"She told me that her husband and my brother-in-law told her she should tell me to ditch the beard and grow up"

It's horrible to have to hear comments like that. You know more than anyone how important it is to be your own man so now it's time to listen to your own words of wisdom.

You know what we all think of you on here, you're one of the wisest people I've ever "met" - (I've put met in inverted commas until I meet you in person, and when that day comes I will probably be completely awestruck and unable to even speak!), the only opinions that really matter are yours, Mrs Tom's and your daughter's - and of course they all love the beard, like we all do! You're a role model to so many on this board - me included.
