For the month of November a group of Boyle gentlemen will be attempting to grow and tame some moustaches in a ‘Movember’ campaign or ‘Niamhember’ as they are calling it to raise funds in aid of ” Niamh’s Journey There”. Let’s hope there is good growth during November and it brings with it a whole host of silly, bizarre, and overly ambitious moustache attempts!
