    I got up at 4:45am because of an early flight. After not shaving for a couple of days, I pulled out a known performer to wipe the whiskers off. It was a nice shave

    Thank you, Perry! I can see the bottom of the tin on this puck. The scent has grown on me quite a bit, but I still don't know that I will replace it.

    Sometimes we can take kids into the playroom. It is sound proof and loaded with toys on the shelves. We pull toys off the shelves, play with them for about a minute each, and then go back for more. The room is sound-proof so that they can make all the noise they want. I encourage noise and make some myself. :) Then there's the cleanup before we head back to their room. I just broke a sweat thinking about it. It's good fun. Kids need to be kids wherever they are. And I need the exercise. I'm there mainly to help them with the toys, make sure nobody gets hurt, and protect any Otters that might be passing through. :)

    Thanks Terry!
    The scent may have dissipated in the samples a little. I had the Sandpiper on hand for probably over a year. I can tell you Sandpiper is a medium strong scent off the Puck. The Sandalwood sample was probably only six months old.
    Nice!!
    Mmmm, Orange Chill!
    Thank you, Patrick!
    Great shave Nirav!
    Stay warm, John!
    Cool frenkenrazor Gary!

    Beautiful new brush, Jim! Love the Dart!
    That's a big ole badger knot! Great shave Jim!
    Stay safe and warm, Dale! And when you get back tell me about the Baby Pro knot!
    Stunning shot, Clint!
    I hope you get those errands done and have a restful rest of the day, Charlie!

    Thank you Clint.

    Great combination Perry.

    Nice pic. The cafe au lait sounds like a winner.

    Cool pic Jim. Great shave.

    40 cm snow coming here tomorrow. Wooooo
    Lovely pic Clint.

    Nice shave Joseph.

    When you acquire alot of brushes , you eventually lose track.

    Nice pic Brian. You sure are putting on the miles . Safe travels.

    Ahhhh. The ring of death strikes . Great shave

    Thats a lot lot lot of Clubman Aaron.

    Opened a sample pack of Stirling Sandpiper body lotion that was sent to me . She loves the smell and tried to order the shave soap but they wont ship to Canada. Sent them an email and just waiting on reply. What a shame cause they could have had many of my hard earned dollars by now .

    EDRIO#20 Schick E2
    Personna
    Yaqi Red Marble Tuxedo (28mm, Destroyer Class)
    Cella of Hagen Street :sick013:
    Stirling Noir PSB

    Today's shave marks the end of the Frankensoap that consisted of an ounce of Van der Hagen Deluxe, half an ounce of Cella and half an ounce of Jeeves Apothecary. With that it also means that I have finally finished off the soap that got me started wet shaving three years ago(the VdH). The Schick E2 is a beast of a razor that demands a light touch and riding the cap. The resulting shave however is a flawless, irritation free, BBS shave. Stirling Noir PSB has me smelling good and my skin smooth and hydrated. Have a great day my friends!
