Hi BD, It's the last day for Movember donations and I can only imagine that as an Ultimate player, being who they are, you probably intended to donate to somebody and thought you had plenty of time. At this point, that would be wrong.
If you don't already know Movember is a world wide charitable effort in aid of Prostate cancer and cancer charities in general. The effort in this case being, people who more often than not, do not carry a moustache (aka 'mo') gracefully, grow one in earnest for the duration of November in order to be the brunt of jokes and lively conversation throughout the month. If you've seen quite a few mo's around town and around tournament lately, this is the reason. The question however is have you supported them? If don't know anybody rocking a mo then let me help out... Jim Hancox - http://uk.movember.com/mospace/516438/ Phil Richardson - http://uk.movember.com/mospace/279382/ Graham "Nimble" Wilson - http://uk.movember.com/mospace/948586/ Dom Papineau - http://uk.movember.com/mospace/1276026/ Dave McKenzie - http://uk.movember.com/mospace/648766/ Matt Gorham - http://uk.movember.com/mospace/909990/ Vito Vitali - http://uk.movember.com/mospace/545704/ apologies if I've missed you off the list but it does go on and on. (I fear the day everybody had a moustache and nobody is left to donate) If you haven't gotten on board then you've got only a short time. If you, like many out there, already support a few charities that are near and dear to your heart then that's excellent! I will then appeal to the fact that supporting a person who is doing something charitable (whether stalwart or silly) is in support of both the person and the charity do please don't dismiss the idea because it's yet another charity thing. Look at the list and if you've been taught by Nimble, been a junior player under Phil's coaching or even met any of the people in that list you'll know they are all great individuals who will appreciate greatly any support you can give. In short if you like them enough to buy them a pint then pick a link and donate £2. If you're feeling saucy then why not donate a round for all! Thanks to all those who have helped out so far! It really lifts the spirits each time a donation email arrives in the inbox far more than any pint ever has. I will be carrying my mo on through until Copa de Crimbo. It should be fairly beefy by then so you'll see me there.
