NOvember

The last few years has seen a dramatic increase in the number of moustaches grown in the month of November. This phenomenon has become known as 'Movember' and has resulted in the raising of millions of pounds for male cancer charities.

One unexpected side-effect of this phenomemon is that the growing of beards has become side-lined as individuals attempt to grow a passable moustache. Well, I am of a mind to say that enough is enough. To help restore the balance throughout this month I will be growing all of my facial hair EXCEPT my moustache.  I will be calling this event "NOvember" in honour of the month in which it is taking place.

In return for my undoubtedly heroic efforts all I ask is that you consider donating a small sum of money to Maggie's Cancer Caring Centres. They do really outstanding work for people suffering with cancer.
