    Default Oh no! Another Aussie!

    G'day my name is Ben. I'm reasonably new here but great to see other Brisbanites on this site. I've just purchased my first SR from Obie, a true gent, and eagerly awaiting it's arrival. For the past few years l have been using a Merkur Futur DE and love it. I've always wanted to change it up so here we go! I love taking the time of a morning to spend a few minutes in front of the mirror and enjoy the moment. Nice soap, soft brush, hot towel, you understand. It's a time where life is quiet and it's just you and your thoughts. It's golden before you have to face another day at work. By trade l am a paramedic and things can get stressful really quickly. So with this new direction can any locals recommend any 'Honemeisters' in the Brisbane area? I'd really appreciate any information. Thanks for hearing my thoughts.
    Cheers,
    Ben.

    Welcome aboard Ben. Maybe pm Jimbo re honing up there but I expect razor will come honed from Obie.

    Yes, welcome Ben

    I'm not TOO far away from Brisbane! I'm definitely going to have to come down and see the Brisbane team before too long.

    Cheers,

    Aidan.
