And they all look rather cool with the moustaches… or maybe the silly costumes are just distracting… During November I’m growing a ‘tache to raise money for prostate cancer – come sponsor me over here.
Idle nonsense
Really – that’s not a moustache… that’s been raised from an egg and trained to sit on his top lip. Shocked to discover from a Google image search that Mr Oates appears to have got rid of his ‘tache… that strikes me as being as silly as Lemmy shaving his off in the 90s! No [...]

During November I’m growing a ‘tache to raise money for prostate cancer – come sponsor me over here. Never, ever get tired of watching Cab do Minnie the Moocher – he was great doing it in the 30s and still great doing it in the 80s… he was great as a man and great as [...]
