Just watched cassetteboy's latest video on youtube. It's the only time our clown of a PM sounds coherent.

Fuck ground clearance, I want a step

Split between Grumpy and Grinny.

My shaver packed up about a year ago.  I had a Philishave one in reserve but it was a bit crap.  Bought a Chinese one from AldiLidl.  Not bad at first, rubbish now.

Bought some shaving gel yesterday and had a wet shave today - disposable cheapshit razors that have been here for years, god knows why as I haven't had a wet shave since early seventies.

I was hesitant but it worked well and was faster than anticipated, and not as painful either

The anointment of shaving gel on my clothes and floor, the blood on the towels and bath mat were only to be expected.  A negative bonus.

May even get shaved again.  Not too soon hopefully.

It was with great interest I learnt the spirits are back at work .   One building had to be blessed a few years back , but Halloween brings it all back out  . 

I will have a word with them ...

The only spirits here are Johnnie Walker ones - or were, the bottle is empty now

Wet Mach 3, M9. Erasmic foam if you can get it, any other if not.

I found The Sweeney at CVS tonight.

I remember Erasmic from the sixties.  I had a job finding anything and had to ask.  No idea what it is except blue.

Whatsa Wet Mach?

Gillette Mach3 razor, used wet.

[myglaren]

May just give that a try.  Lots of disposable ones to wear out first though.

There is a shaving thread somewhere on your favourite beige forum.

It's one of the many overpriced multiblade shaving jobbies. See also the Gillette Venus. 

Shaving with a DE blade is a far more satisfying experience. It's the way of the past.

One of the cars I would love to have, but can't afford. Which engine does it have?

[iainrcz]

Just been in Lidl for work pack up supplies and a couple of beers.

The lass okayed the beers at the till, I paid and walked out.

It was only half way home did I think "that seemed cheap"

Checked the receipt and yup, free beer 😀

Has anyone else noticed how many people seem unable to judge the width of their vehicle , they'll come at you in the centre of a road when there's  bags of room to get two cars through 

I have no words

There's got to be something wrong with that restriction, shirley?

That some cars and vans get through would suggest it’s user error.

[Wack]

It is very tight if you've got no spatial awareness

[Remspoor]

On the FArcebrook page it  says the restriction is 2.1M Cars are around 1.8M wide± then there is not a great deal of leeway.
