A man calling himself Captain Beany from Port Talbot, Wales, will be celebrating Christmas with his favourite ever dish: baked beans.

Formerly known as Barry Kirk, Captain Beany is absolutely obsessed with Heinz baked beans – he created a Guinness World Record in 1986 by spending 100 hours in a bath filled with beans.

Captain Beany, 67, even changed his name by deed poll in 1991 to be seen as a ‘local superhero’.

His Christmas will be filled with baked beans, even decorating his Christmas tree with homemade Heinz baked beans baubles and cans.

Is 67 old enough to be an old fart? I would guess Capt. Beany would be a champ in that bracket.

I remember that from some trivial corner of my mind. Ya probably had to be a Beatle to get warm beans to sit in.

I like beans. I’ve even baked with beans as a substitute.

But that is ‘out there’.

The weather is pretty crummy there. Not much to do in the winter.
