The month of November is at an end. My upper lip is especially itchy today almost as if it is anticipating its return to freedom from fuzz! <\/p>\n

It\u2019s not too late for you to sponsor<\/a> this work of art. It is in aid or help for male cancers and in memory of my Father-in-Law who died this past year. This time last year I did not know he was sick. Now he is with Jesus. The least I could do was grow a moustache for a month!<\/p>\n
