This is from The Handlebar Club news section:

Johnny's owner Nerys said, "Here is a picture of my elderly gentleman, Johnny, who is the proud wearer of a rather magnificent ‘handlebar’ I think! He is now 13 years old, very distinguished and rather wise. A few months ago, my partner and I went to the Windsor Castle pub for a meal and spoke to the landlord telling him about Johnny and his handlebar. He told us to send a photo in so I’m finally getting ‘round to it.
"Johnny would very much like to become a member of your prestigious club, and wondered if you would please consider him? He apologises for the presence of a very small beard but it cannot be helped... it runs all the way to the tip of his tail and shaving it off might leave him a little chilly!"
