Mrs played a good prank on me....
Discussion
So, Saturday afternoon and I ask Mrs P to do my fortnightly 'scalping' before we go out for the evening.
I always have it clippered with no guard on, so basically a 'zero'. It makes me feel better about the parts of my head where my hair now refuses to grow
Anyway, she clippers my hair, says to me "Happy with that?" and starts to put the clippers away.
I ran my hands briefly over my head to do a cursory check and reply "Yes thanks" before trotting off into the shower.
Anway, I come out of the shower and get ready to go out......exfoliate, Tony Hetherington style face cream, nice aftershave, the works. I look good, for a 38 year old, knackered squaddy.
For some reason she cannot look me in the eye, but makes the excuse that she's 'busy getting ready' and for some reason the 3 kids keep giggling every time they see me. The 5 year can barely contain herself.
Still, the penny doesn't drop. I check in the mirror in case I have something on my face, like tooth paste. But nothing.
"Oh well" I say to myself as the Mrs makes an excuse for the kids saying something like "They are excited cos Britains got Talent is on"..........
So, we go out, and walk the half a mile to our friends who we are out with for the evening, me blissfully aware of how I look. I get a few odd look from people, but nothing more so than usual!
When we arrive, we have a glass of bubbly with our friends when suddenly my mate nearly chokes on his drink and shouts "What the f
k is that, you bender!?" 
I'm in total shock and ask him what he is on about.......so he then takes a photo for me. At this point my wife looks very sheepish and starts apologising in a really false, mocking manner.
She was quite proud of her handywork.....and I had to spend the evening looking like some Grant Mitchell/Attilla the Hun inbred.
fking students!
I've warned her that revenge is a dish best served cold......

Do your short stubby pongo arms not reach the back of your head!? Did you not check for stray hairs?
I did, but in a hurry, and the odd thing is when you put your hands to your head to feel, the natural reaction is not to make your hands go all the way to the middle...try it! Did you not check for stray hairs?i can't believe I didn't feel it to be honest, but all credit to her.......

Easier to fix than when Mrs Puggit accidently forgot to put the guard on my clippers and left me with the inverted version!
We had a guy at work who that happened to a few years ago.....it looked like he had been attacked by a bear
After that his knickname was "Bear-claw"
