He used to play a lot of games then, so he was tan from spending so much time in the open air, and of course he was muscular, muscular and broad-shouldered. He had a mass of curly hair and like most red-haired people, a pleasant, freckled face, with a funny little snub nose, and full lips, as if he wanted to kiss you. I'm afraid you wouldn't recognize him now! He's only middle-aged but he looks about 60! Of course when men lose their hair and go bald, it always adds years to their real age, but his face is lined and wrinkled now, and since he gave up sport, he has put on a lot of weight, so he's rather fat.
