MoVember... Show us your progress!

Hey guys/gals...

So who is participating in MoVember?
Its a fantastic fundraiser for two of the main health issues affecting us Australian men. Cancer and Depression.
Both of which im sure 99% of all you people have been affected by in some way thru family, workmates, or even yourselves.

At work we form a small team each year to raise a bit of cash, its not much but it all helps. And we get to have a major laugh along the way. Perhaps next year (or someone wants to start up a boosted team now) we can participate as a club.
I will be O/S on the 1st November but i will post a pic of my progress when i get back.

Others, feel free to post before/during shots of your Mo'

I'm thinking about giving it a go, I remember last year I grew all of my facial hair for a while and cut just my beard off when movember started, then I looked at my self in the mirror and though.....bugger this and cut it off about 3 minutes later lol. Hopefully i'll do it this time.

I'm now part of an unofficial team at work, the team leader wants to donate to a local charity or something so we're not going to be on the official list.

I'll have to start wearing that black vinyl Confederate cap I had at Glenmaggie 8-)

I'm envisioning Obama's bodyguards pre-emptively crash-tackling me as soon as I put that cap on, mistakening me for a white supremacist planning a mass murder :?

"What? You mean you're NOT one?" I hear Rob say :P

BRB, getting a Southern Cross tattoo on my shoulder

Nearly shave down time..... Im trying to find a barber here in Phuket to give me a proper shave. Im not 100% on it tho, bit nervous about a cut-throat shave in a foreign country. Maybe one of the 'ladies' from the ping-pong show last night might be able to do that razor blade trick on my face? Ewww....

LOL at your shirt dave - i think i might jump on this - are we allowed to shave the cheekbone region? i only keep a goatee - hair doesn't grow on every bit of my face - if i don't shave my cheeks it looks fucked

Biplanet spotted the shirt too, I'm impressed by the observational abilities of you QLDers :P

Umm, I guess you can shave the cheekbone region? As long as there's some form of moustache I don't think it matters where else you shave? (huhuhuhuhuhu)

Liar!! I shaved at midnight and haven't got enough on my face to even credit a shave attempt yet!! Give it a couple more days and I will start shaping the best creation to ever feature on my face!!

I'd rather a 20/F featuring on my face over facial hair, but each to their own.

You'd better post a pic up when it resembles a moustache!

I'm just doing the full goatee at the moment, but nobody needs to see that. It's rarer to see me without facial hair than with it!
