Default Movember

G'Day all,
Just wondering if anyone else out there is doing Movember this year?

There is about 12 of us guys from work doing it for the first time this year. I have just started grooming my facial hair in to something that resembles a mo. How's everyone else going with it so far?



http://www.movember.com.au

Mine so far...

A friend of mine is doing it Merv Hughes style. He's the manager of a shopping centre though so it does get some interesting looks!

I suggested my Ex Girlfriend take part.






Needless to say it didn't go down to well.

Funny looking Mo you have there Panda. :P

For me, the nick name "Chopper", or "Uncle Chop Chop" seems to have stuck. :ymca:

Oh, and the wife hates it!

i started with a couple of mates at uni. but i was told to shave it off- for work.

i work at McDonalds, so facial hair is out of the question. which sucks.

but i cant grow a beard to save my life. i can grow an awesome porntasche though.

I'm doing it, yes. Getting rather itchy on the 13 th day, I have to say. No pics at the moment, but I have gone for the Chopper-style mo', as have amny others. It's marginally less stupid-looking than having only a furry top lip. Thus far, I am amassing more facial hair than two of my work colleagues put together!

And yes, my wife hates it too..!

I have found that with my new facial hair, I'm turning into Chopper... a bit. I'm swearing more, and I even told someone to "harden the **** up" the other day.

Haha! Good work Nick! I am doing it chopper style too- I haven't got it a thick as some but its there nonetheless.

I only registered the site today and so far have got $110.....plenty more work to do!

I think that`we should have a few more pics on here...I'll post one of myself in a couple of days.

This November is probably one of the only times in the last 4 years that I HAVEN'T had dodgy facial hair...

But I can report that Neeek's is going well - He's a spitting image of old Chop-Chop, and if you tell him otherwise, he'll effing nut you.
