Richard's famous beard!

Last year, one of the local newspapers had a "Kingston's Best Beard" competition. I, of course, entered Richard in this - which meant that we had a photographer come round to take a photo of his beard, and a reporter on the phone interviewing us about it. For some reason, I never got round to scanning the newspaper article and uploading it to the internet.

Well now, I have. ( Image, 171 kB. Actual size, so it's kinda big. )

The person who actually won was Michael Hargrave, who'd grown his beard after retiring as a surgeon - it transformed him from a rather scary individual into a fluffy wuzzie, so he deserved to win - but it's still amusing to see Richard in the paper :)
