The World Beard and Moustache Championships 2007
Dan Morelle posted a photo:
Well I asked the chap on the right for directions to the train station (which being an out of towner he had no idea). But upon complimenting him on his formidable mustache (as you do) I asked if I could take a photo. He beconned me inside to the lounge of Brighton Hotel to meet some of his hairy friends. I was greeted with: “hey, your naked!” – I don’t wear a beard.
The chap on the left actually has what is known as (i only found this out yesterday) ‘a chin beard’ as the tache is a finger width below his lip. Now why would I want to know this?
This was the pre-meet for the The World Beard and Mustache Championships. I witnessed some inter party talks between the Whisker Club and The Pipe Club of Great Britain – you seriously had to be there.
Perhaps Drew (who is MIA) will like to speak to these guys for his Mustache Registry. These hairy men are organized and meeting people from the world over this Saturday to be judged on who has the finest facial hair.
I won’t be making the 600 mile round trip again for this – i’m off to Grimblethorpe (!!!) for my birthday.
