J wanted to go to Dundee to get his hair cut in some special salon that apparently caters well to the kind of styles the young men of today favour. It had been recommended by one if his pals.
"How much will you need for your haircut?" I asked.
"I don't know" says he "But it is a designer salon"
"£100?" I sighed sarcastically
"Don't be silly. What kind of haircut cost £100?" he replied
"Err. A designer one" I retorted
"Do you really think my friend would spend £100 on a haircut?"
"Yes, if he'd had an inheritance"

J rolls his eyes at this point then says "Just give me enough to more than cover it. Say £50"
"£50?!" I bellow "are you kidding?"
"It won't be £50 but if you give me that then I'll know I'll definitely have enough"
I open my purse. There is exactly £50 worth of notes in it. "I'll give you £40" I say "So I have a bit of money left for myself"

Off he goes. Meanwhile I go for a wander. Dundee has some great quirky features around if you look carefully. Didn't expect this one though! Had to take a photo of this cute wee fellow!

A little later J phones: "I've had my haircut and it was only £13, so since I've got money left over I'm going to Top Man"

"Really?!" I exclaim "That's MY change!".

I cannot wait to see how he manages his finances in a few years time cos he has no inkling of that sort of thing at the moment! I let him go to Top Man though cos I'm a soft-hearted Mum with no inkling of how to say no to my handsome lad!
