I get a remarkable amount of information, as well as a haircul. But last week our conversation was very short indeed.
We heard loud cries of 'Fire'! coming from upstairs. Customers and barbers rushed out of the shop immediately. We
certainly were a funny sight to passers-by! I had a white sheet round my neck and my hair was half cut. My barber was
close behind me with a comb and a pair of scissors in his hands. The man who had sat next to me was not so lucky.
There was soap on one side of his face and his barber ran after him, holding a shaving-brush in one hand and a razor
la the other!
