I imagine, that is the value of experience, one team can't wait to show what it can do, and the other knows the value of patience .

so it goes

In fairness, the Bay this season lost to Southland, Wellington, Waikato & Canterbury, and three of those four finished higher.…

I think the team gets talked up far to much down in the bay – they are often guilty of turning up to games with the match already won in their heads.

Oh well, the…

Like this David? http://www.flickr.com/photos/jedsoane/4013000431/ (it's Tom's top hat btw)

That, sirs, is a fancy hat indeed.

Paul, is my friend that nice Mr. Newland playing tonight?

If the host is unable to get, say, 2,000 spectators, the visiting team wins by default.

the Mighty Bay's defeat of Canterbury this evening.

One thing for sure. The record for the lowest attendance at an NPC semi is going to get smashed into little pieces tonight.

95% of men with moustaches look like Ned Flanders.

I dispute that figure on the grounds that Ned Flanders has a kick-ass moustache(a-rino) and very few guys get to that level

How will you know unless you ask?

I decided , for the purpose of a scientific experiment, to make such an enquiry.

I have been informed:
1) proceeding with such a plan could lead to divorce.
2) Such is my skill, you needn't be too disappointed!

In the past I would have gladly sought such permission, but I think my wife may object now?

How will you know unless you ask?

"Honey, can I grow a moustache so I can perform cunnilingus on some girl who posts on a message board on the internet?"...

As a lady, I am firmly of the opinion that moustaches are only permitable if they exist only to increase the sensation delivered to my lady parts.

Just need to source some top hats...

Mine was made by Hills Hats, purchased from the most unlikely of outlets: Comrades' army surplus store in James Smith market.

At my work we've done movember for the last few years and choptober this year…

I refuse to have my laziness and economic protest at the price of razors be objectified as a sex toy!

It is possible that I'm doing an astroturfing campaign for a razor company in order to sell more blades. Next up: the cool kids shave off one eyebrow. Which one…

A coworker of mine has a long, curled moustache – as in, it goes out sideways from his lips and then curls up and back in, with a diameter of around 1".

That is an actual handlebar moustache.

For Wellingtonians, that barber up Featherston St sells such supplies.

I was…

I've also seen someone get three weeks in and then shave out of depression as we'd only just realised that he was doing movember (blond moustache, slow growth, it was hard to see).

That's all me. It has the great side effect of only having to shave weekly. I can…

I'm not. A lot of women like their men, well, manly and nothing says "man" like facial hair.

Like good facial hair. There are few things as cringe-inducing as the bum-fluff moustache grown at age 18 in an attempt to look more mature.

One of the things I like about…

I have been quite pleasantly surprised.

In addition, while…

As a lady, I am firmly of the opinion that moustaches are only permitable if they exist only to increase the sensation delivered to my lady parts. Aesthetically, they have no place in 2010!

Dangerous ground Joanna! I am not sure that a women is wise to comment on the subject on male facial hair, unless invited to do so...

Ok, then. Can I just say though, that 'moustachioed' is one of the cooler words in the English language.

pass the hair tonic.

does it have bromide in it?

makes me look like the sort of gentleman who has a wardrobe full of Megadeth t-shirts

You say this like it's a bad thing.

Perhaps the one that good old queen vicky refused to believe existed?

I was talking to another Vicky about this option the other night, and she opined that while she gave it a shot just to see, nothing beats us blokes, hairy or otherwise.

So we are reasonably safe to…

what choice would the girlies have but Hobson's one?

Perhaps the one that good old queen vicky refused to believe existed?

Hmmmm.... Actually now I've had my morning triple expresso I am thinking we need to get back to the days when we blokes were…

(if you can stand it, as it were.)

Ah! I knew I had forgotten a link!

While I respect the right of any 80s NZ cricketer to wear one, they are not for…

Beards are easy, I usually have one myself. But moustaches are artistry.

True. One of the reasons I have a beard is that it's one less thing to worry about each morning. There's a passage in Mil Millington's book Things My Girlfriend and I Have Argued About where he comments…

Tch. Grow a beard, part-timers.
