Mick, I had a similar experience, grew a beard in the mid seventies, about the time my sons were born. Then in 1984 became president of my local...thought I'd clean up my act a little...just the beard...and kept a walrus mustache. I walked out of the bathroom and was greeted with, "hi, uncle Dave", quit shaving ever since.and,
