Beards
I can’t understand all of the fuss about Jeremy Paxman’s beard. I’ve had mine for nearly fifty years and my son, who is in his mid-forties, has never seen me clean-shaven.
It’s well-trimmed now, although in its more wild days, my beard graced the letters page of the Today program on Radio 4. At the time, there was trouble in Egypt and the BBC’s reporter there had a beard and he had a bit of trouble, as the Army and Police, were rather against those with beards, who they thought were Muslim fundamentalists. I wish i had a copy of that letter!
