Like Rapunzel in her tower, Barbs Marshall looks down on the world from her high, state-of-the-art and very elegant loft in the Merchant City. Glasgow's changed alright! Razor City is now just the name of THE trendiest salon in town, the one she co-owns. Her appearances on TV's Morningtime Makeover have made her a local celeb - and a few bob into the bargain. Singing along with Dusty on the eve of her 39th birthday, Barbs counts her (mixed) blessings. Okay, she has The Mother who'd put years on you. But she's got some friends to die for. There's totally gorgeous Brendan (gay, of course), Alice (she's known forever) and Davie (the amicably estranged ex). Barbs knows she's every cliché in the Marie Claire. She's single, solvent, has the requisite ticking biological clock and finite set of functioning hormones. But real life throws in a few unexpected for Barbs as she realises that the fundamental things do apply, as time goes by.
