Policemen have been looking younger for quite some time. In fact, it wasn't long ago that I found myself asking a member of the constabulary who was giving me a severe ticking off for parking inappropriately: "Just how old are you?"
He wouldn't give me his age, but I can tell you that he didn't like the question very much, and brought our conversation to an end with a "Well, make sure you don't do it again".
But I was looking out the train window the other day as we pulled into Clapham Junction and saw a child with a beard. No, seriously, a young boy, about 5ft tall maximum, with a proper black beard.
So are beards – like policemen – getting younger? One thing's for sure... I'm definitely getting old.
