    Default Shhh Don't tell the wife I've been reading her Emails :D New TI for Christmas!

    Well I've been using a SR since August. So I thought I would ask for a new one for Christmas. I already knew what I wanted, And sent her to the page earlier! Well we got a conformation email earlier.... I now have to wait till Christmas to test my new TI 7/8 basic black from TI UK. We also have to wait for stock to come back in.

    This will be my first new, Decent brand razor.

    The ones I have atm are a 5/8 astra I got cheap on ebay that I suspect is from eastern europe. It's a reasonable age not new by any means. And a 7/8 Artemis Pakistani razor that is actually pretty good. Hence why I went for the 7/7 TI rather than the 11/16 or the 5/8 "Le Grelot" form that I was originally looking at


    5 weeks till I get to test it! Lets just hope TI UK get stock in for me .

    I agree! It can lead to trouble. But - since you already did it, I stumbled across my wife's stash of presents for me once when I was much younger. Saw something I REALLY wanted to try out before Christmas so I used a razor blade, carefully sliced it open, and then.... well, it's probably not a good idea. Nah, forget about it...

    You know, occasionally wives/girlfriends will sign up on SRP to get gift ideas for the man in their life - here's hoping she didn't see this thread....

    Anyway, sounds like you have a nice razor on the way. Enjoy at X-mas time

    the Email address she used is a joint one for the joint bank account and most of our online stuff. I'm not great with surprises and tend to be very specific about what I want at Christmas and birthdays and so I've not done anything out of the ordinary.

    Was just very pleased to see that message from TI UK saying that they were just waiting stock.

    I have another present due as well from her family. We do a single £50 present rather than multiple small presents from everyone. That present also tends to be something you want rather than something someone thinks you would like. I'm thinking about using it to get the King Ice bear 1K/6K. It should fill a nice void in my equipment.
