    G'day,

    I'm all for giving up the cut throat razor and going hairy, the benefits are:

    • no cut ear lopes or lips (the other cuts don't matter as they don't bleed so much);
    • acts as a collection device for food scraps for later consumption;
    • saves money;
    • saves water, thus meaning I must be doing my bit for greenhouse effect (maybe that's a long bow to draw);
    • no more 5 0'clock shadows even straight after I shave (why can't I look like every other bloke with a smooth face and no shadow?)
    • I can spend more time doing more important stuff; and
    • my little daughter loves rubbing her hand on my stubble;

    But there's always a but:
    • SWMBO won't give me any kisses because it scratches her face
    • it'd get pretty hot and itchy in Summer (if we ever get Summer down here in Antartica)

    So what's a blke to do?

    (none of this metrosexual carp designer stubble - what a joke that is! :mad: )
    I make things, I just take a long time.

    That is the first sign it's time to flush the sawdust and woodchips out.
    I may be weird, but I'm saving up to become eccentric.

    Funny really, because I'm not much of an electron burner in the shed, but I HATE wet razors - give me a little buzzer anytime
