1. So sorry to hear this. Take it easy and allow some time to heal :poze:

  2. Bingo! More I will use the word news as if I unleash a run of explicitives Im feeling I may offend some. Apparently our efforts to control and clean up the water were enough and a bunch made it around a wall and half way across our mid level of the house and a bunch of our wood floors are starting to warp and curl at the edges. I know just let insurance deal with it but holy crap I can take much more of this bs. There was also a tv PlayStation and several other items of my son's in the basement that are apparently toast as well. Anxiety in this house is high to say the least.

  3. Keep a detailed list ... I've worked insurance; details from food loss to necessary clean up materials will help recupe losses.

  4. I'm worried / concerned about the potential gap between their estimate and what it will cost to fix the issues. We spent a small fortune when we had our floors done.

  5. I am sorry to hear of your trails and tribulations . I wish there was a way to convey my deepest sympathies other than just to say that I will keep you in my thought and prayers.

  6. That is awful news. Im sure your insurance company will sort at least most of it.

    My brother once lived in a small flat under a hotel while he worked there. The drains in the back streets became blocked when we had extremely heavy rain, and when we got another freak thunderstorm they burst and filled the streets. The fire service were called to save him but when they got there he was swimming in the sewage out of a small window at the top of the room. He lost all of his possessions and both of our cars were flooded. His floated away down the road. I had bought mine a week earlier.

    This story is meant to make you laugh - these things are sent to try us but with the help of your family you will find the strength to overcome them :)

  7. 1938-1945 Gillette Tech (Made in USA) (triangular slots) nickel plated and in what appears to be excellent condition (entire razor shines with no spots of discolouration). Won it in an eBay auction. No box/case but I can make one to store it in for now and maybe find a vintage Gillette box in the future.

    Should be here in the next couple days
  8. Pre-war Fat Handle Tech Set

  10. Excited to hear a review. Most of the Va Sheng knots I've used have been nice.

  14. Waiting on a order from Wild West Shaving that should arrive on Tuesday. I like that their soaps come in 2oz tins so it makes it easier for varitey. Peace Pipe, Cherokee, and I think the last one was Witchita.

    Also have a tub of Grooming Dept Wonderland that should arrive the same day. Really looking forward to this scent, performance is one of the best on the market IMO.
