Get your beards out for the girls

[Goatboy]

Well in a fit of boredom, (everyone on the ward is asleep at 1:30 in the afternoon) I decided to Viking myself and show off my impressive chopper at the same time!

Whiskers are coming back nicely now too, is your recovery progressing well?

Your hangover must've worn off

I'm feeling pretty chipper, got told off yesterday for only using one stick (supposed to be 6 weeks before attempting that). Have been nipping out for walks (and the odd roll and sausage as a treat from the café) whenever I can. The only thing holding me in are my INR levels for my warfarin.
Got the last of the staples out of the wound yesterday - very cool set of little pliers they use always had stitches before.
Everyone else is as said passed out asleep after lunch and not doing their exercises. Think I may be being released tomorrow (so that I can go raiding now that I have done my Viking passport picture) so the damsels better watch out as a beardy Viking is hobbling their way soon!
I just need your lady pal to knit me a nice cosy boat jumper as the sea is dam cold up here in Scotland.
Cheers for asking,
ATB,
GB.

There's a name for men who don't have beards...its women...

Unless you're a dwarf, then it's the pointyness of the hat.
I shaved mine off last year as I was worried about the badger cull.

Sounds like you are on the winning side of a long fight, congratulations i really know how hard something like that is on the body and mind, i live with a permanent spine problem nowadays but the first 3 years it owned my life, i am now also on the winning side of that fight (touch wood) but it is still a fight.

I am politely trying to get her to do me another possibly in dark grey, sadly she does not need any of my skills currently and is needles deep in new projects.

That's all good news... Apart from for the nurses, I bet it's a lot more satisfying to care for someone who takes a proactive role in their rehabilitation than have to bully patients into it I would be a useless nurse... I'd've been anointing your beard with oils, combing and urging it to grow back strong and thick and completely disregarding your actual reason for being in

You're looking great lovey. I think if you look around you, you'll probably notice the ones who aren't are semi or fully beardless. I'm right aren't I?!

This is giving me beard envy mine may make a return ,,,,

I am indeed on the home straight of a bit of a fight and I've found attitude makes a big difference. Got to make sure I find something to smile about everyday, and if you can make someone else smile too then it's a triple word score. But yes they've cobbled be back together and the Samson like qualities of my beard have enabled my strength to return.

I actually have a couple of nice jumpers, a very warm oiled wool Nordic job amongst them. Though with loosing 12 stone last year they're a wee bit on the roomy side. Though this does me allow to smuggle redheaded ladies under my jumper .

Turbogirl you know you're very right, there isn't another beardy in the ward. Even the slightly mad submariner closeted in the side room down the way is sans beard. He should have a lovely white one like Uncle Albert in Only fools shouldn't he?

So remember the hirsute credo: -

My Beard and my kilt sometimes encourage me to play blues in a band. In this case, bottle-neck slide guitar.



And sometimes, my beard simply enjoys spending time discussing philosophy with a new friend,,,

 

[TurboGirl]

that is a super cute picture haggis!

...Though with loosing 12 stone last year they're a wee bit on the roomy side ..

That's a stone per month! Outstanding work.

 

[TurboGirl]

Well, I'm feeling sadly left out and we're in need of a bump so here's my contribution to the pursuit of long luscious locks....

 

[Haggis]

Turbo Girl,
When I see unshaven ladies, I well remember the mature ladies of my youth, at a time when I was only just noticing women in general. We would visit the houses of friends, and these ladies would always seat us children around the table to feed us something wondrously sweet. I would watch them putter and catch the odd bit of hair here and there. Now, these many years later, when I see such photos, I am immediately torn between improper thoughts, and the desire for a piece of cake,,,

Very sensual pic TurboGirl, me likey likey i bet it is peachy soft an nusselable

 

[TurboGirl]

Awww guys thanks for being the type of accepting folk who don't dislike a nonconformist, non fashionable and natural lass I post a pit picture on Facebook every year to combat the self appointed style police and let ladies know that it is okay, even erotic, to not be a slave to the great God, Commercialism

its such a magical time of life you describe, haggis the influences set the pattern for the person for years to come. Its great for kids now to see beards and body hair as natural, healthy and desirable symbols of adultery

 

[GGTBod]

I have this deeply held romantic fantasy of running off into the woods naked (except for my boots and my knife, i'm no Ed Stafford afterall) with an all natural woman and starting a tribe

Here we go,

[GGTBod]

That is some serious bull you are posting there Si, kudos for joining us facial hair flashers

 

[John Fenna]

I had to get on this thread!

 

[TurboGirl]

You two are very late on parade I was wondering where some of the lovely beards I've stalked in the woodlands were hiding! I love how you lads all have your own styles, cuts and mixes of shave and trims. I'm so lazy, I just leave everything to grow, im sure I'd be the same if I had facial hair

I was surprised to talk to my freind who removed his about how they can feel funny to lie on. Apart from convenience, warmth and the ability to cover chins are there any other side effects beyond the obvious man-enhancing lovely looks? Is it nice to be stroked or is that a social no-no?! Its verrrry hard to resist!
