I'm going to appeal to the general SN community here. I've been a member here for quite a few years, and have never done a sponsored event in my adult life.

I'm planning on changing that today, and have agreed to grow a moustache for the month of Movember in support of men's health. In particular this is to support research into testicular cancer and prostrate cancel.

Now, before the ladies stop reading this, please remember that you want your men to have these parts too!!!

For those of you that know me, I am a geek. Being a geek, I'm not going to grow a moustache in the normal way. The aim is to try and grow a tash saying the word Movember, spelt in binary. Yes, that is going to be quite a challenge.

I have no idea if I will manage to do it, but I am going to do my very best. Large amounts of time will be taken up trying to groom the tash to read:

I've never grown a tash, and I know I am really setting the bar high with trying to work that into the design.

Please take the opportunity to sponsor me here:

If you give generously photos will be posted to this thread...no matter how daft they make me look.

You`ll need a very wide face to fit all that on

Yes, yes, I have been doing some planning, and I think it may just fit. Will have to see.

Perhaps Lance Armstrong would sponsor you? Now I read that binary code as November.

I wish you well

Hmm, best fiddle with that binary code a bit more. Thanks David

Somehow I doubt I will be getting sponsorship from Lance Armstrong....but its still a good cause

Just double checked, and the two translators I used both showed it as Movember. I'll do a couple more checks before finally grooming my tash.

Perhaps I will get a better response once I get the tash going

I assume the idea is to emulate some seventies **** star

For most its to emulate some seventies **** star, some do the Fredie MErcury. While most just end up looking really dodgy.

That's why I decided to try and do something different and grow a tash that is going to spell something in binary. I've been looking at Movember and also Mobro, as that is somewhat shorter!!

The photoshop plan will be posted shortly!

isnt that the same thing ?? lol

Good Luck

Luminous

iTrader: (3)

Well, yes, I guess it is the same thing

I will need all the luck I can get, I really do want to get a binary tash going that actually says something about what I am trying to do. Just growing a dodgy looking tash has all been done before.....

...only problem is that in order to get some of the sponsorship I have asked for I have agreed to post pics on Facebook Just passing the £200 mark for sponsorship in total now

A big thanks to all for the support so far.

Yes, I shall be doing the same.

For the next task I need to find something to shave with that can cut binary digits into my beard. The ladies eyebrow trimmer I got my hands on does not seem to be doing the job!
