Hello everyone on the Kirupa Forum!

Here is a website that Ive updated. Ive kept the structure and layout very similar, but have updated a lot of the graphics and look of the website. Before it was pretty much text based only with only blacks, whites and grays.

I hope you enjoy! Any feedback at all will be very helpful.

<h1>Sweeney Todd</h1>
<h3>13 April 2006</h3>
<br />
I had a bit of a traumatic start to the week. I decided on Sunday that I needed to get my hair cut. My mullet was completely covering my neck and the hair on the side of my head was curling into my ears so I had to find a hairdressers/barbers. On Monday I went for a little walk around Covent Garden, but all I could find were fancy hairdressers who charged £30 - £55 for a guys haircut. On Tuesday I hit the Yellow Pages, but the everywhere that was listed either didnt exist anymore or were fully booked. I did speak to one guy who had some free time and wasnt expensive. He did say that he had to meet me first though before he could decide if he wanted to cut my hair or not. If he didnt like me: no haircut! By Tuesday afternoon I was getting so desperate that I even contemplated visiting one of the many Afro-Caribbean barbers near where I lived.
<br />
<br />
Luckily late Tuesday afternoon I found Ginos. It was a proper barbers, wasnt too far away and wasnt too expensive. I rushed over there on Wednesday during my lunch break to get my mane trimmed. At first I felt like I was some stranger invading their little Italian world, but the guys were really friendly. More importantly, the haircut was good! I dont normally like having my haircut because I dont like looking at myself in the mirror and Im really worried that it may turn out really badly. But this haircut was a highly enjoyable experience all round!
