It loaded easily and quickly onto my brush and exploded into luxurious goodness as I face lathered...love it!
Thank you sir! I know these can take some time to get but when they arrive the wait is well worth it.
The High Mumpty?!! Why sir, I resemble that! Sweet injector brother, leave it to @Bama Samurai to set you up with that beauty! I think you should start an immediate 30-day Rule right now and prepare for the arrival of the Bunny!
I had forgot about my order from Mike's until I noticed the payment while logged into paypal tonight. Its cleared customs and might be here tomorrow....
Opps, I may have given your title incorrectly. It's supposed to be Numpty? Slip of the finger. Given the current order of the Passing of the Bunny is @spidey9 (enroute) followed by@feeltheburn, @Bama Samurai, @thevez2, @JR Reyes, and @DaltonGang rounding out the Experienced Users. Employing a reverse geographical order to cut down on shipping time puts me as first Casual User. If each user before me takes ten days, and shipping an additional 4 days my guesstimate is for my turn around Take Your Dog To Work Day June 24th. Assuming no changes I have 98 days to complete my current Focus, followed by April, May and a couple weeks in June to train up. No worries? While my current and first time in the group is a Focus, it's all self imposed. I can do as I like because I didn't commit to a Rule. I may break my Focus (again), but I've enjoyed the skill building of just using straight for the last nearly three weeks. For anyone seeking to master your tools, You are invited to join us in The 30 Day Focus/Rule thread.
So I was going to post a pic, but you all know what they look like...I am fresh off my trip to California and my visit to West Coast Shaving...I have to say that place is AMAZING!!!! it was so weird being able to grab all those products and get a in person look, and most importantly a smell with my own nose....I spent about 1.5 hours in there pretty much smelling everything they had (yeah I warned them when I walked in, and they promised it was no big deal)....I ended up getting stirlings-MIA, Mickey Lees-The Drunken Goat, and D.R. Harris-Windsor...also came very close to getting caties bubbles but figured I would just work through these ones a bit and it would be my first order....Saw the whole operation there and have to say they were all AWESOME...will be ordering from them more often and HIGHLY reccomend them.
This past weekend I hit a couple of antique stores and a small flea market that I hadn't been to in several months and found a few razors. A couple of Curvfit razors complete with boxes, blades, and felt pouches. I didn't take a very good picture of them but the lettering is different on them so I'm assuming they're of different vintage. I paid $15 for one of them and $9 for the other. And then I got another champagne Lady Gillette for $11 and a Schick Injector for $4. I've already got examples of both but these were in decent user grade condition and too cheap to pass up.
I love the scent of Brut! I picked up one of the deodorants on sale for $1.50. I will have to check and see if the DT near me has the green bars. I agree that the blue soap is just ok at best.
How do the lady Gillettes shave? I've been seeing those and initially I wanted to get one for the wife, but since she hates the idea of me collecting she won't even consider using one. But I am still curious about them and I'm kind of starting to like the way they look .
Went through a similar situation. Bought two and moved one. Wife prefers to use the Schick M2 smaller head seams less intimidating I guess. Planning on moving other since not in use. Make sure she likes it first before hand would be my advice. They shave well as I have used them on occasion for face shaving. Basically a Super Speed from what I recall with a long handle.
