Hey all you fellows, Just thought I'd give a wave and stuff to you all from a guy who's been lurking for a little while.
About me? I'm a 30something from QLD, Office admin worker for a medium sized company. I enjoy the good things in life, and to that end, I've splurged a little bit in the last year or so and gotten into the Wet shaving 'thing'.
Yeah, I used to use electric trimmers, and those gawdawful Mach3 with GoopInACan. I can proudly say that I have finally seen the light my good brothers in badgerbristles, Hallieghluiah! Yes, I no longer purchase that expensive goop that always made my face feel like it was covered in half a tonne of slime and the 15 dollar packets of razors that only lasted me one shave each, and I have now Gone the route that many have lead with. I've got a small collection of straight razors (two Dovos, one ebony shelled 5/8ths, one plastic shelled 5/8ths, A Comoy branded Cheapie 7/8ths, and a Wahl disposable blade) a DE razor, A Pair of Strops and a couple of Badger Bristle brushes, both Comoy Brand. I tend to use the Ebony Dovo more then the others, as it seems to just be the nicer, (the comoy branded one's really just for mucking around really)
So yeah, apart from the shaving, I don't mind a drop of good coffee, tea, and chocolate. Plus The odd wee dram of single malt.
That's pretty much me really. Hope to hear a friendly word from all you dudes!
