Tell you what PG .....That mental image of Leslie Phillips is just getting stronger and stronger ! Watch out for mature smoothies in convertibles I say ! ;-)

Just have to put the word out on the street then PG. Don't worry if an exotic selection of louche characters seems to be shadowing you. Most of them will be fairly restrained.

>>I can also go to Paddington via Reading and make the tube part a lot quicker,
Definitely the way I'd do it. 2 stops from Paddington and the H&C line in my experience is much more reliable than others. I've been Slough - Paddington twice his week and the trains have been 30 to 45 minutes late or cancelled but there are plenty of them and if you're getting on at Reading you'll probably get a seat! Avoid the Circle and District lines - according to one TFL representative today most of the staff on these lines seem to have been afflicted by some Xmas bug that adversely affects their ability to turn up for work.

there'll be no more clues from me!
Don't need them PG. After consulting Those who Know, I think I know where you are going. Just a step from here too, but don't worry. I will still be snorting over my Terrorflag by the time they have transformed you. I don't have time to stare in through Salon windows. I believe you have let yourself in for the more bleak and boring walk of the two possibilities.
I won't even use my inside contact, the mother of a school friend of one of my grandchildren, a neurotic lady but a professional crimper and Mercedes driver. Make sure they know what you want and I'm sure they'll do a good job. Good luck anyway.
Is that thing for turquoise and yellow flashes still going by the way? Always quite fancied that for myself but I was too old and poor before it came in.
Bet you never thought I would have a cosy chat with you about hairdressing.

I hope your silence so far is a sign of celebratory contentment, PG, or that you trawled the Portobello for Christmas tat before leaving and haven't got home yet.
I trust our local crimpers have done you a bit of all right? In the up-and-coming Arab Quarter if my wild guess was correct?
I have been a little worried after teasing you about this last night. Of course you know I'm not a smoothiechops in a convertible, but I do hope you didn't keep thinking you could see me or my agents stalking you out of the corner of your eye and turning your head, thus risking neck and ear injuries from Ms or Mr Scissorhands...

Sold the convertible then eh ? ;-)

Don't worry Lud. Didn't go in the end - woke up feeling rough and couldn't face the stinky train. Thanks for the advice though. I'm well prepared for next time.
Drove to Reading instead and finished my Christmas shopping.
