OK, I can't resist tossing my contribution into the 
ring:http://zone-10.com/tope2/main.php?g2_itemId=19948

Our village has a biennial Victorian Street Fayre for charity (it's on thelast 
Sunday in June) and in 2014 I was inspired by an old photo IMG_0354 togrow my 
beard and have it shaped into 'mutton chops' for the Fayre. After3 months it 
looked like Fayre-017 and after shaping and putting myselfthrough my own 
photo-booth the resulting picture is DSC_3854.

Our photobooth made over &pound;320 during the afternoon (at &pound;5 per 
picture),contributing towards an amazing total for charity(ies) of over 
&pound;23k. (pretty good for a village of only 229 houses)

I'm currently one month into the growing season and it's coming alongnicely. 
I've encouraged some other villagers to join in, ready for ashave-in and a bit 
of publicity in the local media, but it's hard to getthe approval of their 
SWMBOs...
