Woman walks into a hairdressers in Newcastle and says "I want a perm",

The hairdresser replied

"I wandered lonely as a cloud
That floats on high o'er vales and hills,
When all at once I saw a crowd,
A host of golden daffodils;
Beside the lake, ..........................."

Brighton. NOT KEMPTOWN!
Perhaps the radio was on a bit loud and the hairdresser misheard the woman? Fair play to the hairdresser for reciting quite a lovely poem.

But that would only work if the hairdresser wasn't from Newcastle and hence didn't
understand the accent. An unlikely event.

This joke is a lump of dogsh*t.

Hairdresser says "that wouldn't suit you - are you sure?"
So she said "yes - I can't stanz-a it the way it is at the moment".
Well "as you like it" was the reply.

He would first have said............" Do you have an appointment?"

The 'woman' has quite a sense of bluntness.

'I want' is all well and good, but not particularly conducive to a pleasant business or social interaction. And as for saying what kind of perm, let alone not even saying 'please', the manners are dreadful.

It's astonishing frankly that the hairdresser recited some of England's finest poetry, and didn't stick the curling tongs up her nose.

Awful behaviour.

You're just not getting this are you. He thought she said poem so why would he have asked her is she had an appointment? Unless of course he was running a "Learn poetry" course out the back but one would presume he would know who was booked on that.
You must know more Poets than Hairdressers.

Isnt 'perm' an abbreviation for 'permanent wave', so have you still got it?

No

This geordie right, goes to a literary festival and asks for a poem.

The staff there right, unbelievable as it sounds, give her a perm
because they happened to some curling tongs, a hair dryer and some of
those silver things you tie the hair up with. You couldn't make it up. .
