2025 Shave Purchase Sabbatical - The Battlestar Galactica Year

[Balin]

I have a special category called playing from home, Sam. So unless you bought stuff in the first two months…

And it is nice to see someone with a similar track record s mine! Mine is way shorter of course and so far only contains failures!

You aren't the only one!!

2025 will be our year .

Dear Commander @Guido75:

My four week France/England expedition is complete. We commence our trek home beginning tomorrow, and we will arrive home in Victoria BC Canada on Friday afternoon, 7th March. A small number of shaving ”temptations” from Paris and London are coming home with me, souvenirs that I will enjoy immensely.

I can assure you that Restraint for the remainder of 2025 shall not be a problem.

Humbly, I request you overlook these four weeks as an aberration. My lack of restraint occurred on two days only: February 7th (Paris - previously posted) and March 3rd (London - see post in March GRUME). 363/365, although not 100%, is a pretty good average (99.45%)!

Thank you for your consideration.

And you are leaving us hanging as to what it was?!

Enjoy your gift!

Dave the main goal is to curb our acquisition reflexes. If you want to continue there are several options, like the monthly GRUME, but I am also very supportive of people wanting to tag along in a 364/365 or in your case a 363/365 manner.

Thank you sir. I shall humbly tag along here @ 363/365. Monthly GRUME will recommence in April.

“Acquisition reflexes”…..I shall leave these behind on this side of the Atlantic.

Still on board.

Make it a great day!
