<waves> although, I was there, I saw it, not sure why I need/want to
view the pics. Although captions might be interesting. Are there
captions too?

Oh and back to the original topic, overall, would you recommend it?
I think my time will come, and possibly sooner than I'd like.

I love having short hair. I can't recall the last time I had to comb
it. If it needs combing, it's too long. Also, it doesn't go into a
stupid wedge shape after wearing a lid.

No, if you can still comb it, as opposed to using a brush, it's still
too short.

>Also, it doesn't go into a stupid wedge shape after wearing a lid.


Proper long hair doesn't do this either.

You're right there, Bruce. My hairbrush is now unemployed and likely
to remain so for some time.

Right again. Something else with short hair - ears. Putting a hat or
helmet on used to be easy, as the hair would encourage the headwear to
slide over the top of the ears, to the extent that I could forget
about having ears altogether. Now, I keep folding my pinnae down, in
half. I have to slide a hand up inside my lid to push them back up
again or they hurt like bloody hell. I can't even get my thinsulate
hat on without having to remember to pull it out over my ears.

However, one thing I don't miss is helmet beard. If it sat wrong, the
beard would curl up and down inside the chinpiece, both at the same
time. This looked most odd for quite some time, as it would take at
least as long as the time spent in confinement to return to "normal".

Seems really well composed, especially as my mate took it just as I'd

I knew something wasn't quite right when I had a St Johns bloke on the
