The “Friendly mutton chops” look would be my choice. And of course ending with either the Chaplin/Hitler or possibly the Ron Mael. I will! I'll be going Charles Manson -> Peter Sutcliffe -> Heinrich Himmler 1 hour ago, chrisp65 said: Doing something similar so I can wear shorts.

Well, i'm back in the office in a coupe of weeks. The hair has been pure lockdown laziness combined with seeing how long I can grow it. Its not *that* long for 20 months, it seems to have stopped at the base of my neck. I'd have never that attempted it if things were 'normal'. Just the fact I've been WFH since March '20 has enabled this behaviour! The beard was a challenge with a work colleague, which has kind of stuck and became 'me'. Again, it's not that long for nearly 3 years. Its more thicker (insert Kenneth) than long. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genie Posted August 29, 2021 Share Posted August 29, 2021 I’m almost 40 and can barely grow a ‘tash. Zero chance of a beard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xela Posted August 30, 2021 Share Posted August 30, 2021 Well, the beard has gone. I appear to have inherited a few more chins than I remember. I currently resemble a less cooler version of this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regret that decision very much Have done the same . . . from behind, I look like a thumb But the alternative is pretending I'm not going completely bald, and that would be even more cringe, so. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I then missed the important clue when she got a snack bar out her bag and it was chick pea and before I could fake my own death, she Asked me “do you believe in God” and then started showing me passages of the bible on her phone and spent the next 99 mins of the flight trying to convert me to the Jehovah Witness faith Snip Just boarded for the return flight and she is in the seat next to me again , before he realised what was happening I got the boy to sit there whilst I’m safely on the other side of the aisle 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xela Posted September 3, 2021 Share Posted September 3, 2021 All the hair has gone now. Practically floated home. I do appear to have gone a bit 'thinner' on top and my hair has receded a bit. I could easily hide that with long hair! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Albrighton Posted September 3, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted September 3, 2021 I will be of the smaller subset generation who are too young to have seen/remembered the advert when it first aired, but know of it from both cultural osmosis and also the character having his own short lived mid 90’s Mr Bean style sitcom.
