So where's the Gordon slash?

Judging by appearances is such a non-Presbyterian -- and therefore non-Gordon Brown -- thing to do, but let's say it anyway: Britain's new prime minister was a remarkably handsome guy back in the mid-70s.



He was also, as we saw last year, a rather good student rector at Edinburgh University. Click here for the video featuring these images, and to hear an Edinburgh University official, speaking in 1975, saying "Sometimes student rectors seem to think that once they are rector this is equivalent to being prime minister."

Momus, were you hot in your mid-twenties? Please post pics of self in that timeframe, so we can compare and contrast.

Difficult to tell from that image. But I'm assuming that Momus was a bit gawky and bony in his twenties, and that age becomes him.
