Once upon a Danish farm, in the first quarter of last century, the only daughter of the family announced she planned to become a hairdresser.

The shock and horror was so thick on the ground, they say you could well have drowned in it.

"HAIRDRESSER?!?" Other family members reported fearing apoplexy was imminent, judging by his tomato-ish complexion.

"There's NO future in hairdressing. MILK COWS! THAT's the thing to do. The world will ALWAYS need milk."

**Actually, she did neither, becoming the Cook on a Doctor's fine country estate.
