this looks like a casting call for a 70's film, you know the kind with the peculiar music and a bad script, not much of a plot, a bit predictable perhaps...

have sympathy for your women and don't make them stare at those lip caterpillars much longer

You mean like a film this guy was in. This is what Mark would look like after his McDonalds diet.

Mark, you know you did that Che Guevara shot. Before you shave your tash could you see if you could do that Ron Jeremy pose, you can even wear your sub if you like.

That's just wrong... On so many levels!

I've already posted a pic on here of me in my birthday suit and managed not to get banned! I'd better not push it!

Good effort for a noble cause by each of you! This was fun, and my 11 year old daughter is a little envious - she can only wear stick-on mustaches.

If we could have made our selection based on creative license, well, it would have to be Spuds.

I'm not sure if the two are linked...!

It's gone now, anyway. Just as well, if the current poll results are anything to go by! And it all started so promisingly...

'fraid I bottled it... It's FAR too cold!

Been there, done that, didn't even get a t-shirt!

The way the voting's going I might have to borrow Seans "Mess Webley" and "do the honourable thing"!
