November equals Movember, and all around the country and world great moustaches are being grown and admired.
The Gurgler’s editor in Chief – Shannon Meyer – is also joining the cause and has a beautiful 10 day Handlebar going, hoping to be one of the great moustaches.
It’s not just an excuse to grow a great moustache and look excellent, it is also for charity. And a good one at that.
The Gurgler website is behind our Editor and have set up a Movember page for you to donate your hard earned coin – which you can visit by clicking here. It might be a safer investment option than the markets after the US Presidential Election.
Or wait until the end for our great picture with the same link. Your choice, but if you leave now you’ll miss the gold that follows….
But how does our moustache rate against the all time great moustaches? Pretty pissweak really. But still 21 days to go.
Good enough excuse to talk more great moustaches while we’re here.
We have selected for you amusement and ours, the finest 10 great moustaches of the modern era.
ERROL FLYNN
Great moustaches don’t always need to be full and bushy, there’s plenty of room for style as well. The famous Australian actor was a hit with the ladies back in the day, and who wouldn’t be with his classic pencil thin fuzz.
ROBERT DIPIERDOMENICO
Great moustaches don’t always need to be full and bushy, but it is great when they are. Dipper’s is a real 80’s beaut, and gets into our Top Ten for the dedication in keeping it in a world which frowns upon a moustache for the other 11 months of the year.
DAVID BOON
Part of an era of Australian Cricket that won, and drank loads of beer, and welcomed the moustache. All under the stewardship of Allan Border, captain and former moustache enthusiast. Very few mo’s are more famous than the 5 ft 2 Tasmanian with the flared pants’ effort.
MERV HUGHES
Ditto to above, except his mo is even more beautiful. Ask his fans in Bay 13.
RICH UNCLE PENNYBAGS
Aka Mr Monopoly. Sure he is a cartoon character, but it still is a tremendous mo. He was also disgusted by the lame effort of the Brisbane Monopoly game, and told The Gurgler exclusively that he much preferred our Real Brisbane Monopoly game.
BASIL FAWLTY
A fine British moustache attached to the angriest man on earth.
BLAKEY FROM ON THE BUSES
Whilst not the best mo ever, and possibly a little controversial, kudos must be paid for keeping a style of facial hair associated with one of the World’s most evil humans. True dedication to the moustache.
MAGNUM PI / TOM SELLECK
Is there a better moustache out there. Combined with the ever present Hawaiian shirt it was a look of pure manliness. Tom Selleck earns high praise for continuing to keep the mo.
IAN TURPIE
A great showman of Australian entertainment scene, with a moustache to earn as much respect as his many talents. Showcased best on Swift and Shift Couriers and Press Your Luck.
HIGHTOWER FROM POLICE ACADEMY
A moustache of authority, and a fine one to round out our top 10 favourites.
