Any OGFB members of the male persuasion taking part this year?
If so, let me know and I’ll be happy to contribute to your fundraising efforts.
Photos obligatory!
If you don’t have a charity I’ll donate to the British Heart Foundation.

The rules state that you have to have a clean upper lip to start, so no I didn't. Plenty of tweeps are

Double disqualified here, mine is joined up after a fashion although I wear it short nowadays. Been that way for the last 35 years, various shades but now firmly in the grey /white camp. My lad youngest lad has done it for the last 4 or 5 years but he is giving it a miss this year as he is already partly bearded and sideburned.

What takers do I have to lose my beard and 'tach of the best part of 40 years?
BHF, prostate cancer, or charity of your choice?

There are some things that just ‘are’ ... and have been since the dawn of time.
Like strawberries and cream. Batman and Robin. David Whipp and Beard.
So to go against the grain and do the
opposite of Movember ... well I’d definitely pay to see that!!!
In light of recent circumstances, a sponsored DW shave for the BHF would get my backing, that’s for sure.
I was going to suggest a full body wax but maybe that’s a step too far...

Thanks H!
It's bad enough changing the dressings now that the hairs have grown back.
Don't think my heart would stand a full body wax!
At risk of inflaming blue box block, if I'm going to do this, will want to publicise more widely to maximise charity income...

Go for it!
It’s going to help save lives - if any petty minded politicos want to make an issue of it, on their conscience be it.
I’ll be round with my cut throat razor later.
(OMG that sounds like a murder threat.)

Would be good to see you give all the money to something else.
