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 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! |
