Are you currently sporting a bushy mouth brow all in the name of Movember (and not just because you keep forgetting to shave like this particular JOE)? Well we’ve got some good news for you…

It’s nearing the end of November, which means you’ll soon start to see less handlebar, pencil and all-round tacky looking moustaches, but the good news (if you consider the last point as bad news) is that Ireland currently ranks 6th overall for donations raised. WOO HOO!

Ireland is currently sandwiched nicely in between New Zealand and Norway with Canada proudly sitting atop of the leaderboard with a whopping €11,991, 153 raised at the time of writing.

Here’s brief look at the top ten, but you can see the full list, along with how many people have registered for Movember in each country over on the official Movember website.

Fair play to all the Mo Bros out there and may your nose tickler grow long and mighty… until Monday when you shave it all off. Movember really is a great cause and one that’s very close to JOE’s mouth heart, as you’re doing a world of good by helping to raise money and awareness of men’s health.
