Tom Bostock is a teacher from Brighton. Along with his colleagues (to follow), Tom enjoyed a warm upper lip throughout Movember. He told us: 'Movember is a great event. It works so cleverly in making the often unspoken, private realm of male cancer so visible and worthy of discussion. I will actually miss my mo. It's been interesting seeing myself look a bit more... Belgian. Also, I've enjoyed the furtive, fraternity style nods at fellow Mo Bros in the street (I hope they were actually Mo Bros)' Photograph: PR

Phil, a fellow teacher alongside Tom, said of his moustache: 'I've almost got used to being a pariah in my own household' (though we actually think it's very becoming) Photograph: PR

Roland Paterson didn't tell us much about himself when he sent in this picture. We can only speculate on what lies beneath the dashing 'tache and country gent attire Photograph: PR
