i owe you thanks for a pointer to that badger and brush site. HRH is now sick and tired of me going 'feel this - smooooth' and if i recall Harley5 was preaching the same thing years ago.
Filed under 'things i really wish my grandad had taught me'.

i'm not sure that not vaping is an achievement, by which i mean you and i had not been vaping using nicotine for a while before that anyway. So it's not much more than stopping a hand to mouth habit. What it is, is an example to even the heaviest of smokers (and i was 40 a day) that vaping works. You can get off cigarettes, you can get off nicotine, and you can stop totally if you like.

The real problem is - if we all stop smoking and live to 100, the alimony will be crippling.

Some old timers here may remember Della. She did the same thing, stopped smoking, then stopped vaping and i know because she returned gear to me that i never expected to see again.

B&B is my new guilty pleasure for sure. I'm glad you have enjoyed the link I provided. As to my quitting vaping I have to say I find I seem to have a little more energy lately and find it much easier to breathe for the 1st time in 40 or so yrs...

btw... I've been divorced for over 30yrs now so alimony was and will never be a problem!!

I've been using your B&B link quite a bit myself. When you posted it, I had a one vintage Gillette razor. Now I have dozens. I don't know if I should thank you or not.

i now have a couple of safety razors - one is crap and the other is a good German one and today i got a cut-throat or straight razor because i'm not cutting myself enough so i need something more difficult to use maybe and a strop etc!

Bear in mind i shave my head too (well apart from the bald bit) so i have become really proficient with a safety. But i have the routine down now and all the aftershave balms and blood-clotting agents (hehe) so it's become quite an indulgence.

My plan is to use the safety during the week, when i am more pressed for time and the real McCoy on the weekends. i haven't used the old Mach3 in a month.

When I shaved, these were my constant companions...

Wow! Nice gift. That gal has to be a keeper. :)
My biking experiences were all along the coast. I always had a mountain bike that never saw the dirt, but I'd put 70 miles on it over a Saturday, and Sunday.
Sounds nice! I bet riding along the Pacific coast is epic.

GREAT to hear Rob has a plan to keep the business and brand alive - I was truly dreading his retirement, thinking that Reo might go the way Provape went...but no - this sounds like excellent news:

Thank you also for posting! Great to see that Robert will get to semi-retired and that the best mod IMHO will continue! Bravo!
