Classic youthful hijinks

Think I read quite recently that it’s not referring to the tears that you cry, but the tears in your hair - as in, split ends.

It’s one of those classic misunderstanding things that the company never thought to correct as it sold more shampoo - just like the idea that buying new shoes suddenly gives you the ability to walk up walls.

There is a road called this near me

someone used white paint and a pen to turn it into Fartington Road

Running through the wheat fields.

surely not (are you on the windup and I’m being thick?)

it’s sold to be used on babies - babies don’t get split ends

If anyone’s being thick here, it’s me - for I am not on the wind-up, I definitely read (or heard) this.

Let’s take it to MumsNet: No more tears?

The TV adverts used to say ‘tears’ as in crying tears.

Not even a specially shaped sign can save the River Uck from that kind of treatment…
