‘Chopcember’ is a shameless rip-off of ‘Movember’, but a little bit better. We are embarking on a challenge to grow a full juicy set of mutton-chop sideburns, like those below, for the month of December, and this is a call for you to join us. Its a celebration of facial hair everywhere (apart from on the chin).

It's great to see so many chops around the office already. Glad so many of you are getting involved.

 If you'd like to make any contributions at all to Ed 'Chopper' Johnson's designated charity, Watford mencap (http://www.watfordmencap.org.uk/professionals/leisure_activities/leisure_together) that he does some fantastic work for all year round, please feel free to do so.

Thanks.
