Deep December.
It has now been months .. or well weeks since I had a proper shave, and there are still three weeks to go. I have had itching, smarting, chaffing and friction burns from putting on jumpers. And a constant mantra buzzes through my mind most days: 'Why will nobody talk to me now in bars?', 'Why are the looks of people on tubes so cold and distant?' And then I remember - 'its the beard, kid!' - 'that cruel hue of ginger that attacks the vision in the glare of icy mornings' ... 'But this won't be forever' I tell myself, 'Friends will come and donate and take me over that target which I hubristically set for myself all those days ago' ...'Its only a matter of time now ...' 'Just have to keep upbeat and avoid crowded places ...' Oh my God! Mick Hucknell does this by choice every day .. I hope he is ok in his soul!'
