    Default She's on her way to Wales.

    Just happened to get hold of the rare and elusive creature after much tense negotiations finally I sealed the deal. A NOS Filarmonica 'Novodur' No. 14 para professional 8/8 half hollow, comes with the original factory edge can't wait to hone her and give her a run out.

    That baby is beautiful!
    I am a bit envious at the moment.
    Treat it well.

    Damn it! Why couldn't you have paid me to bring it over for you special delivery or something. I would have nursed it and cared for it on the plane trip and everything.

    That would have been idea Mick, as next weekend we play the Aussies at the millenium stadium you could have sung both anthems and get away with it, I sure you wouldn't enjoy the weather here at the moment as it would freeze the balls off a brass monkey.

    That's the sort of weather I live for. We get cool weather here, maybe about one week of the year. It just isn't enough, nor is it any where cold enough. I love the cold. I'll be right over for a cuppa . There's only one Anthem I sing in situations like the one you mention and it has nothing to do with yellow dirt and girting seas...Actually I just don't sing that one at all. Flatly refuse too. I don't know how any Aussie could sing that tripe and feel even an inkling of patriotism.

    Cymru am byth...

    Not sure about the tacky fireworks at the end, but kudos to you for supporting a proper sport.

    That is a very very nice razor. You are a lucky man. It's too bad you have to knock the NOS off it to use it but I can understand that. Once it's yours, you are the one that places a value on it. I have 2 NOS items and it kills me to look at them and not use them. Self torture :<0)

    Nice Jamie, I can tell from the place mat it is coming from Aussie. The only NOS Filly i have, i just stropped her up and shaved, a few more laps than usual, and I wasn't disappointed to say the least. I think the Spaniards knew what "shave ready" meant at the factory.

    You are not wrong there Graeme they are first class shavers, only problem is this ones coming with the para barbas duras box and I'll be looking to trade this one for the Novodur para professional box.
