Its one thing to post donation links, but you gotta post the starting shot and then regular updates (every couple of days) through the month as well

I would do it, however there's no way I'm shaving off what I've already got to start again!!!

All in the name of charity right?

Also you get free Grilll'd!

I wear thin side burns that connect with my goatee and full mustasch everyday. I've had it for about 3 years now. If I go for Movember, should I shave and start over, or should I just let it grow out really big?

the idea (and rules state) is that you shave on the 1st november and grow a mo thru the month so... think your a bit ahead of the gun with that weapon your describing.

I had a chin goat whilst i was overseas but shaved it off a couple of days before comming home

paddyboy... whats this grill'd i keep hearing about?? LOl at dirty sanchez lol

If you do Movember you get free grill'd burgers, im not sure exactly how it works, i think you may have to have your movember applicant details to show grilld and they can give you a free feed, not sure if its everyday of movember or just once that month, ill have to check it out.

I'm doing it for the 1st time this year too. Flying solo though, as there are only 2 guys in my office, and the other bloke already has one (mind you, so do some of the females).

To sponsor my Mo, you can either:

• Click this link http://au.movember.com/mospace/254406/ and donate online using your credit card or PayPal account
• Write a cheque payable to ‘Movember Foundation’, referencing my Registration Number 254406 and mailing it to: Movember Foundation, PO Box 292, Prahran, VIC, 3181

If you are interested in following the progress of my Mo, click here http://au.movember.com/mospace/254406/. Also, http://au.movember.com has heaps of useful information.

Thank you
Paul.

Just throwing it out there, but could we do an "AFF Movember" team? It might be good to form one, just for support and stuff. Flying solo is cool, but group mentality is better. :

Hi guys,

I have just created a group with Movember called "GTH-MO's".
If you want, come and join, and see how much we can raise together.
I have posted the only pic I have of me without a beard or 5 day growth, but I will update once a week tiil the end of Movember.
Lets see how we go......
