Story


Hair Raising.

You see, ever since 5th year I've had a pony tail of some description. It has been my monicker and calling card for many a year, worked into recognisable cartoons, visages, murals, stained-glass windows etc. and since I decided that to lose the beard, people have resorted to recognising me by the hair (and the er, height, presumably.) Well, I hope they have, anyway...

Twice in my life my hair has been down to my waist and frankly, it's time to just see what it would be like to have it short for a massive change!

I'm going to try and raise as much as I can in lieu of this historically significant moment, for Amnesty - a hard-working bunch of good people in a really messed up world.

The Big Haircut is happening on Saturday - I'm really sorry if you don't recognise me afterwards :)


Update:

The great day arrived! And yes... there are pictures:

Thanks so much to everyone that donated!

(If you wanted to and haven't gotten around to it then this page will be open for another 3 weeks)


Cheers,

~Adz :)
