So, you've received yet another request for sponsorship from somebody trying to raise money for a charity that's important to them.

Well, you don't have to sponsor me much, you don't actually have to sponsor me at all, but all I ask is that you take a few minutes to consider it and maybe look at the Prostate Cancer UK website.

If it sways your decision at all, I'm not asking you to sponsor me to do something exciting that I'd probaly enjoy like a 100 mile cycle or climbing a mountain. No, I'm going to make myself look stupid for a month by cultivating a very poor 'tasch'!

So, final plea - please please dig deep and donate now.
