More Uncle Bob!

Dear Undusted from Maidstone,

Before trying it on, you must perfect the 'walking backwards whilst concentrating intently on something in front of you. This is known as 'redirection', a technique employed by many illusionists of note. Hen Keeper Andy will then not realise that you are actually backing towards the dust bath because he will be distracted by what you are concentrating on.

Once you reach the dust bath, then feel free to look surprised as you bathe. This means that if you are caught, you can genuinely look shocked and say 'Gosh, I wonder how I ended up here!'

Who could be offended at a genuine mistake that could have been made by anyone, especially ladies of a certain age!

Cunningly yours, Uncle Bob.

  1. Dear Uncle Bob,

    Thank you for the advice.It worked a treat. Unfortunately, Hen Keeper Andy had filled the dust bath with builder's sand, and now one of us who once was white, is now bright orange.

    Do you offer beauty tips to get rid of the ginger tinge?

    Yours

    Dusted but Tangoed
