I did have a funny thing happen many years ago..
It was in the early 80's when women were dressing like wannabe Madonna slags and blokes were into guy-liner and perms... anyway, in those days i had long wavy highlighted hair as did most of the lads in our little 'clique'. Thinking about it, we would have made an excellent Bon Jovi tribute band. lol... One Friday night about midnight i was walking up the road on the way back from the pub, it was really quiet and the streets were dead... behind me in the distance i heard the sound of a big-bore exhaust and the unmistakable BOOM BOOM BOOM of the the shit dance music from that period. The car got closer and closer and slowed down as it got nearer, i thought 'Fuck here we go'... in that area cars full of lads pulling up and jumping guys on their own was an everyday occurence, so i prepared myself for a good old scrap. Anyhow as the car got close i heard shouts of "Oi gorgeous", accompanied by loads of wolf whistling. I turned around as the car pulled up at the kerb and with my deep voice simply replied "Alright mate".... I'll never forget the look on the face of the lad who was hanging out of the passenger window doing all the shouting and whistling,
i've never seen a face go from being white to bright red in a flash like that before! He turned to his mate the driver and said "Fuck, it's a bloke". The car might have only been a little MKII escort, but that thing accelerated away like a fuckin' Ferrari!
That was enough for me to get all my hair chopped off a few days later.
