is anyone in ford forum land participating in movember (growing a mo for mens health awareness) during the month of november?
im debating doing it, mainly beacuse my father died last year with prostate cancer and was wondering if anyone else is going to do it.

I'm growing the Mo, but not participating as far as raising money goes. I have done it with a couple of Mates before and we raised ~$1500, however none of us have the time to raise money.
My biggest issue is my blonde hair.

Bugger it, I may as well give a plug for myself!!
There is no doubt whatsoever that I will produce THE lamest mo on AFF but I'm giving it a go. My dad underwent treatment for prostate cancer last year so its quite significant for me. The same amount of men die from prostate cancer each year as women die from breast cancer, but it has nowhere near the same amount of coverage or research funding. Anyhoo, if you want to sponsor me, please go to http://www.movember.com/au/donate, enter my registration number which is 106765 and donate away! Cheers, Richard |

Well ... so far this month I haven't shaved ... so off to a start.
The wife is going to hate it. Last year I did it ... and my Licence was due on the 25th of November ... so my Gold Licence has a photo of me with a full Mo on it ... for the next 5 years. Was perfect timing I reckon.

Hiya all,
During Movember (the same month as my BIRTHDAY) I'll be growin' a Mo. That's right, I'm bringing the Mo back because I'm passionate about looking like a living joke and changing men's health.... and the fight against male depression and prostate cancer...etc etc On a personal note, cancer effects every one of us in some way and if I can help in any way by growing a terrible example of a Mo (or as its Bandana day today and I look like a Rambo Pirate Gangsta), I'll do it. To sponsor my Mo please go to http://www.movember.com/au/donate, enter my registration number which is 114881 and your credit card details. Or you can sponsor me by cheque made payable to the "Movember Foundation" clearly marking the donation as being for my Registration Number: 114881. Please mail cheques to: PO Box 292, Prahran VIC 3181. All donations over $2 are tax deductible.

I might grow it for a few weeks, but my sister gets married on the 24th so it'll have to go before then. I'll just grow it for a bit of fun.

I did it last year, man did i look seedy. It was fun chasing my chick around with a bryan ferry Mo, it looked like my eyebrow had nipped down for a quick drink.....
No chance of getting laid for the month either....

6 of us at work have joined this year and are all doing the Movember, signed up and sponsors on line.
What really concerns me is that I have a wedding to go to on the 17th and I am going to look really dodgy in the photo's. P.s. going for the handlebar Mo
