Guest blog: 10 days in and mo grow slow

Simon is 10 days into Movember

Well, progress isn't exactly thick and fast, as you can see from the photo, but there isn't 'something there'.

Although Simon doesn't seem to be overly thrilled at some of the comparisons we've been making between him and famous characters of television.

Here is his update:

Day 10 - Well, after 10 days I'm now the proud (?) owner of a moustache.

I've never let my facial hair grow to this extent and quite frankly wasn't sure I'd be able to grow anything impressive but it seems I can. Deep joy.

So far my dear colleagues at BBC Jersey office have told me I look like Walker from Dads Army and Manuel from Fawlty Towers. Our political reporter Christie Tucker asked if I'd fallen into a cactus. Charming, I'm sure you'll agree.

Thank you for your donations so far. Despite constantly itching my face I'm glad I'm raising money for this worthy cause.

You can see my progress by visiting BBC Jersey's Facebook and keeping an eye on this blog.
