He's an actor called Alexander Ludwig, and he plays the legendary Viking king Bjorn Ironside in the TV series Vikings. His dad is this guy: please log in to view this image
I was browsing around IKEA this morning, which is a much more successful and long lasting Viking raid on our shores than ya horny beardys eva was and I noticed that they had a range of office tables named Galant. Fingers in many pies Carmine? I'd wondered were you'd been.
One more, Carmine. This is Rollo, the founder of Normandy and ancestor to William the Conqueror: please log in to view this image
My ancestry comes from Normandy, he's probably my great, great grandad. Could do with a haircut mind.
The problem you've got here is that nowadays beards are the domain of hipsters. The only thing I've seen marauding groups of hipsters pilage is a branch of T K Maxx.
Good grief they look horrendous. They clearly didn't look in a mirror before leaving the house. Mine will be a little more ahem less like I have my wares on display.
Aye, you're not wrong mate. Party has a full set and a sleeve tattoo and he's Hulls biggest hipster. I wonder if the plain old bangers and mash will ever make a comeback? I hope so, I really do.
Party can often be seen in theiving harrys downing double espressos. Tells me they have the best barista in town. I've grown my bangers for movember and I like what I see in the mirror. Our lass isn't so keen though.
I won't lie to you pal, I don't get this barista carry on. Surely it's a trendy name given to someone who can make a brew? What sort of bangers you gone for ?
Said the same thing to party but he got all offended. I started by going for a full handlebar but it wasn't really me. So I just went for a nice, neat Tom Selleck. You can't go wrong with it. Obviously when I shave it off I try out the hitler tache.
Any chance you might venture out of your HU 1 penthouse with the Fuhrer tache? Maybe a quick jaunt to buy a skinny choco latte from Costa?
I could do that. It was too soon for the fella from sparks to try bringing it back. But enough time has passed now.
I doubt anyone will even give you a sideways glance. Such an appealing and manly look shouldn't be resigned to history just because one of its most famous advocates turned out to be a right bell end. I recall a whimsical tale of my son going to a school dramatical performance dressed as Chaplin only to be called Hitler by his mates , he came home in tears. Oh how the wife and I laughed.
I do rate a good barista. I value it. Look, some of us want to taste the whole bean. Ok? A barista who takes pride in their work gives you that. They're artists, really. I put their art in my mouth. Their bean. It's nice. Maybe we should all loosen up a bit. Drink a coffee, skip a shave, bare some ink. Let it hang out. Hey, this is the city of culture. Feel the culture.
Moments like that that make a man of the boy. All that female attention I'll get with the Hitler might make our lass a bit jealous though. Not sure if I can be doing with that. Maybe I'll give brady this one. He really needs that kind of attention.
I used to like coffee when you could buy Mellow Birds but not now. This modern stuff is nowhere near as good. I had an iced frappachino once and it made my head hurt. I don't know if that's the right spelling either. I just stick to booze these days and I shave as little as possible, a bit like Lee Langman. Quite fancy getting a tattoo though. On my face.
