Subject: RE: 'Longest Beard' competition final. From: Vic Smith Date: 04 Jul 10 - 12:56 PM No, they are not local Americans. Ken lives in Silver City, New Mexico and Larry lives (I believe) in New York State. No, they just came to Lewes for the finals of the competition. |

It was for specialist traditional music beards. Did Ken do his "Waltzing with Bears" beard performance? Again, yes indeed, and it won him a supplementary award - Most Inventive Use Of A Traditional Music Beard. |

From: Richard Hardaker Date: 05 Jul 10 - 03:50 PM Whilst I was at Newcastleton this weekend, it occured to me that managers of department stores wanting to recruit Father Christmases to occupy seasonal grottos should set up a pitch at folk festivals. So many of those extravagent folkie beards first cultivated in the sixties and seventies are now snowy white! |

Subject: RE: 'Longest Beard' competition final. From: Vic Smith Date: 05 Jul 10 - 06:50 PM Neil Woodward should certainly have entered. He could have asked the judges to consider his hair as supplementary evidence of an overall total immersion hirsute approach to life. |
