Easy come, easy go

We are wicked crazy for Children In Need!

I read on the intranet that, among (many) other things, there is a Sponsored Head Shave to raise money for the aforementioned Children, and that only men had signed up to it so far. This struck me as sexist, and also lame because for most boys shaving your head for charity is just a free haircut. But, for girls, it is unusual! It is an event! It is a real statement! Also I have never had my head shaved and I am curious.

So, I told my team that if they raised £5000 between them by Friday (tomorrow), I would have my hair shaved off, too. I asked what the sponsorship total was at 4:30pm this afternoon, and the only answer I got was an enigmatic smile.

I will pledge £10,000 if you have your head shaved and run around head office yelling 'they got me, they got me'. Wearing the pelt of a polar bear

Am I the only person who is curious about the story of Pudsey's ocular disability? I wonder if they considered other afflictions before poking out the eye? Just thinking out loud.

Good luck with the hair thing.
