Title: Movember
Post by: bucketshred on October 25, 2012, 11:47:26 AM: A friend of mine are doing Movember this year. Anyone else doing it? It's a great charity which highlights men's cancer issues.

Anyone got any moustache growing/grooming tips?

I look like this:

So no Movember for me, but I'm there in spirit.

Post by: MrBump on October 26, 2012, 06:37:49 AM: I did it last year. Managed to raise a few hundred quid, actually, which I was very happy with.

Less happy with the Mo though - ginger, grey and patchy.

Do you need to go from clean shaven?

Is it only for November?

Only if you like shaving so much you're determined to squeeze in one more before the start of November.
