    Dyson hairdryer £299.99 ..... reeeeeally..... why would you???  :o evidence of some people having more money than sense. 
    Then on the radio I hear of young working families desperate to know how they’re going to afford to feed their families. 
    The world is totally out of kilter ...  :'(

    Maybe it dries your hair ten times faster than one for £29.99. You could then spend the time you saved buying other ridiculously overpriced items on the internet.
    Probably the same moron who risks their life overtaking car after car to end up a few cars in front of you at the same set of lights. What do they do with the seconds they've saved?

    Maybe they can't afford to feed the kids because they've just blown 300 quid on a 'designer' hairdryer.  It probably sits along side the 50 inch telly which is pumping out garbage from the full Sky package.

    My new hairdryer cost me £12.99 from Argos. What else could you want from a hair dryer but to dry your hair?

    Sometimes useful for drying varnish for a crackle effect and even the occasional wet dog after a bath.

    Don't get me started on those....

    Or the tailgating, 'I'm so important, and I'm in a hurry' drivers....

    Or the Christmas lights up and flashing out a migraine inducing display - in November...
    We seem to have some of those round here this year  :#
    Cheap hairdryers for me too. They're usually brilliant. Asda ones for me Lyn  ;)
    It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....



    I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...

    My wife's cheap hair dryer caught fire. I got in trouble for that one but how else are you supposed to dry paint in a hurry? o:)
    If you can keep your head, while those around you are losing theirs, you may not have grasped the seriousness of the situation.

    Patience?  Paint should dry naturally for a durable finish.
