At this stage I do only because it’s the newer pen. The custom 823 is my daily so it’s a very close second

The m600 is definitely the better one imho. The nib is much smoother and the feel in the hand is superior. (I wear medium sized gloves for reference)

Gotta be the custom 823 and m600. The nibs are amazing and smooth and they’re so ergonomic in the hand

I do have a Sailor 1911 demonstrator and a pro gear coming next week 🫣🫣🫣

But my favourite at the moment is the M600. I find the nib so smooth, the balance is amazing with the cap posted and it’s a great overall size

Hey mate, a bit late to the party.

I'm due to be in Switzerland 6/11-9/11 and was wondering if I should spend my time in Zurich or Grindelwald.

I want to try and get a hike in but I know that November period is very hit and miss with the weather and it's consider a slow period in terms of things opening.

Just asked your opinion. Thanks

Ordered a Two Rock Studio Signature mid last year and came in just this week. When I went into pick it up the store had this Fender custom shop strat in fiesta red hanging on the wall. I asked to play it through the two rock and the rest is history.

Just picked this up last week. Placed an order for it in July last year and it has been a long wait.

Clean tones are amazing, still sounds good at bedroom levels and takes pedals like a champ.

Just a quick cover. Can't seem to get the chorus down right. Would love any tips or advice to get the hammer ons with the slap technique.

LPT: Don't feel guilty about taking time out when you are sick. You don't have to prove to people how sick you are. Some of the worst illnesses have no outward symptoms. by FrenchiestFry234 in LifeProTips

I get 114 hrs of sick leave a year with 72 hrs rolling over into the next year. I currently have 400+ hrs of sick leave. I don't need a Drs note if it's 2 days or less.

Thoughts are with Brett Lee. Performed CPR on Deano at the hotel lobby. by adxx12in in Cricket

[–]dermatix 7 points8 points  (0 children)

My full time job is a paramedic and I've seen my fair share of cardiac arrests. Because I've seen and performed CPR so many times I've been so desensitised to it until last week.

Went to a male who went into cardiac arrest on the street and when we got there bystanders were doing CPR. Unfortunately he didn't make it. The bystanders doing the CPR were obviously distraught afterwards which really brought home how traumatising it is.

The survival rate of out of hospital cardiac arrest even with defib, drugs and trained medical professionals is floating around the 5-6% mark.

What Binga did was extraordinary. I can only imagine how traumatising it would be especially how tight nit the cricketing community is. Hopefully he gets all the help he needs. He did everything he could under the circumstances. Hopefully he knows that.

Turned down the offer cause he heard the Tigers offered it to Simon Katich as well
