Every November, thousands of men across the world sprout moustaches in aid of Movember, the movement which aims to raise funds for and awareness of mens health issues.
Since its humble beginnings in Melbourne, Australia, Movember has grown to become an international event inspiring more than 1.9 million males known as Mo Bros to grow a moustache in aid of charity.
Every year for the 30 days of November, these Mo Bros effectively become walking, talking billboards for the often ignored issue of mens health - specifically prostate and testicular cancer.
How to take part
The rules state each Mo Bro must begin Movember with a clean shaven face on the first of the month.
He must then grow and groom a moustache, while conducting himself like a true gentleman
It then gets quite technical:
There is to be no joining of the mo to the sideburns thats considered a beard ,
Theres to be no joining of the handlebars to the chin, which is considered a goatee.
Thare will be a Minimum fee of £10 to enter but you can also get sponsors to bump the funds up,
The winner will be voted by all participents on 30 Nov with a Cash prize to be decided for the best Tash,
All other funds to be split between the Club and Charity ,
Please let me know if your Top lip is up to the task ?

Thank you Mr Walker for confirming that I will be once again growing my film star Tache (Coloured Films) for the benefit of an excellent cause,Do you think Ray Swailes and Bender will be able to grow a tache long enough to cover their embarressment for going to the alliance league dinner dressed as parafin lamps,Idont thinks so!!!!!. Any how there are still a lot of boys at the club whose name is missing from the list of growers,come on boys show us what you can do.
Walks, your excitement over male grooming and looking closley at all yer lads facial hair, leads me to the conclusion that your gender preference may be heavily leaning towards the masculine side, and your grooming request may have hidden meanings...........
Walks, what seemed like a great idea is now turning into a nightmare, this is totally getting on my nerves. Not even those donuts in the jungle would come near my tash, that would be a bushtucker trial too far!!!!!!
Brent won it. Fair play to him he has actually enjoyed growing his tash and was well chuffed when he got served in the Mu and never got asked for ID. Well done Brent :) personally I thought Hitler / Charlie Chaplin should have won it :) it was a cracking night
got to say thats been the hardest challenge ever....goodbye tash and hello top lip. there were some top tash's in there boys all for a good cause...but remember it takes a gadgey to grow a tash like mine.
