Greetings from Oz by nuts on 08 Sep, 2011 18:02

I've been lurking for a while and really enjoying the posts, the excellent advice and the camaraderie and support on the board.
I've recently turned 70 and have been sly for over 7 years now and bearded for 45 years. My wife and two children have never seen me without a beard! Always had short hair and wanted to go sly for years but took until 2004 before I took the plunge. My wife didn't like it at first but now she wouldn't have it any other way; in fact recently didn't shave for a week and she said get rid of it. She would prefer a goatee to a full beard but only time will tell on that one.
I'm from Oz, retired from working for the government and have also been a travel writer for many years. During my travels have noted how common the sly look has become particularly in cities not so much in rural areas. On a recent trip to Europe there were large numbers of bald heads everywhere and it is very common in Australia now. Even top business executives are sly.

Welcome to the club. The sly look suits you very well. I will show my dad your picture, he is over 70 and I keep telling him to shave completely bald, he has the perfect head shape to do so....instead he is letting his hair grow long

I'd be interested to hear your father's reaction Valido. Tell him it is never too late to go sly. Let me know if he does.
