Most of you are aware that each year I raise funds for Movember. This year I have been a bit slack as I've spent a lot of time working on Gene's stuff and a couple of hours a day for the last 5 weeks setting up the new server which I bought months ago but couldn't find time to deal with fixing and moving the bb's.
Several people have contacted me about contributing towards the bb costs. If you want to help, contribute to Movember below instead.
My annual outright call for donations, I am also going to auction a few chips for this cause shortly.
This fundraiser is significant to our team. Having had our rugby club MC David Kurk diagnosed with prostate cancer 4 years ago, another team member has recently had the same diagnosis.

It's Movember and time to make a difference.
Men’s health is a cause I am passionate about but in order to make a difference I need your help. My commitment is to grow a moustache for the month of November and in doing so, raise vital awareness and funds for mens health including prostate and testicular cancer.
I am asking you to help support my personal journey by making a donation. The size of which isn’t important, every little contribution helps Movember to continue its funding of world class programmes. If you want to know more about what you’ll be helping to fund, you can visit Movember's Program Overview page.
To highlight the importance of what I am doing, take a look at these statistics:
• 1 in 9 men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer in their lifetime
• This year 40,000 new cases of the disease will be diagnosed in the UK
• 47% of testicular cancer cases occur in men under 35 years and over 90% occur in men under 55 years
If you’d like to help change these statistics, please donate to me by:
