The word of the day today is BURNSIDES. No, that isn’t a typo, it’s an actual word, albeit a strange one. Definition: A moustache (or mustache in America) in combination with whiskers on the cheeks but no beard on the chin. (Lexicon)
Please feel free to use the word in a story, poem, or other writing exercises of your own choosing.

I think you’re right Kristian! I remember those, but most particularly on Mungo Jerry…(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wvUQcnfwUUM)

Loved Mungo Jerry. You don’t hear this song much any more because it contains the line “Have a Drink, have a drive, go out and see what you can find” which isn’t great advice 🙂 But it’s still a great song.
