Farewell to the legendary Bill Frindall..........
1 Attachment(s)
.......... who died today, aged 69.
An encyclopaedic cricket brain, and a strong sense of fair play which he was not averse to expressing publicly. And his eye for statistics was of couse ummatched. He was a long-term sufferer from Legionnaire's Disease. RIP. |

Re: Farewell to the legendary Bill Frindall..........
there are people that you wish that you have met them by just looking at their pictures...
i can say that he is one of them but by the way ... how often are people in UK have a beard like this man? and is it connected to age only .. or what is the idea behind it? dose it add any value or portliness to a person over there? |

In the UK growing a beard is usually a sign of a guy too lazy to shave, nothing more:)

A beard is a sign of great strength and wisdom... I am a beard wearer and patron and enjoy the furriness of my face, as does Mrs SB, more importantly :D Many of my friends in the UK have beards and non are slum dwellers, students or left wing radicals.... Big up to you Beady and your promotion of the Beardism! |

Big up to you Beady and your promotion of the Beardism! that's something i am happy to hear. I agree that the beard is a manish thing that is as you beautifully said a sign of great strength and wisdom :) but is the beard in UK sometimes linked to religion (i am asking about none muslims) |

I wouldn't really say it is linked to religion, there are many reasons why someone would grow a beard...
In the muslim world, what is the importance/significance of growing a beard? many scholars say that it is a must for a muslim to have it. some of them are growing it not based on the order of islam but based on traditions. |
