Pea had been growing his hair for around 32 years, a neat trick for a 20 year old. It had reached the point that he could use it to skip, which helped keep him in shape and gave him something to do.
It had therefore not been pleasant for him when he was given the choice of lose it or lose the roof over his head. After six weeks on the streets, he finally went to the barbers.
Dave and the rest of his brothers had never seen anything really wrong with the hair, though they had a common fear that it may make him stand out in the wrong kind of way. A group of drunks in Liverpool need very little excuse to start something. If nothing else, at least Pea would be safer walking around now.
It therefore came as quite the shock, when just days after his cut Dave recieved a phone call informing him the new look Pea had been attacked.
Pea had been going to get a takeaway, minding his own business, when he was punched in the face for no reason at all other than the sick amusement of a worthless scum. His glasses were smashed and his face was cut open requiring stitches.
The lady in the takeaway gave Pea a name and the event was then reported.
The police have a name, a time, a witness and most probably CCTV footage. What more do they need?

I dont think it is bad idea for him to have a hair cut.
