Hello there faithful checkers of the blog that is scarcely updated nowadays what with me being unable to connect to the old tinternet on my laptop! I was having a conversation earlier today about the fact that even though you buy hair bobbles by the hundred, after a matter of weeks they seem to have vanished into thin air! I swear I bought a load of black hair bobbles but not one is to be found! Not even in obscure places like my sock drawer!
Hair bobbles seem to come in and out of existence as and when they please, when you least need one, that is when 3 hair bobbles will turn up in a bag you haven't used in yonks! You take your hair out of a ponytail to get in the shower, fling the bobble somewhere and then have no clue what you did with it later and can't find it anywhere, you go to sleep with a ponytail in and wake up the next morning, your hair flowing nice and freely, the bobble no where to be found, not even if you turn out your pillow case or anything!
I think the life expectancy of a hair bobble is about a day! Then they disappear and go to be with all the other bobbles from unsuspecting girls thinking ooh I've just bought some really nice bobbles today. I think the bobbles must have a life of their own, tormenting women everywhere by disappearing moments after being bought. Or this could be some clever ploy by the person that thought it would be a good idea to make colourful pieces of elastic, sell it to long haired women out there in the world needing to get their hair off their face to do useful things such as do sport, work in the catering industry, cook in their own homes etc etc but install some sort of instant disappearing element just to get them to buy more!
I can't imagine how big the number would be if it was surveyed as to how many bobbles women in this country buy in a year! I have a bobble on my wrist right at this very moment that is probably coming to the end of its life as it looks fairly well used and so has probably disappeared and reappeared on me several times before, I think it is due to do it again now that I've found it!
