    No.

    If I wanted a 'tache, I would grow one. I don't so I won't.
    None of the above should be taken seriously, and certainly not personally.

    does growing a goatee count? as it also qualifies as "really annoys my other half", although on the downside it probably means becoming a monk for a month, with likely comments being, "your not coming near me with that thing" etc.

    I probably would if I could, but I can't.
    I can grow a full beard, but my upper lip doesn't chip in with the required amount of hair and any 'tache I grow if of the teenage bum fluff variety.
    Enough to have to shave, but not enough to call a proper moustache.

    I grew a beard and tache last year after I lost my job, not especially for November and haven't shaved it off since...

    It involves more shaving than normal but I'll join in to see how ridiculous I can get it this time.
    What do you mean you think 64cm is a big frame?

    Did it last year with my team at work. Was good fun - even those worried about bum fluff had a decent covering at the end of the week. Client's liked it (or seemed to) and a couple got involved too.

    Goatees are illegal - the idea is it is just a mo.

    Daviesee - noted, but part of the "fun" is doing it as a group, checking out the competition and on 1 December, we all checked into a barbers, had a proper cut throat shave and then went for some beers afterwards (including having comedy guinness moustaches).

    I can go with the charity donations, I can especially go with the beers, but the 'tache - meh. Some say I look silly enough already. :wink:

    Since my dad's just been diagnosed (he should die with rather than of), I probably should grow one though it's an unpleasant thought

    First week is fine - its growing and a novelty. Second week is a pain as it looks stupid. Third week, you start thinking about buying moustache wax and a comb. Last week, you just want rid....

    Obv - depends on hirsuiteness...

    I've done it for the last two years and will be doing it again this year

    Here's my effort from last year taken from an on-board cam
