Spottedlaurel Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 Thought this was too good to await my next Spotted's Spottings update: Seen several times just outside Thetford on the A11, a visit to dispose of some asbestos sheets to the grimmest industrial estate in Norfolk on a foul day at least had the upside of letting me finally photograph it.

Ex-library wagon?All industrial estates and retail parks are grim and they all seem to suffer worse weather than everywhere else.Great spot, can you imagine getting a haircut in that on a blustery day?

pompei Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 Brilliant spot! Particularly like the badges, and the coiffeur's name on the grille Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pandamonium Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 Would have been better with Sweeney Todd written on it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reallyloud Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 Excellent. How enterprising! I think it would have been better with those barber shop images of 'just for men' type hair cuts on the side.Next time you'll have to go in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin Case Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 Great, I can just see the barber discreetly enquiring 'and something for the weekend sir?' as he holds up the mirror so you can approve the finished haircut from all angles Quickly dons anorak. Yes that could well be an ex-library van or possibly even a mobile shop, and from the position of the front axle it looks as if it could have been built on a Bedford SB bus chassis.

r.welfare Posted March 29, 2008 Share Posted March 29, 2008 Top spot SL! I hope it has those faded 1980's Black & White photos of people with mullets etc that you sometimes see in dodgy barbershop windows.Although it's been a long time since I've had to go to a barbershop - for different reasons to you, of course. Being married to a hairdresser and thus having access to the clippers to give myself a regular "No.1 Phil Mitchell look" helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dean36014 Posted March 29, 2008 Share Posted March 29, 2008 I honestly can't remember, nothing fancy otherwise it would have stuck in my mind. I'm a hgv driver and at the time was on loads of nights out, me hair was scruffy, needed a trim, £4 later and it was done! In and out in about 5 minutes.I can give you a full description of most the snack bars down the A11 though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pompei Posted March 29, 2008 Share Posted March 29, 2008 Sounds like a mobile bordello, Grimsby stylee - although you'd probably get change from £4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
