I wonder if after all these weeks of lockdown it is time for some personal grooming this weekend. I came across this a few days ago and thought it might be an entertaining idea for some of you...……..

Wealthy Romans, both men and women, would have all their body hair plucked,

including pubic hair.

OUCH!!

I used to have an epilator machine that did just that! I think they still sell them but waxing can be just as painful. Patsy x
