BRILLIANT! What, the tash? No! The fact that we only have to put up with it for one more week, yippee yay yay. Thurdays are the new Fridays you know.

No Carling today - it's only morning! Dammit I'll be happy when this thing is done, although I'm used to it now, the girlfriend is getting increasingly annoyed which ends up with trouble for me. How do women with blokes who have tashes normally cope? No wait, I think I just answered my own question.

Face is actually more comfortable now. Wife apathy increases, I had an internal job interview all beardy.

Just an update. Not long now, getting very annoyed with it now.

Day, erm I don't know how long we've been doing this I'm back from the antarctic ( it is the antarctic that has penguins ?). Wife annoyance is turning into apathy, apathy accompanied by little physical contact. Face is annoying the crap out of me, even had to purchase a beard trimmer. Why some parts of your face grow ten times quicker than others defeats me. Just thought I wonder if this had a little more planning we could of cashed in from Carling ?

Darren was far too busy filming a new film noir classic about getting to the weekend and drinking a LOT of carling. Classic I tell you. Où est la Carling? Je ne sais pas. Vous ne connaissez pas? Est-ce là tout ce que vous pouvez dire? Indeed.

Hunting for Darren in the antarctic though I suspect he may of left since, last Friday.  Surprising amount of carling in antarctic.

Intrepid Darren tries out his adventurous new goaty look in the Antarctic, where the penguins live. We should have made this a goaty-off, much easier.

Proof a moustache makes you look classy and sophisticated. FYI drinking half a pint of white wine from a stella glass makes it no less sophisticated, Fact!

My face feel very annoying! arghh!. Also finding my self permanently surprised!

Dammit, everyone else is cheating and I'm getting a lot flack from work colleagues - bring on the goatee rule-bender!

Heres me doing the mid week goaty chin hold!

Here's mine... not strictly as tash yet, but due to illness was not able to warn people at work that I would be looking silly after xmas... So as I started on New Years Eve evening, I had a) some catcing up to do and b) needed some help in the form of a goatee. Will be shaved this weekend!

Classic wife is only slightly annoyed currently, this will probably change so will monitor.

Even a catalog pose doesn't improve things.

Thought I'd match Darren, and do a picture of where im starting from. BTW Marcus is excersing secret rule 1 (that I just made up) Secret (and made up) rule no.1 : Dont bitch about the rule of the tache off, doing so will get you disqualified.

Happy new year! Ok this is me for now, first in - Will turn this effort into a moustache at some point probably next weekend. Pete's already confirmed he's wimping out of the challenge. Ok fellas, lets see it...
