If I buy a SCT do I have to grow a beard?

My wife is related to Ned Kelly but she doesn't have a beard. Thankfully.

Edit: She told me to write that she's beautiful, after that last comment. Things are back to normal now.

I found that in the past when I was involved with the public at the observatory, it helped to have a beard and stand beside a refractor....mut be a real astronomer.

My Avatar is self evident ...
Shaved it off for a while in the early 90's

We all have to compensate for something

Time for Alex to change his vote?

jungle11 (Greg) · #49 15-12-2008, 10:18 AM

Well, my vote is cast - I wear one now cause without it i look like a 12yr old schoolgirl!

Can't buy smokes or go to the pub without ID when Im clean shaven - punctures the male pride thingy...

David

This has to take the cake on all the polls I have seen on this forum,

Really, "how many IISsers have beards"!

erick (Eric) · #51 15-12-2008, 11:57 AM

My fault, Petra, for dredging up an ancient thread - it came up in a search I had done (that had nothing to do with beards, strangely enough)

To be fair, David did qualify his first post:- "....how many fellas on the site have beards...."

Eric
(the one to be blamed)

Hi Erik

LOL

I think that David needs to add beard and "man breasts" (oppppsss - can I say that on this forum

).

Cheers Petra

Bring up the poll! Might have to specify a minimum cup size!

Ric · #54 15-12-2008, 12:14 PM

Just a face caterpillar these days. Too many things get caught it when your riding with an open face helmet.

I used to have a big "Ned Kelly" job but my wife hated it.

Hi Erik

I notice that you live in BM. I lived in Underbank.

Cheers Petra

That newer area around the ridge? We are near the station.

spacezebra (Petra) · #57 15-12-2008, 12:29 PM

Hi Erik

Yes, that area used to have community pool and club house (i think).

I used to work in Melbourne so travelled from that station quite a bit.

Back to beards........ sorry guys.

Cheers Petra

Does 7-8 day old stubble count ???

Used to have a very heavy beard when I was in year 11 and 12 , had to shave it off when I took up my cadetship to become a chemist with BHP Steel , being cleanshaven was a safety requirement (to enable good sealing of face masks for gas rescue equipment).
Same when I returned later as an engineer.

Never bothered growing it back , wife is not keen on men with beards ....

Eric, why did you dig up this ole thread - man get a life LOL

Petra - Dave might like you with a beard
