Farewell, Movember!

Here we are. The first of December. Farewell November... and 'Movember'. I wonder how many men in London - indeed, across the UK - spent a bit more time in the bathroom this morning to shave off the furry caterpillar that they've been growing above their top lip to support 'Movember'.

When I met Stephen Fry at the Guildhall a couple of weeks ago, I was quite surprised to see the moustache that he was growing to support the charity - and since then, I've lost count of the number of moustaches - some of them impressive (well, if you like that sort of thing...), others noticeably ratty and under-developed - parading around the capital, as if it had been invaded by a group of 1970s porn stars.
It's all for a very good cause, mind you, and I hope that it raised a lot of money (not to say, a few smiles) and awareness of men's health issues, including depression and prostate cancer. For more details, take a look at http://uk.movember.com/
