[QUOTE=Flosshilde;146741]I have a beard.
I also have a beard. Got mine through lying on my back for a few weeks with a 'slipped disk', so why bother to shave. Although I did decide a few years later to return to a 'younger look' by shaving it off. However, before doing so I was involved in lighting a series of night scenes for a major film drama programme. Having a rest break during ' the small hours ' on one of these occasions, I was aware of a very attractive young actress sidling up to me from out of the shadows. " Has anyone ever told you that you look like Ernest Hemingway ? " said she.
Now, I ask you - would YOU shave off your beard after a remark like that ?
:
Um - was she paying you a compliment?

I grew a beard on a trek up to Everest Base Camp, because there were no washing facilities. When I got back,my boss took one glance and said that I looked like Captain Haddock, so I kept it for a few years. Beards are hell. Mine always looked like a poorly maintained hedge, and once it started to go grey before the rest of me, off it came.
We have a lot of bearded and downtrodden young husbands around here at weekends, pushing buggies dejectedly round the local shops. Apart from fungus that looks as it has been grown by leaf cutter ants, the poor dears usually wear baggy khaki shorts over knotted calves, and hideous sandals with a thong over the big toe. In my view, men under thirty should not be allowed to wear shorts unless they pass rigorous exams. End of rant.
I have a beard but I don't wear sandals.
