Gareth Davies, UK Finance Manager for the British Red Cross, is having his legs waxed for

Red Cross Appeal Week in May 2010.

TODAY IS THE DAY!! (Wednesday 5th May 2010)

Gareth has agreed to allow a member of the team in our office in Quedgeley to wax his legs in aid of the British Red Cross. OWCH!! We will be filming the whole thing and uploading it to YouTube for all to see...

Gareth was not that keen on the suggestion at first, but soon warmed to the idea (with some gentle persuasion) and is now really keen to get smooth and silky in the name of charity.  The time is ticking down to 12.30 when the waxing will begin.

OK, So the picture might be a slight exaggeration of the situation but Gareth is doing an amazing and very selfless thing in letting a load of women ruthlessly wax him!
