I couldn't do that. I wouldn't want B&B to get in copyright trouble

[celestino]

Thanks, celestino, and a magnificent pic today from yourself! Following this knot tying is extremely interesting, my friend Do you have a knot I could use for nervous patients?

* David, i was going to suggest the "hangman's noose", but i don't think that would be appropriate. Hee hee.

[celestino]

* Soren, are you an avid racer or just a fan like David? Nice picture. You and Andi can get together with your toy cars. Hee hee.
Great photo!

Soren, an incredible pic!!!!
I love Ferrari, I love Italy, I love the F1.... and I love THIS pic!!!!
Just fantastic!

To be honest David I'm quite surprised by the performance of the razor, I've restored and owned quite a few Taylors 1000 razors and although good shavers this one is a step up, if you have a chance of getting hold of one I would strongly advise it.

Jamie.

Jamie, knowing the performance of the Japanese Westerns says a lot about that blade, my friend. Very nicely arranged pic!

Great photo!

I am a fan, and have been a Ferrari tifosi since the late 70's.
The only thing I "race" is my motorbike - which is Italian too

I am impressed, Soren. Now let's see the real one parked outside

Unfortunately the Danish taxes prohibit a simple labourer like me to have anything else but an old Fiat - but at least it is within the same company
And just FYI; we pay 205% in taxes for a new car, so if the price tag is 10,000 from the car factory, we have to pay 30,500 for the car - and that is without licence plate, that's extra

Soren, an incredible pic!!!!

Thank you

What's not to love about Italy; Ferrari, Ducati, Monica Bellucci and pizza (and not necessarily in that order )

OMG!!!! And we think we are being ripped off here in the UK.

Mark, a wonderful pic, but with a hobby I am totally ignorant about, I'm afraid. Unfortunately, my handwriting is so atrocious that those pens would have an injustice done to them, was I to try one.

David, I'm convinced that writng with a fountain pen makes everyone's writing better since it forces you to slow down, concentrate and enjoy the experience. You must come down and visit us in The Nib. We have lots of people there who will be glad to get you fixed up with one!

[celestino]

* David, i have to agree with Mark. Once you try a fountain pen, it forces you to slow down and concentrate (meditate) on what you are doing. It is really a great art form once you start with it and want to improve your calligraphy. You should be able to pick up some very inexpensive pens for under $25.

* Bill, great double shot! i see you are enjoying your new toy and hobby! Hee hee.

* Keith, holy cow! Is that your sketch? Gorgeous picture! i see you redefining the word "dross". Hee hee.

* Matt, beautiful colours as usual and you have great taste in music, my friend!

* David, another great one!

* Mark, very nice and i love the pens!

* J.B. + Mark, i have climbed, but not rocks. Trees. i used to help out with an environmental group, many, many years ago.

Great shots, everyone!

Thank you, Gentlemen.

[UngerWoo]

WOW, what great pic's, hobbies and shaves, Gentlemen!!!!!
I really like it!!!

Thank you, Andi.

Love the colours in this pic, Matt. My taste in music is quite diverse too.

Thanks, David.
