Painting with moustache.
Using black acrylic and a brush, I painted a moustache on myself and went about making prints on to paper.I did this by rubbing my painted lip across the paper - the moustache became a full on beard as this procedure continued.
Some prestigious members of the Handlebar Moustache Club, whom I met, drank with, photographed and left.
Jonathan. 
The Texan.(He had come all the way from Texas just to meet the guys
- like me, this was his first encounter with the gang).
The Walrus goo goo gajoob ga goo goo gajoob.
Andy.
Rod - "Rodders".
Delving deeper in to my mild obsession with moustaches, I discovered London was the birth place of The Handlebar Moustache Club. I contacted Vice President, Rod, and arranged a visit to meet some of the members at their monthly meeting. I realised that men with moustaches do not just talk about moustaches.
Tom Selleck - my favourite moustached man.
My first memories of Tom spawn from the vastly underrated film, 'Three Men & a Baby'. My Mum had taped it off ITV, adverts and all. It quickly became a family favourite - Tom's tash being a lasting memory. I always got excited when I saw a film starring Tom Selleck, knowing that my favourite moustachioed man would be on TV. My later school years were enhanced greatly by Channel 5 repeating the enitire Magnum Pi series, which I would tape on to many a video cassette. (Me and my best mate even ran home at lunch when we were informed the feature length pilot episode was on that very day, so we could record it). Watching Tom in his many roles, it seemed to me that men with tashes get the lasses - have a tash and you can have it all. In practise, having a tash is kind of working for me. So from Peter Mitchell, to Thomas Magnum, to Richard from Friends, to An Innoncent Man, Tom Selleck, I salute you and your tash. God Bless.
