Movember
 
Just out of curiosity, how many of you are actually serious about this? Are you planning to grow a mo this November??

Do people here in Australia take it seriously or am I the only bloke? :blink:

Bump!

I'm doing it again this year. If anyone fancies sponsoring me, here's a link to my Mo page. I raised $770 last year and would like to beat it this year.

Grow a mo', raise some dough....for charidee mate :thumbup:

If you kept it for a whole month, I'd definitely sponsor that.

I plan to draw a new and different one on my upper lip every day to compensate for my inability to grow facial hair.

My wife's been celebrating Movember for the last 9 years I've known her. You don't see her hitting people up for money!

Aha. Didn't recall seeing a thread this year and wondered if I was the only one suffering. The Geek has so far raised just over $800 - not as good as last year's $1900 but his team has raised over $6k so can't complain.

I'm sitting here laughing at the absurdity that is my life as I've just bleached up his 'tache ready for a last minute push - tomorrow morning it's going blue :D

Well done to those of you that joined the Mo-bros this year, and thank you from the daughter of a prostate cancer patient. :wub:
