MOVEMBER

This morning I found Wilson in the bathroom — an unusual event in itself — balancing on a chair so he could examine his chin in the mirror.

'What's up, old mate?' I asked him.


He replied that he was taking part in No-Shave November, AKA Movember, but was very disappointed by his lack of progress beard-wise.


I said he'd just have to be patient... for a few years. He is only eight, after all.


He then said that he thought he needed a Mission Statement, explaining that his Family Motto 'Lentus In Totus Res' (Slothful in All Things) doesn't accurately reflect his his ebullient and can-do attitude to life.


I told him I'd give it some thought, and I'd also ask you if you have any ideas. What do you think?


• Yesterday's fANTastic! answer is: ANTlers — which many of you correctly guessed.
• Today's fANTastic! question is: This ANT has an Atomic Number of 51, and he sounds like an anarchist. What ANT is it?


 I can't even remember what an Atomic Number is...
