    The Apprentice

    Funnily enough my same six marked for the chop but to be honest I would be happy if Sugar babe canned the whole ******* lot in the first week ! I turned to my wife ( as I wasn't really watching ) and said I think you misheard darling, surely she meant Bijou . Nope, when I saw the logo I had to...

    Well , as the OP, I suppose I better add in my experience so far. I wasn't allowed to open the box originally as it is a present from the good lady wife but when I explained that this thread has tuned into a 12 pager and mostly taken up with the 'issues; ppl are having, she said open it and...

    This thread has almost spawned a second sub thread about XDP . They really seem to be the worst courier service to date , and now have taken the crown from the god awful Yodel who held the title for many years ! On my part when I didn't receive my parcel on friday, I contacted support at XDP...

    Went to bed and it never arrived .no surprise there ! Can’t wait to see the excuses they come up with as a) ring doorbell means I would have him on camera if it was a delivery past the time and b) teenage daughter in the house means someone is slopping around until at least 1am

    Little update on possible group buy on blades from Tuff blades. He said his blades are already heavily discounted so no possibility of group buy which us fair enough as margins must be so tight. But very helpful so when I need a new blade I will get one off him
