Wikipedia said:In 1965 Gillette introduced the Techmatic razor which utilized a cartridge with a steel strip that could be wound forward to expose a fresh section of new blade.

Father Ted said:Dad (now departed of this mortal coil) was very angry that the TSR-2 was binned, as were a lot of the engineers who worked on it.
He used to speak highly of the technological advances of the plane, was present when it made its maiden flight and was instrumental in the design of the hydraulics (also worked on the Lightning and the Jaguar and Tornado - and to a lesser extent the EAP before he retired - his speciality was hydraulics).
Prior to BAC he worked for Sharps Commercials (Bond Minicar anyone?) and was a medic in the army, though his first love always was engineering.
