No, this isn't COB trying to change the gregorian calendar to something more faith promoting. It's a sponsorship event in the UK aimed at raising the awareness of testicular and prostate cancer.

The idea is for gentleman types to grow a dirty caterpillar upon their top lip etc.
I, for one, will be attempting to leave my stiff upper lip free from the daily attacks of a blunt piece of metal for the month of November/Movember. Some will be able to produce big furry monstrosities that birds can nest in. Others prefer the pencil thin 50's style. Handlebars, Big 'burns and the full goatee are also acceptable forms of facial topiary.
So....will you do it?

I don't know how to post pictures. Besides, my lip is currently nude and that's not allowed...

I'm there already (with extras). You're going to have to catch up, chum.
This, or any other post that I have made or will make in the future, is strictly my own opinion and consequently of little or no value.
