I'm getting the grey now. I've always had the ginger tinge thanks to a Scottish Dad (and I think most people do anyway) but the grey is concerning when I'm only 27.

I'd like to think it's my maturity but it's probably directly proportional to how boring I am.

In fairness, my Dad's older than you so I was wrong from the start.

I'm assuming that your old man is a milkman? If so, I can't believe they still exist. I miss having milk delivered in a glass bottle. I don't miss Mum making me test the 6 bottles in the fridge for which were OK and which were sour. Disgusting job.

Grey is good - As long as mine stays in I don't care about the colour.

I've had Germans come up to me and start speaking in German.

They say it's the hair. 'Cause there ain't no socks and sandals on these hallowed feet of mine. A poofty Corbyn worshipper I am not

My thoughts exactly! Hair going grey is not a problem. Hair going is...!

For some reason, I've been asked a few times if I'm Ukrainian. Bizarre.
