Embracing 'Movember'


I've been living in a state of perpetual ignorance these past few weeks (blame the Kraftmatic Adjustable Bed) and have only recently discovered the bizarre follicular phenomenon that is 'Movember'.

One of my good friends has been cultivating his mo' for several weeks and now sports a full-blown handlebar. He's withheld our jocular abuse (and no doubt sexual rejection) remarkably well but until now, I couldn't understand why anyone would want to do this to themselves.

I have been enlightened. This self-mutilation is all for charity. The fight against Prostate Cancer to be more specific. I'm a big fan of prostates and anything south of that region, so in solidarity with the male species, I have not only grown a mo, but a fro, too.

It took me a good few hours to get some serious growth going but not a bad effort, I must say.

Being serious for a moment (a sentence, i promise you,  you will never read in this blog again), give Movember and my friend Mick your support today, and change the face of men's health:
