    Don't much like rules, mind.

    Pics plz
    The guilt is getting to me, so this is about to come off. Seems such a terrible waste :(

    I'm having another crack at this look from last winter. Not abiding by the Movember rules, though, as I currently have a two-week growth and I'm not starting from scratch!

    very dapper...

    my beards currently somewhere in between mad man of the moors and scruffy. I attacked it with some scissors for some minor bonsai beard trimmage but i need to stop being lazy and get the clippers out.

    I "cut in" my 'tache this morning, and it's bloody ridiculous. Which is exactly the point from what I can tell. There's a few people in the office, but they are mostly cheating as they weren't clean shaven on Monday. Boo!

    I've been tempted to ask a couple of the ladies here if they are doing it, but fear a slap and HR getting involved.

    Yeah, that's not valid under Movember rules anyway, since it meets the sideburns, and is thus classed as a beard. Shame, 'cause I wanted to try a Lemmy too.

    I started shaping my attempt this morning (I did shave my chin, although it doesn't look like it). I think the Chinese genes in my DNA conspire against any decent facial hair growth though, so I'm not expecting big things.

    Tom Selleck can turn an ordinary house phone to a fully functioning mobile simply by removing the wire such is the power of his moustache.

    I may give it a go - as I remember the West of Scotland was awash in ghastly ginger efforts last year & I secretly wanted to join in, (safety in numbers and all that) plus if it's for charity the other half can't complain about the awful patchy beige/ginger/white fluff on my face.

    Huzzah!

    Just done the first round of fund raising here, almost got £200 already. The company match that with gift aid on top so that's over £500 raised already.

    How are the rest of you getting on with the fund raising? Or is it all to show the mo'

    Rubbish. And it's not through lack of asking. Ho hum, it's still a laugh, innit?

  • The Mo is getting into its stride. I think it may be creating some drag. Felt like a bit of a headwind tonight... :roll:
