Hair We Go!

Bend The Light · Oct 22, 2011

Hi All,

I have joined a team at work for Movember. This is a charity fund-raiser where I (and other members of my team at work) have to grow a moustache for November. At great risk to myself (the wife hates moustaches) I have agreed to take part...

Why? Well, it's in support of men's health issues, particularly prostrate and testicular cancer. The aim is to raise money for those causes.

If you would like to know more, check out my MoSpace at Movember United Kingdom - Home where you can donate if you want to (make sure the donation is to my name.

)

I intend to shoot a photo of myself each day in Movember to show the progress of the offending hairy growth!

Thanks guys.

Craig

PS: Look for this picture to know you are in the right space:

Nice! I don't get the "Movember" name, though, Last year's "Novembeard" was sort of obvious, but this year I don't get the name....

Not sure, other than "mo" is possibly a short name for MOustache! But no, it's not so convincing. It does allow us to be a Mo Bro, though!

Cheers

Here we go...Ruby took this and focussed on the one eye and left the other OOF...interesting effect. Then again, it's the moustache that is important!

But, I will put up with the itch and the funny looks to support Movember - raising awareness and funds for Men's Cancer such as Testicular and prostate cancer. Every little helps, so if you want to donate got to Movember United Kingdom - Home and hit the "Donate" button.
Thank you.
