After reaching 60years I now think I'm looking a bit ragged around the edges so ....
1. Do I buy some man polishing products ?
2. Go for the cave man / hobo look ?
3. Throw all the mirrors in the house away ?
4. Only go out after dark ?
Your advice please :laugh:

Re: Turd Polishing
Embrace it and revel in your raggedness. Or, get rid of the mirrors.
I'm a fat 'barsteward' so I got rid of all full length mirrors ages ago. Nothing like a bit of denial. Mind you, I've frightened myself in a few shop windows since then.

Don't worry too much Mikey! As long as you feel ok, everything else takes second place. I've just heard that a work mate fell off his perch recently, he was only 56 and just keeled over, so just get on with enjoying life.
If you feel you make to make changes then go for it! A polish up may work, give it a go young man. If it makes you feel better, do it! Make a few promises to have some fun on the bike, get trips planned, have something really positive to focus on. Are you sure you haven't got SAD or cabin fever? Personally, I reckon I suffer in the winter and find it's too much time indoors and away from the bike. Now I'm just off to have a look in the mirror........

Have you seen the state Ranulph Fiennes? He's got bits missing and looks like a scarecrow, do you think he gives a sh!t. Its better to be amazing and unpolished than to look polished and be boring. They say its not the years, its the milage. Every laughter line is a sign of laughter, every worry line is a sign of a problem overcome. We should be proud of them.

And now, Harry, let us step out into the night and pursue that flighty temptress, adventure.

Get yourself a cheap Draper polishing kit. A few buffs on the forehead & you can wear & look however you want, in the safe knowledge you've blinded everyone (thumbs)mikeybizzle wrote: 1. Do I buy some man polishing products ?
I've decided to just tell everyone I contracted hypertrichosis & aim for the sympathy vote. I've let my hair grow for winter & cultivated a beard. Daughter laughed when she saw me last week, cheered her up but possibly not the suave sophisticated look I was hoping for :laugh:

Re: Turd Polishing
Get someone to grab hold of the back of your scalp and pull it hard to drag all that loose skin away from you face and once they've got it gathered up fire a few staples through it to hold it in place.
It'll look a bit odd from behind but you'll not be able to see it yourself so it won't matter.

I'm currently going for a look that is a cross between a 70's porn star and serpico.
Not sure it's working as my wife likes my beard.

Just grow old disgracefully, 60 is just another number (I'm 61 at the end of the month )
If you want to polish anything, use the seat of your pants on the seat of your bike.
