Thread: Hi everybody - another newbie to the fold...

Well, I've arrived! First of all can I say what a pleasure it is to have access to this site - such a wealth of experience and knowledge. Grateful thanks especially to Lynn for the DVD received in record time today. I can heartedly recommend this as a great resource for any newbie - packed full of useful information and demonstrations. Excellent work.

I look forward to being part of this community both as an 'apprentice' and maybe later with a voice of experience. I can honestly say that I might have given up already had it not been for the forum.

I'm hailing from the UK in the Midlands. A Christmas gift of a stainless straight (I had hinted strongly!) had me enthused very quickly, so much that I had to purchase a new Dovo within a week (well, we have to 'rest' our razors don't we? ). I'm pleased, and smoothly shaved (though I admit I had to get a load of research in to overcome a few days of soreness). Bring it on....
