Grey Hair?
- 17 June 2011 06:33110633''Grey hair could be a thing of the past'' Scientists say as they announce they have discovered the gene that produces hair colour . The gene known as 'wnt' is vital in the production of colour in hair. PaulB has volunteered to test the new formula but BarryW claimed that the gene had come to late for some follicely challenged males and was nothing but socialist propoganda appealing to the masses but of no real substance like all labour policies.

I think therefore I am (not a Tory supporter) - 17 June 2011 06:43110635Is it a Labour policy then Marek - to provide every male with their natural colour ? It would certainly increase their percentage of the vote; I can't think of any other reason to vote Labour.
Some hair to have a colour, would be nice !
What about the follickly challenged ? Are we left to fork out £10,000 or more to have our follicles less challenged ? Is it only Tories this happens too ?
Roger - 17 June 2011 06:56110637Roger haven't you noticed Labour Councillors have more hair than the Tories......well in most cases.
If you knew what I know,we would both be in trouble! - 17 June 2011 07:04110639Yes I have John - you must have the magic elixir locked up at central office.

Me, I don't see what the problem is having a more distinguished hair-line and colour....
(PS PaulB - what is this 'orrible US spell checker doing on this forum trying to tell me to mis-spell colour...) - 17 June 2011 10:02110661Barry
How do you get the spell checker up?Marek
I think therefore I am (not a Tory supporter) - 17 June 2011 10:03110662Distinguished is definitely my hair colour (spell checker? - I've never encountered one on here!)
- 17 June 2011 13:17110696Not sure Marek - the word was underlined in red (in fact distinguished was too....)
It has never happened before and assumed it was an enhancement by PaulB...
Just had a thought - I am using Google Chrome now as a browser, maybe the spell checker is in chrome if no-one else has it. By the way, Chrome is excellent if anyone is fed up with Explorer (or Firefox...) - 17 June 2011 13:24110699there are a few technical problems at present that paul is working on.
i doubt that a spell checker has been added, must be a gremlin.
certainly hope it is not for real, i don't want to spend the rest of my life speaking american. - 17 June 2011 14:31110702I like Google chrome too, BarryW, opens up a few new things too. Get me, techno-whiz!!
- 17 June 2011 14:38110703As my daughter would say '' I suppose you think you're BCP...''Marek

I think therefore I am (not a Tory supporter) - 17 June 2011 15:09110707Potatoes is fine with Google Chrome but patotoes comes up with a red line under - so Google Chrome (using it now from my usual machine) does have it's own built in spell checker, isn't technology wonderful
- 17 June 2011 19:00110743Hey ho i'm there when PaulB tests that formula Marek,kinder got use to the professor look though
- 17 June 2011 19:22110753Grey (or white) hair is cool. I heard directly from the horse's mouth this morning on Radio 2 - if you can call Tom Jones a horse (or cool for that matter!)

18 June 2011 06:43110819diana,tom who?. - 18 June 2011 07:16110821Rumours that I have grey hair have been greatly exagerated. I assure one and all that its just a light shade of blonde. When I stand in front of the mirror under electric light it looks blonde alright, so there can be no doubt.
I am a direct descendant of the Nordic races you see. They came plundering and pillaging in southern ireland several centuries ago wielding mighty weapons. They had long blonde hair and beards to match. Very fierce they were with big choppers.
One of those guys, a Viking true, eventually quietened down and after several years of quiet reflectitude on his pillaging, married a girl from the west, a princess of Connacht... and now as a result of this alliance, yours truly stands before you today.
Not a lot of people know that. Im revealing it here as an exclusive.

...and who said the Irish had the gift of the gab. My God for shure you have kissed that blarney stone more than once. You not find us Polish aristocrats spinning such yarns or placing spurious stories on the Dover forum.Marek
I think therefore I am (not a Tory supporter) - 18 June 2011 13:48110886Marek that there blarney stone gets alot of kissing
