It's Movember, or moustache month, and I am cultivating a hairy upper lip to raise awareness of prostrate cancer. This might be inappropriate -- given this weekend's events - but I am hoping for that Pakistani general look. That's probably unrealistic in a little over 4 weeks. But I fear I am more likely to achieve a gay, fascist traffic cop look. So any tips are welcome. I am hereby laying down the gauntlet.

You wait until next weekend when the generally-materialistic Asian communities around here start to display their wealth to the neighbours by using exhibition fireworks in their postage-stamp gardens. We'll be scraping spent gunpowder off our windscreens the next morning. :-( Last night was damp squib here in North Weezy (that’s NW London for those not “with it”: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G1ZgCkUt7wM).
