Cordial Greetings One and All

Thanks for the warm welcome chaps. Being marooned here in the Middle Kingdom I miss a bit of good-natured banter, scatological or otherwise. It does seem though that I have chanced upon a hive of anally-retentive perverts of the highest order. Marvellous. Now, I really do appreciate all the tips very much (thanks for the links btw). I tried hand-stropping in the past but now much prefer to use a piece of what the Colonists call Styrofoam (I've forgotten what we call it, someone plse refresh my addled memory). I find a pass in each direction on both sides does the trick. An uncorked Derby is a wild beast, at least on my - admittedly sensitive - hide. Some kind chap once sent me a pack of different blades and there were a couple which I though were really good: 7'0clock being one of them. As for the few Chinese-made blades, believe me, they are utter crap and next-to-useless. So I'll just have to hope on making it out of here some day back to Civilisation. I think I'll probably go a bit mad for a while. Now here's something to keep the sickos amongst you entertained. I did consider trying to have an inclined shave at the same time but thought better of it: somehow colonic irrigation and surgical sharpness just don't seem to go together: <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k1ZBJxdhL3A&feature=related" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k1ZBJxdh ... re=related</a><!-- m -->, <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EP-jyVI4pnk" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EP-jyVI4pnk</a><!-- m -->, . Beam me up Scottie!:) :D

Welcome I think!!
I've recently taken to using a pair of REAL discarded hands from the local hospital for the hot towel routine.
It's also really fun pretending to strangle myself around the door.
It really makes. The kids laugh!!
Cheers
Tim.
