Thread: Possible Brisbane and SE Qld meet up

Hi Mike,

Yep the Gotta works really well on the upper lip, I find I only need to go wtg and xtg with it. Much closer for the same passes with the Bismarck.

Looking forward to the meet

I'll bring my 7/8 TI to the catch-up and you can try ATG on the top lip with that, Kev - if you want.

Looks like I will not be shaving before I come….

Is anyone going to bring stuff they want to swap or sell? I have a few items that need new homes soap wise etc?

i will have some razors, maybe a strop and brush if they have not all gone by then. Happy to trade for stuff, but looking at finishing hones really. Do not need anymore soaps.
Will play it by ear on the day.
Should all be fun.

I have just learnt a new way to do the "fools pass"….much less foolish I think…ha ha…

I don't have anything to trade unfortunately, apart from the sight-unseen razor from larry which I know you will all be fighting over

I'm just bring my glorious self this time around. More of a say g'day to old friends and make new friends thing.

If anyone's interested, I have a tub of TOBS shave cream I tried once (no double dipping lol) but prefer the T&H, so happy to offer it to anyone who can hone a razor for me and let me watch and explain the process. Id love to give it a go myself, but would feel too bad if I scratched or damaged someone else's hone - rather make that mistake on my own gear. Also have a full size tube of TriShave shave cream and aftershave balm I'd like to put up for lucky door prizes for the group. I don't think the Trishave stuff is expensive but free is always good And I must say, I'm not 100% sure about the cream (great for travel as no lather required etc and it certainly provides a smooth and comfortable shave, but lose the ritual of building a good lather) but the aftershave cream is fantastic in my opinion. Works better than the much more expensive stuff I have tried.

Finally, last call if anyone wants decaf coffee, as Im heading into city on weekend to buy some more coffee pods, otherwise you're all stuck with caffeine.

Anyone have requirements re non/low fat milk / soy, or is everyone happy for me to grab full cream (let me know your preference, no imposition). No hurry on the answer re milk as long as I have a day or 2 before the meetup.
