Velcro

I'm still getting used to the baldness, its a weird feeling. It's also difficult to regulate the heat. I have had to put on and pull off the hoodie because my head gets too hot, too quickly and then gets cold really quickly. So that's frustrating, but I'm still smiling, it was a fantastic afternoon and I'm still making money. I received £2 extra from one of the people who sponsored me at the school Halloween disco. I am putting in money of my own that I have collected in 1p's, so that's a whole quid. Doesn't seem much, but I also put £3 together for the Pudsey teddy scratch off game, didnt win, but wasn't bothered as much as youngest, who also lost out to my cousin who won the teddybear.

Last night's total was around £21 million, that's a good figure, but money is still coming in, and I sent off an old mobile phone to generate them another £80, so its still coming in.

The one frustrating thing about having no hair, or stubbly hair as they couldnt cut much closer to the scalp is it feels like velcro. Whenever I come to take off my baseball cap or hoodie, I have to almost tug at the garment, and when I turn over in bed I'm pulling the duvet over with me, very weird. Fortunately I didnt wake with the pillow stuck to the back of my head by the spiky stubble, so that was good.

I kind of feel like not wearing the bandana, sort of 'Wear it loud and wear it Proud' sort of anthem, in a Scottish accent obviously. Can't think who said it, but it does sound good.

I'm glad David sent the photo, I've not stopped saying Thank you to it yet.

However, once tea is over tonight and beds are made up since I stripped them and then went out and forgot about them, I'll need to return to my study. It's been a fantastic lead up to the weekend and I'm still thanking people.

So if I've missed anyone out - THANK YOU ALL!

It has grown since, fortunately. Was worried about waking up with pillow stuck to my head. It just feels like velvet now, like curtains you run your fingers back through. Textured kind of.
