Does anyone want to meet up this weekend, short notice i know, but i am around all weekend and could do pretty much anytime that anyone else could. I dont have a venue yet but in the worst case we could meet at my place, though it is all boxes and paint tins at the moment.
Let me know, and if anyone will need a lift also let me know and we will try to sort something out.
Sorry for starting a new thread, the old ones seemed to be going nowhere, and are now going a bit off topic.
Regards Ed
I'm in for this weekend! Happy to meet anywhere that suits others. Very keen to meet some Perth SRP members.
Cool, saturday would be better than sunday, i am in midvale, but lets see if i can drum up a bit of interest from anyone else ( at very short notice, and decide where to go)
Saturday works well for me too. I'll be in Darlington Saturday day/night, so Midvale works well for me too. Will wait to see if anyone else wants to join and then confirm a location and time.
Look at that, it must have been fate :)Quote:

Be sure to post some pics! :)
At this stage we only have 2 attendees, but i will try :)Quote:

Sorry no piccies, but james and i had a nice chat over lunch, he mentioned coming to see you randy.
Good morning :)
I know it is now Saturday 10:24 AM here and Saturday 11:24 PM there. :) I looked it up in the Wikipedia! :)
Perth seems to be a very nice place to live but your seasons are backward! It is summer here! :)
Yes, I look forward to meeting James on Monday the 16th and maybe one more time before he departs to home. One thing I need to do is find out what things James wants to cover in the short time he will be here.
I am glad you guys got together. That is how all this starts and usually the small meets work the best.
It is impossible to get everyone together at the same time. A bunch of us here at SRP have tried that, but it does not work. So, just set your date, time & place and send out the PM/emails.
What has proven popular here in Minnesota is a razor scale making workshop. It started with 4 of us and now 2 more want to attend and I have yet to send out any invites to the local guys! :) The guys in California held a small informal meet and they made custom razor collars. When we have the bigger meets everyone wants to hone razors. At Charlie Lewis workshop we grind razors. The new guys need to learn stropping, beard prep, shaving technique and edge maintenance . The lesson I have learned is that people want to do things.
So that will be my focus here in Minnesota from now on.
Good luck to you guys, :)
Perth isnt terribly exciting, but nice enough, a touch hot over the summer months though.Quote:
