Hello there. Those of you that know me may be aware that I like to do my bit for charity. I'm a giving guy, and always have been. I'll hold my hands up to that. Over the years I've done various things, but this Movember I faced my toughest challenge yet. Along with my work colleagues and thousands of men around the world I have been attempting to grow a moustache in aid of the Prostate Cancer Charity. Whilst some gentlemen may find such a challenge fun, stimulating, or even easy, this was not the case for me...
The one thing I was fairly confident I wouldn't have to worry about was the actual growing process. If you're lucky enough you may have witnessed the 'forest of love' that is my stomach you will know that follicley-challenged I am not. But this was far from my main concern.
When you think of Sam Priddy you think of two things: sexy football and sexy women. I was confident that my football would not suffer. If anything, I mused on a rainy late-October afternoon, my hirsute lip might strike fear into opposing defenses. I was more concerned, as ever, with the ladies. When you have a face like mine certain things are taken for granted, and adding a furry accessory could jeopardise my entire reputation. Whilst Movember has so far seen a continuation of the scintillating soccer that scouts across the world are used to seeing from me, the line of women that used to greet me outside my house every morning has dwindled, nay, stopped altogether. This has been a very hard time for me, and so any money you could donate to this fine charity would certainly help to cheer me up. I’ve done the math, and if every one of my Facebook friends gives just a pound we will have made £1,346,899. And people think that popularity is overrated…
In all seriousness though, whilst this explanation must have convinced you of my idiocy, the cause is most definitely one worth supporting. This charity works to provide support and information on prostate cancer, as well as funding further research into the causes of the disease. All the information you need to know can be found at www.prostate-cancer.org.uk, and if you want to know more about Movember head to www.movember.com.
