It really is, I have been fortunate enough to borrow one from a generous TSR member and used it for seven days and it is a joy to use and the fit and finish is second to none, even the lined mahogany box it is presented in is a joy to behold!Another razor I have just Googled

Yesterday I have a failure with razor handle. Something similar happened today but I managed to recover. I was making brush for @LeeMaz and while I was turning bottom part imperfection in material caused catch which then caused handle to fly of the lathe. I took a deep breath and went few steps back to make it again.

Not drowning at a swimming lesson today, was a positive.
Been able to swim since I was kid, but not used the front crawl for decades. Nipped over the border to Halifax for a 121 lesson, and bloody loved it. Decided to have a few sessions to get back into swimming and get back to front crawl and back stroke. Probably wont be able to walk tomorrow

Not sure if this is good news or bad news. My knee problem is not a torn meniscus, so no operation needed, yay! The bummer is it's osteoarthritis, bah.

Sorry to hear this - I have had the same diagnosis. Had a steroid injection 6 weeks ago. One of the reasons I posted about swimming above. Physio advised front crawl swimming.
I hope you find ways of managing the aches and pains.

I've not been swimming for ages, will bear that in mind, maybe I should. I can swim OK, although most I ever did was 100 lengths of 25m pool, mostly breaststroke with some crawl thrown in to break up the monotony. I would be gassed out after 5 x 25m now, I'm so out of practice. Good luck with yours!

Cycling is a good exercise as well. I can't walk fast or far with arthritis in my knees and ankles, but cycling is a smooth and relatively pain free experience.

Yep, been meaning to get my bicycles back on the road. Although it's not a barrel of laughs on the roads round here. A good reason for me to dust them off, pump up the tyres etc. Might be a bit more than that though, not ridden for a few years.

At least it's not rheumatoid arthritis.
