19th - Swarthy...

Cheltenham, Glos.

...and maybe a bit ticklish too, who knows?

So I've been persuaded (well, I was given no option really) to grow a tash for Movember and get some well-needed donations for men's health. Which is fine, but I blinkin' hate the thing for oh so many reasons - my children won't speak to me, people point and stare in the street, and my work colleagues...well, they just laugh ceaselessy...

Can't wait til 00:00:01 on December 1st coz this bad boy will be well and truly shaved into oblivion then!!

Put a beard on too! Then you'll be stylin' like me! ;-)

Snap - I am doing the same and getting the same abuse - double takes. My wife says I look like a used car salesman, I can't say what my daughter reckons and as for my work colleagues.........!!!! I might post a picture :-)

Good on you. Doing a story this week on a guy who is shaving his after 40 years in aid of Movember too.

A terrific point of view. Right down to the pores. V

Its a poor effort, but a good one all the same :)

Ha Ha hahahahaha. Worth every penny.

Good for you Doug for doing something you hate in the name of a very important cause!

I remember when they were all the rage

Great Flavour preserver

Has the start of a good 70's porn 'stache ;-)

Well done for taking part. I was not brave enough.
Walter Otto Koenig19-Nov-2011 16:34
All the itchiness is worth it for a good cause. I do hope you show us another photo when it is in "full bloom".

does it still tickle?...your tash bristles with a macho air...fair play to you Doug for joining the worthwhile effort...V

Ah, so you're cultivating a Mo! Pulled any out with your fingernails yet? :o)

Looking good, not as YMCA as mine, I'll have to post a shot

Wot's that I see???? A few gray hairs amongst the fuzzy 'stash? ;)

I guess you won't be keen on any pbase meet ups during November! Good luck!

I must admit to liking moustaches, they can add a dashing air.
It's a good thing you are doing, feel virtuous :-)
