G'day from Tasmania AU

Stumbled across this site and thought it might be a bit of fun while gaining some knowledge along the way. Started off with the old shavette, which was a good investment at the time in regards to learning the basics without the stress of honing, stropping, wife nagging etc. Still need to master the intricacies that make this a cool hobby plus the second and third passes, as currently doing some minor modification and re-sculpturing to the chin with each. What else can I say apart from what an awesome way to kick off the day and turning the five o’clock shadow into a ten o’clock shadow.

How do I move this post to the introductions section? Rookie mistake number 1.

G'day Stripey, you must be the last of the Tassie Tigers then huh?! :) Or have you got your stripes some other way?! Welcome to SRP. There are a few other Aussies around here somewhere as well. No doubt they'll pop in for a look in some time soon. Take it slowly, no pressure, watch your angles and good prep beforehand goes a long way.


Mick

Welcome to SRP! :)

James.

Welcome Shavettes will shave. Straights can be more fun though.

Welcome aboard you devil you-har har.

I think you're the first from Tasmania.

There is another around here somewhere TBS. I've seen him around I'm sure.


Mick

Welcome to SRP.......................Enjoy the ride !:tu

Hey Stripey, good to see another Aussie on board! Enjoy yourself mate.

Welcome to SRP!

Welcome aboard Stripey.
Moved to "Introductions" :)

Welcome to SRP Stripey.
Good to see another Aussie on board

Welcome, I wonder how many active Australians there actually are now?

Well I wouldn't say I'm very active, because I do spend a lot of time sitting on my arse, browsing SRP. Sad really, isn't it?! :):p


Mick

Yes, I'm actually getting a little worried myself...

According to the member list there are currently 214 Aussie members, how many active is a whole different question :)

In the members list there is an Advanced option that can give you precise results re date posted, location & a bunch of other options.

I don't think members who have not completed their location details will show up & a search for 'Australia' will not show members who have listed their towns only.

+1 to that list.

38 on the list that have posted this year, and I'm the fourth most talkative. That wouldn't surprise anyone who knows me. I've tried telling my wife that 'deep down' I'm actually a shy person, she replied "But you never shut up!"...

I just added 'Australia' to my location. You're now the fifth most yappy person on the list. :). I now take third prize. Oz is first (Can't seem to shut the bugger up), and his good mate Jimbo 'Flap Jaw' J comes in second. Baldy knocked you down a peg to his fourth...Baldy, may the fourth be with you!
