The return of the lock

Locks of hair which adorned the head of Egyptian pharaoh Ramses II around 3,200 years ago and which were stolen in France 30 years ago have been returned to the Egyptian Museum. They are now back on display.

Now a message for the person or persons who have been nicking the hairs from the top of my head whilst I have been asleep over the past 25 or so years. If you could please return and reattach these beloved artefacts it would be greatly appreciated. All is forgiven. I promised that I will not press charges!
