I remember the barbers shop, the old gent was there till the day he died i recon, his name was mr philpot & he used to walk his dog tied to his bycicle. You're right, he only had two styles of hair cut, the short back & sides or the back & sides short lol but i remember he was very kind & always had a smile.
