I have only just discovered how to start an SRP:UK social group, and have therefore done so. Feel free to join at Straight Razor Place Forums - SRP:UK

You may recall that OLD_SCHOOL was proposing a rental plan (really a trial period) for one of his natural Japanese hones. He originally limited it to the US only. Eventually the idea just died. I griped to him that the original offer was too restrictive and that, if he opened it up, there might be more interest. Well, OLD_SCHOOL says here that he will make the offer again if there are ten people in the UK/Europe who are interested. I'm interested and I'm hoping that others are, too. I'm posting this here because I was worried that people in the UK/Europe would assume it wasn't for them. If you're interested, please go to the above thread and say so.

Don't think this is the right thread for this but I will take a look - I'm interested in bringing products to the UK.

Hey steve, I think you better take plenty of the those coticule bouts if your going to knock them out for 50 quid !! That is an exceptionally good price.
Wish I could come

ATTENTION: WILL ALL THOSE ON THE GUEST LIST PM ME GIVING ME AN EMAIL ADDRESS PLEASE SO THAT I CAN SEND YOU THE PROGRAMME FOR THE EVENT.
SRP doesnt allow word documents to be posted and I dont want the programme to be available for just anyone to download.
Many thanks.
Sandy

Stephen it may be beneficial to somehow have a buffet lunch which we could all eat in the first half hour or something. Perhaps Mortun would be kind enough to help us find a place that could provide that service?

Just a thought, Sidney.
Were you not going to put a note on the programme, in case any of us were to be stopped by the rozzers?

What I sent to you was a programme. Not the invite. I'll include the invite when Stephen, Steve and tony get back to me and when I get more than 4 email addresses. My inbox has been cleared.
