Kind of considering getting a semi-permanent base somehwhere else. Mainly cos I fricken hate winter here. It’s too cold to do anything, but not cold enough to snow so you can ski etc.
Probably SE Asia.
Where would you guys settle for in the off season?
You sound settled. I don’t have anything that even counts as barely temporary. It’s all very short term.
Construction sites are full of characters who are hard by nature. Been there and done it lots of times. Had to drag the nasty lengths of 16mm steel across the site, had to spend weeks at a time tying it in freezing conditions and baking heat.
Had to stand up to my knees in concrete during pours at the middle of the night; had to spend three days in the middle of a blizzard during a big pour with people skipping off for two hour’s sleep at a time and an hour for food twice a day, concrete going all the time.
Had to….nevermind.

Never have let mine get fuller than the ‘Grizzled’ and even then starts to look crap as nervous habits and itchiness cause it lose some luster in spots.
Best collection of beard variety I saw was a picture of the Duma in the early 1900s at Lenin’s museum in St Petersburg. So much has been lost to lame Roman military tradition and overpriced razors.
Maybe this next round I’ll go for a Rasputin, evil eye and all:
I call that a ‘Rickshaw.’
