An enterprising Hairdresser has solved the perennial problem of what to do about unsightly hair clippings, and the crippling cost of employing staff to sweep it up.

She has set up a new salon, The Edge Clip Joint, in a plein air or al fresco location, on the edge of town.

“The hair blows away. No more expensive, surly apprenctices grumbling about sweeping. And I’ve doubled my client base, pulling trainspotters away from the competition, as the salon has a great view of the Main West Line, the Perthville Freight Depot, and the Perthville Junction.”
