Hi gang, I've taken quite a sabbatical from all forums mainly to take care of other issues in real life and because I didn't have anything new to contribute. Hopefully, my time off has given me new perspectives that I can share and be a positive contributor once again. I'm looking forward to getting reacquainted with everyone. Steve
Thanks for returning to TSD, this is the best wet shave board on the planet! How do you like your Wapi?
Well, I don't have a usable Wapi anymore. I chipped the blade at the point and haven't gotten the nerve to try and grind it out yet. However, it was one of my favorite blades when I could use it.
That is a drag. They used to be super cheap, and I guess they still are, all things considered. But they used to be available for about half of what they are going for now!
True. I couldn't believe how much they were going for the last time I checked. I'll get this one salvaged someday.
Welcome back! I don't know if I agree about not having anything new to contribute, but I understand life getting busy.
Welcome back again Steve. I had run across some of your posts after your first return when you battled sepsis, and was wondering where you had disappeared to. Glad to read your sabbatical wasn't health related again.
Welcome back from someone who joined long after you. This reminds me of a couple of bicycling forums I haven't visited for a while.
Oh, it happens for sure. But your disorder is our gain. I'm glad to see you back posting again Steve. And btw, I have a shave ready Wapi here not being used atm. I'd be more than happy to do a loaner with you if you wanted to send me your chipped one to fix up. It is a bit of a drama for you with me being in Aus., but the offer is there if you want it. James.
Always very generous, my friend. Thanks for the offer but this is one project I want to learn to do for myself. I broke it, I need to fix it. I'm stubborn that way sometimes. Not sure if that's a flaw or a virtue, sometimes It's great to see you again.
Hey glad you decided to come back!! Thanks for your advice! Sounds to me like you have plenty of good advice to give.
Hercule Poirot is back Hello Steve, nice to see you back. I know exactly how you feel about running out of things to talk about. I've been extremely quiet here. Nobody seems to have missed me though, sob sob. Anyway, since you are back I will make more of an effort here. Kristian
