MARTIN WOOD from
Shrewsbury, Salop.

“At 21 I bought a Philishave 3-head electric razor, went on holiday and forgot it!!

“Back home my boss said to me, "You can shave that off!" 34 years later I still haven't shaved and the razor has since been used by both my sons...

My wife of 30 years, Sue has never seen me beardless and believes that under it is a little boy still trying to get out!

“I've been a town crier for 26 years; I enjoy woodturning, am a local historian and author of 2 books:
Haunted Shrewsbury and Crime & Punishment in Shrewsbury.

“I have been a body double for the character "Hagrid" for 7 years. I am also 7ft 2ins tall.”
