I'm pretty sure that the entire subsim community will be delighted to know that the beard is coming on famously. U-48 sank in a depth charge action but in honour of the crew I decided to keep it going.
Reviews from family and friends have all been positive. My girlfriend thinks I look like a vagrant and has asked that I get rid of it before the next visit to her family, my youngest son wont hug me goodnight anymore, my boss told me that I 'look like something that has just crept out of a forest' and this morning on the train to work a woman sat next to me and then moved seats (Granted in the last case I was very sleepy and had red eyes and stand up hair so I did look like a deviant)
All in all then a massive success
