A couple of weeks ago I decided to shaving, just to see what happened. I have grown a beard before, but I kept it vaguely neat and didn’t go for the moustache. This time I just left it to its own devices.
It grew for about 10 days, then stopped. The moustache and beard never joined up. I’m not a very manly man, am I.
I didn’t think it looked too bad until yesterday. Then I had a haircut, and suddenly turned into a B-movie villain. It’s bad. It’s going this evening, but I thought I’d record it for posterity, since it’s unlikely to happen again. Click below if you really want to see.
See, told you. I even went to Tesco at 2300 to get some shaving foam.

You’ve got a pretty mean expression there, and could easily make “Henchman #1 of psychotic cyber-criminal with difficult upbringing and chip on the shoulder re. past run-in with hero”. 4 days is about the longest I’ve dared leave it - enough to pass for “Derelict #3 attending impromptu bottle-party by dumpster at rear of Philly boxing gym”
What a shame. We thought it looked good.
Maybe I should have kept it and applied for a job as an extra…
It’s a parent’s job to think that, isn’t it?
