    Wow. Sad news indeed. TSD will be greatly missed. I've been MIA the last couple of years as life got in the way but this news still sucks.
    Thanks to the admins for everything over the years.

    The fact that you wore the veg to the intake interview probably didn't help. I did try to warn you.

    Things are well. I been trying to get back on here but I kept putting it off. Joe @Trigger contacted me yesterday checking on me and letting me know that the Den was closing down.

    It is with regret that we all hear of the intended closure of The Shave Den.

    For me it has been a fun 3 years of hanging out at TSD, sharing each other’s shaving tips, photos, experiences, shaving gear, recommendations, friendship, camaraderie and light hearted banter.

    Thanks to sparky and JoAnna @Queen of Blades for hosting and moderating

    Special thanks to the following who all helped me tremendously in the initial stages of my fledging shaving days:

    @PLANofMAN
    @John Beeman
    @Enrico
    @swarden43
    @Jorvaljr
    @riverrun
    @PanChango
    @ischiapp
    @gorgo2
    @brit

    Admiration for the collections of many of the members, in particular
    Joseph @Primotenore (Mr Oud)
    Gary @brit (all things Gillette)

    Fond memories of the companionship at the 30 Day Rule focus thread…
    … recently most capably led by Joe @Trigger with cajoling support from the other Joe…Joe @JACarbone

    with tireless support by
    Gary @brit
    and the most recent regulars
    Barry @palmolive fox
    John @Screwtape
    Casey @Casey 1988
    Paul @blondblue
    Charlie @wristwatchb
    Pierpaolo @ischiapp
    Paul @vittoria

    apologies if I missed anyone else.

    Lastly, the Everything Else/Clean Jokes section/cartoon should also be mentioned: it seldom failed to raise a giggle and the not-so-occasional guffaw!

    All the best to one and all, who knows: our digital paths may cross elsewhere in the near future.

    Regards

    ChrisB
