In the early seventies when I was just starting school my father used to teach at evening classes and my parents used to have parties for the students. The fashion at that time was for men to wear beards and have long hair, but my father didn't really go for that. So everytime I saw a man with a beard and long hair on the train or bus I would always think to myself 'That's a student'.
