It's the last few days of #Movember.

I hope you like the handlebar mo which I have grown in memory of my Dad who sadly recently passed away from Prostate Cancer.

Please help ease the heartbreak and suffering this disease brings to those affected here:

This Movember, I’m growing my moustache in loving memory of my dad, who passed away just a few weeks ago after his battle with prostate cancer.

I’d be truly grateful if you could support the Movember Foundation here:
