I suggest that you "share the hair", if you can. Hack the hank and I hope that you raise a bundle of bucks.
Wigs for chemo cancer patients are very much appreciated for simple human dignity.
I've been a care-giver twice now. Hair is a big deal, so I have observed.

I'm still pleased that you have looked into the possibility. I't's very important.
Just tragic when they see that the last of their hair has plugged the shower drain.
A duster for the window sills would be honorable.

No,no, no! Cut your hair for yourself, not for anyone else.

I have raised money for charity from as far back as I can remember; But I am never going to do anything that makes me look silly, and I am doubtful about respecting anyone who does.

Did you not read the bit where he's always said when it thins, he's going to cut it off? So he is doing it for himself. That he's going to make the most of it to benefit some others is admirable surely?

Looking in the mirror in the right light, I nowadays catch a not infrequent glimpse of gleaming pate. So have been similarly kicking around the idea of a shearing. So far, Mrs Whoop is unmoving in her resistance to this. But the day is getting nearer. So happy to chip in, and look forward to witnessing the event and assisting with the pre-drinking.
