A close shave...

I decided that I was going to shave my head.  This is something that I have wanted to do for a very long time, but felt a certain restriction about actually doing it.  This past weekend that all changed, and I decided that i would have a bit of fun along the way, do crazy hair styles that I wouldn't ordinarily do... and this is the result.

 

After a patchy shave I decide to go and have the full barber experience, and so I now have a smooth head that smells of mens after shave... I was having images of Sweeney Todd when I sat in the barber chair, as the barber flicked open his shiny blade.  Thankfully, i did not to end up a victim of Mr Todd...

The Known and the Unknown

I have just over two weeks before I leave the UK and there is still so much up in the air. Right now the biggest unknown is what will be my initial destination once I leave the UK... India is my intended initial destination, but without a visa I will have to fly to Nepal first and apply for an India visa from there.  I have attempted to submit an India visa application four times, and I finally managed to get them to accept the 4th one, as up to now (for various reasons) they have not wanted to accept my application. So I should know by the end of next week whether I have a visa or not; and consequently where I will actually be heading – Nepal or India.

What is known on the visa front is that I have been granted an Australian visa (huge sigh of relief!), so i will definitely be going there! I occasionally have moments of excitement when I realise that I have the opportunity to dive the Great Barrier Reef... ;-)

My dissertation on 'the meaning of life' is nearly done, although the big unknown here is whether I will be allowed to graduate or not, as I do not have the required amount of client hours...  all shall be revealed at some point down the line...

All I can do right now is rest in the unknown and just watch how things unfold...  I will let you know how they pan out.
