Story

Stop Press: The Deed Is Done. Click on 'Photos' to see...

I've had this beard for a little over 20 years without a break. My dear, dear daughter Chrissy (11) has been badgering me for some time. 'I want to see what you look like without it, Dad. Why don't you shave it off for a while?'

I don't much want to do this, so - time for a Sponsored Beardless Period. For 2 weeks, starting Saturday July 4th, I'll wield the dreaded instrument. Encourage me by making a small donation to Special Effect's Game For Helen, the Cry Havoc charity for 2009.

So, come on. Dig deep for a good cause. If you don't want to donate via JustGiving, you can donate offline. Mail me at jim@bear-cave.org.uk.

Thanks

Jim

P.S. JustGiving have some standard blurb. Here it is:

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
