'd never been there before but since a great LHS is 3 doors down I couldn't help but notice.
4 chairs and a wall of mirror.
I popped in at 12:05. Looked like the usual business (what would I know never being there before- but it seemed "familiar").
I glanced to watch when it might be my turn, there was one other before me. Now, it was my turn.
"Hi, business, clean up, trim out the ears".
That's all I said.
A knowing face acknowledged.
Twenty minutes, a swirl in the chair.
The business at hand concluded with a fresh hot lather and straight razor clean uP!
I hadn't heard a straight razor slap leather in 20 years (my uncle, just haven't seen him in 20 years)- 40 if you count Nick's (Nick Dobryna- Seville and Terrace- who did our hair when we were...)
Now that's nice!
Hot lather, a close shave and trains calling!
In the background was the 5 chime toot of whatever was going thru town. I was dreaming of Chattanoga Choo Choo.
