The inhabitants of DadTalk towers have decided to take part in the yearly event that is Movember again this year.
Basically they are each going to grow a moustache in return for donations. All money collected goes towards prostate and testicular cancer initiatives.
If you would like to join our efforts (and we would love for members of the DadTalk community to join in) - you can sign up to the DadTalk team here
Or if you don't want to grow a MO you could always donate here
Check out the DadTalk team page for regular photo updates of how the team are doing.

I'll be keeping a close eye on harveysdad this year after last years FAIL!!
I'm NEVER doing it again but well done to those that are. (I think my wife still has nightmares!)
I wasn't planning on doing it, but there seems to be a bit of momentum for this at work with two or three people in my office saying they'd sponsor, so I wasn't going to waste the opportunity, so I signed up and joined the dadtalk team, and will remind them of their sponsorship promise at the end of November 😀

To be fair you were sporting the gay biker look last Movember - it gave everyone nightmares 😀
Yeah I am doing it too - have signed up for Dadtalk team
Should keep the wife away for a couple of weeks and I am going to get abuse at work
All in a good cause!!
I reckon we need pictures guys!
Personally, I cant join in with the mo growing, not sure my wife would ever let me back in the house if I appear in all the photos of our little man (if he ever arrives!) with some kind of caterpillar crawling across my face.
But i'll put my money in for everyone else
There should be (and are in some cases) photo's on the DadTalk Movember team page.
As soon as there is some serious tache growth I may post some of them on here - depends how the donations go 😉

We have raised a whopping £235 so far but we need your money - it doesn't matter if it is only £1 but it is for a very worthy cause relating to prostate and testicular cancer.
If I have to look ridiculous for the next 24 days then surely some of you can support us!!!

I shall be reminding people in the office that they promised to sponsor participants 😀
Well it is great to be clean shaven again and I think we have raised over £500 so well done all.
As for the gay biker look - I got described by two separate people as a 1970s Geography teacher and then a 1970s porn star!!!
Not sure which I preferred!!
Also mad me think of my Geography teacher in a porn film - now there's an image I want to erase right now!!!
Yeah, couldn't wait to shave mine off - my wife definitely prefers me without it.
Shaved it off and people at work said I looked younger - maybe I should grow one every few months!!
Hi Babel
Think we got nearly £600 - and there are some photos are on the Movember site
