Random - Beard and Pollen

For what it's worth, I haven't shaved in 2 or 3 weeks. It started at the NTL programme when I forgot shaving cream. Then I often don't shave on holiday, so it continued. I suppose I'm using it as something of a reminder about my deep learning at NTL. 

On another random note, there were small white things floating all over Belgium and the Netherlands. I didn't think much of them, but now I see them in the UK a little too. I'm guessing it's some kind of flower or tree pollen. I don't recall seeing such a thing in the states? (I remember invisible pollen that then piled up in a thick yellow on cars)
