O/T Al's movember effort

Submitted: Saturday, Dec 01, 2007 at 08:09

Al & Mrs Al (Vic)

As some of you are aware, Al became a citizen of Movember, growing a Mo for a month to raise money for Prostate Cancer and Beyond Blue. And as promised here is the result!

Al raised over $1000, and was the highest fundraiser for Pioneer Water Tanks, he also took out best Mo.

But as the say in the classics "hair today, gone tomorrow" and he gladly shaved off his effort this morning..much to the relief of all living here!



cheers Lyn

He reminds me of that cartoon character with the blazing guns.

The end result didn't come up too bad, Mrs Al. He should've kept it...or was it too ticklish....lol

Good on ya Al for raising all that money!

Aw, he looked so "mean" with the Mo. What a dude!

Now he's "ordinary Al" again.

I grew one once when I was younger, but shaved it off when I was accused of looking like a "Mafia wannabe".

At least he produced a great fundraising effort.
On ya Al!

Hi Jimbo

I don't think he'd like to be any taller, even if it meant hair regrowth...a cpl of weeks ago my sister in law commented that he could paint her ceiling without needing a ladder...you should have seen her eyes light up!...Al quickly pointed out he was unavailable... :))
