I think rocketdog started before New Year, so he's had a head start ๐Ÿ™‚

Everyone at work thinks I'm odd(er than they did before). I think my students are impressed though.

Last Friday update tomorrow, before final photos on Saturday.

I currently look like a tramp. I think the beard will be staying, at least for a while, but it needs a bit of a tidy up.

The shadow on the wall makes it look a lot bushier than it is.

The beard has stayed, though in a slightly trimmed and neatened form. It's really hard using hair clippers on chins and under noses.

My last pics are above, c.6 weeks of growth. Shaving it off so quick leaves me feeling empty and small-chinned.

February beard anyone?

Not started in January nor a beard but we've just had a 'tash growing contest at work. 6 weeks worth of effort there. It started off as a laugh then it started to annoy some of the gaffers.....Result! ๐Ÿ˜€

This was at the end of February.

I went to the end of January without any trimming at all, but it now gets cut back to 'very long stubble' every weekend.

mine comes and goes, 4/5 weeks growth at a time then trimmed back. Trimmed at the moment. Has the potential to make me feel very scruffy and bum-like when I'm not working / trying to study.

Has that meerkat got enormous testicles, or is it a brown rock behind it?

323 days in, with 42 days of 2009 to go, who's still rocking the January Beard?

Mine's been trimmed back several times, though never to clean shaven, but I've still not shaved this year.

Wow, was just talking about the beard last night. Mine has been, gone, come back, been trimmed and been wet shaved twice for interviews (unsuccessful, next time it stays) and now remains as a perpetual stubble.

It will be back to full strength soon.
