A very small minority of you will know by now of my crazy plan... I going to grow a moustache!
But this isn't some whim, as I have had them many times before with various goatee beards and long ginger manes! I am taking part in Movember, the world's biggest moustache growing, money raising campaign. In it's third year in the UK, it was brought to my knowledge by Gofer last year. He grew one and coloured it in with mascara at the end of the month so people could see it (picture to follow!)... but he did it for fun!
Now while it is all a bit of fun, I thought I'd try raising a little money too, even if only spare change! I have set up a team with the official website partner called the Surrey and Devon Movember Collective!
Prostate cancer is the most common form of cancer in blokes, a fact that scares me a great deal. 35,000 men get it each year, and plenty of them die from it. Even Andrew Lloyd Webber has it, so the rich and famous are just as likely to get it! The charity involved is The Prostate Cancer Charity, and info on the event is on the website.
To join my collective of Mo Bros and Mo Sistas (who can just support the Mo Bros, not necessarily grow one themselves!) click on this link to the Surrey and Devon Movember Collective - even if you're not actually in Surrey or Devon! I was under pressure to come up with a name...!
The style of moustache, I have not decided. Possibly a big handlebar type, which will see me banned from all intimate relations from Phee for the entire month? Probably a good start, but when the dry spell gets too long I may make it a bit less ridiculous and tidy it up nicely! I've never gone that long without shaving it off, so we'll see... the world is my moustache shaping oyster!
If you're feeling generous, donating is easy... just follow the links on my page and donate using your debit/credit card or PayPal. Or you can pay by cheque, made payable to "The Prostate Cancer Charity - Movember", and I shall forward it to the right place (with my Movember number, 54513, on the back). PLEASE GIVE GENEROUSLY!
With your help, I might be able to help "change the face of men's health"... whilst looking exceptionally cool! Or stupid.
