My name is Mike, and i'm a man.

Movember is all about raising awareness of male illness, with a key focus being on prostate and testicular cancer. 1 in 9 men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer in their lifetime, it kills one man every hour. Testicular cancer is the most common cancer in men aged between 15-44.

This year I am part of 'The Minstaches', a team that so far consists of 14 people from work (bizarrely including one woman!) who are trying to raise awareness of 'Movember' through spreading the message and growing a moustache Over the next month I will no doubt be growing a ginger one

Being a car forum predominantly used by males, I thought it would be nice if you could put one less litre of fuel in your car at some point this month and sponsor me that amount instead. It would make very little difference to you but would help others who need it. If you don't wish to sponsor me then that's fine too, thanks for reading at least now you know a little more about what's going on.

My link and how to sign up if you fancy giving it a go can be found here

Thanks my 'Mo Bros' and 'Mo Sisters'

I've got my office to do it too!

Unfortunately I've got 2 gigs to go to during it and I will most certainly look awful....

 

I've got a Year 11 Parents' Evening to do mid-way through it mate!

You'll have to post a picture up at the end

 

Having been through a recent scan and diagnosis, I can only say how important this is !

dunx

P.S. I'm lucky, 'twas just a lowly spermatocele...

 

Well, your Sister can have a feel of my ***** any time she likes.

 

And give you a prostate massage

Good on the OP for supporting a worthy and important cause

 

If you make a donation then i'll ask her

 

Doing it as a company too. should be a huge laugh, first time I won't have had a decent shave for more than a week since leaving Uni.

Don't know what 'tash to go for, thinking a Poirot sytlee.

Dreading the multi coloured 'tash though.

 

Sported a lovely gingerish Magnum stylee last year...not sure what I'll be rocking this time around

Good luck with the fund raising all

 

I've just finished fisting I mean checking my prostate for any unusualness.. all seems ok but it is an area men don't like to discuss..

 

It should be hilarious. One of the guys in the office looks like this;



I just hope I don't look this bad....

 

We are doing it at work too, should be quite funny.

 

Hey up Mike, who is the woman? I could think of a few who would qualify!!!
I will not be taking part cos I is ugly enough already but will gladly add to your coffers matey

 

Miss Jarratt mate!
Get one grown!

 

I'm up for a November Tache., I'm fancying a SAS stylee Mexican bandito tache

 

Can't let Jarratt beat me me matey, start from now!!! Tashy life here we come

 

donated

(hope it's not too ginger.................!)

 

I am in charge for Movember this year at my office and trying to involve as many others as possible!



In addition to raising money for an extremely worthwhile cause, it really annoys the Mrs in that we have a couple of important social occassions in November and she is a true hater of the 'mo'

 

Ive signed up for this aswell, got a team going called Choppers r us..... good luck and happy fund raising.

 

Thanks mate, very generous!

I'll post a pic at the end of the month

 

Did this last year, will probably do it again this year.

Good idea to post up here, wish I'd thought of that.

Good luck!

My mate is growing a mexican style moustache. It's horrendous, yet hilarious.

 

Not supposed to start til the first.

I'm going one better than my red handlebar mo of last year. Man i looked a tool

 

Good to see so many people giving this a go

I would have hoped that my 'donate a litre' idea would have been more successful though, only one donation from 250+ views! Come on guys, it's for a good cause, i'm only asking for £1.40 lol!

 

Stupidly I have agreed to this too, Although I need to go to a Smashing Pumpkins gig at the end of November, Im going to look so cool amongst the rockers there lol

 

Same here! Although I'm going to the Alter Bridge gig at the end of November.

 

yeah gets done at my work also

its a good laugh. and worthy cause

ive had mine checked a few times - not fun but just gotta do it if concerned

and one of my best mates had a tumour of sorts, turned out to be harmless, but still worrying times.

 

Well it's 'Mo Day' good luck to all involved with the fund raising and 'tache growing

If everyone doing it adds a link to their 'Mo Space' then we can all keep up to date with each other's progress

To anyone reading this and not taking part, please remember that it's for a great cause and that donations can be given during the whole month of Movember. Sponsor someone, even a quid will help make a difference!
