In fact the pussy willow is considered a weed in Australia. http://stca.tas.gov.au/weeds/wild-pussy-willow-%E2%80%93-a-ticking-time-bomb/<br />Sweet Peahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17175172836690042400noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3734114716319159508.post-37927532433798972252012-10-03T19:28:13.220+10:002012-10-03T19:28:13.220+10:00That banksia looks a little like a pussy willow.

I got the heated rollers after I got married so only had to have them in for a short time. Now I keep my hair VERY short to avoid the curls!<br />And yes, my mum had one of those nets too!Sweet Peahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17175172836690042400noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3734114716319159508.post-8238218526189335012012-10-01T00:30:49.805+10:002012-10-01T00:30:49.805+10:00Yes I remember those trips to the hairdressers.

You wear told to close your eyes while the stylist liberally sprayed this foul smelling lacquer all over your head, so that your hair was stiff and crunchy. <br />Worse than that, tho, was sleeping with rollers in. I have naturally curly hair, but my Mum would love to encourage it into ringlets with "rags", at least they were soft!<br />My mum had a hair net with tiny little pearl beads, which would house her bun.Kathhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04003521059890699861noreply@blogger.com
