“I started growing my beard in 2015; I used to keep it very trimmed until 2019 and then in the words of Elsa, I let it go.

“Why? Being bald, I wanted to freshen up my look! I love getting a nod of approval from fellow beard wearers. It does get in the way of my seatbelt, however!

“I'm self-employed so I tend not to take too much time off, but I have travelled well in my time.

“I enjoy watching most sports, and I play pool and darts in a few leagues. I spend too much time on YouTube, and being a Gamer, and I play Football Manager to an excessive amount!!”
