Hey up!
This PIF is open to any active member who has made several posts (so no new accounts with no posts). Although I think the items will have more appeal to newbies than old hands! They must live in the UK and postage will be included.
I will leave it open until next Sunday evening to give anyone interested a chance to enter, then the names will be put in a hat and drawn by a suitable dignitary (probably SWMBO, although the dog is always a stand by). I will then attempt to find a Post Office (apparently our local one closed a couple of weeks ago, so it will be a voyage of discovery!)
As usual in these things, please follow the standard format in your response if you are interested -
1. Username
2. Username
etc, etc
Now to the contents -
The box will contain -
Brush - Omega Pro 49 boar
Razor 1 - Qshave adjustable (Merkur Futur clone)
Razor 2 - Lord L6
Soap - Wilkinson Sword shaving soap bowl
Plus Assorted razor blades and some styptic matches
The brush has had good reviews, I find it a bit big but others do not. The Futur clone is a great razor, it can be quite mild on it’s lower settings or aggressive if that’s what you want, I find I prefer fixed razors. The soap gives an excellent lather with a light, fresh scent and it’s only been used about 4 times. The Lord razor is a classic, mild and light, it’s a 3 piece, which I find tricky sometimes. The matches are to stem the blood caused by the selection of blades, some being sharper than others!
Thanks for reading this, I hope someone finds some of the items interesting and/or useful.
Good luck to all who enter.
Ken
