Someone was asking me the other day where you could get ‘good’ fake moustaches and beards, didn’t have a clue at the time, but now I do! Check out this fake moustache and beard selection, they’re from a Dutch mannequin company whose shop is chock full of other bizarre stuff.

ClubPub
Last night ClubPub was a lot of fun. I was quite proud of my Chainsaw-cock creation above! Below is a selection of photos taken from Marc Davies Flickr set. The electricity showrooms floor was amazing.
The dead will walk the streets of Shoreditch
Today is Boring (video rental shop in Shoreditch) is organising a ‘Zombie Walk’, a flash mob convergence of hundreds of Zombie-dressed participants trudging through the streets of London, ending up in Hoxton square for zombie movie and DJ action. Sounds great, more info on their MySpace page.
I Won a bottle of Hendrick’s!
I’m very pleased to announce that I won this bottle of Hendrick’s gin for coming first place in the circus themed fancy dress competition at the Bethnal Green Working Men’s Club on Friday night. I’m even more pleased that there’s no photo of me in my outfit as it was a rather small leopard skin strongman’s tunic which would only cover one nipple at a time. If the two girls who invited me back to their house at the end of the evening happen to read this blog, I’m sorry I didn’t come, I was very very drunk, and yes I really regret it now…
Protest party update
Well I’ve just about recovered now… The protest party when down a storm in London over the weekend, and we all got back home safe and sound. Well apart from my flatmate Alex who failed to bung the bouncer £20 to get into the warehouse party at the end of the evening and a got punch in the eye! Looking pretty swallon at the moment, it’s going to be a cracking colour in a couple of days time! Serves him right really…
Well anyhow those of your who know me, know that me and my brother have a tradition of keeping a book for each other birthday’s. They go all the way back to our 18th when we started trying to drink our age in one day in between opening and closing times, hence the need for a book to keep count. It’s easier nowadays because pubs are open 11 to 11, but back in the day they still closed in the afternoon, so drinking time was at a premium. This continued to our 21st’s when I over ambitiously set the target of doing 21 pints, 20 marshmellows in the mouth, 19 bags of cheesy quavers, 18 somethings. 17 something else’s.. etc. Least to say after that day it couldn’t be bettered so we gave up on the age thing. But we did continue to drink all day on each others birthdays and record the events in little books. We’ve both got piles of them now and they are very amusing to look back on.
Here are a few highlights from this year’s birthday book:

Favourite comment from the book:
4.55pm We’ve travelled back in time, to save an ancient species from total annihilation. 22 Caipirinhas @ Iguanas. Latin life. Thunder. Clouds. Lovely. It tastes like Ribena. (uncredited)
