Welcome! Have you and/or your son been to any competitions?

 

[Papa Lazarou]

We ere hoping to go the the next uk competition, but not sure when that will be regarding all this covid problem. Were waiting for a custom SCS cube to arrive from the USA, which will hopefully shave a little off his 11.3 personal best....

I love the custom cubes from SCS! Recently received my PVC coated gan x and it’s contested to become my main again.

Please don’t bump threads, this post is several months old

Sorry, it appeared in similar threads at the bottom, the website wants me to take an interest in it. does it matter how old it is? I've done no harm in asking the poster a simple question surely?

Edit: Anyway, it wont happen again.

Well the user was last seen in July so...
Sometimes bumping is fine, sometimes not, it’s just a bit weird when someone turns up to a conversation several months later and asks a question
Anyway no harm done
