    I had a little sleep of almost 12 hours! Nice…

    Luckily it's not New Year's Eve, so the neighbors did not detonate firecrackers in a Po valley remake of Apocalypse Now interrupting the old man's sleep!

    And I hope they (and not only they) behave in a more socially acceptable way, and that they stop throwing their garbage randomly because, afterwards, I find it all on television!

    The Ghost of Christmas Present must be upset with me for some reason and this morning there is a Saharan sun: can one be more mean?

    All this following of considerations has not prevented me from having a very pleasant shave whose protagonists I have badly photographed and well posted here below ...

    Williams Wednesday's Shave
    zcws.jpg

    Cold Water Rinse
    Williams Mug Shave Soap
    Jayaruh #199
    Schick M2 Adjustable
    Schick Proline
    CWR
    Cella Balsamo Dopobarba

    My prep was just a cold water rinse. The Williams Mug Shave Soap face lathered well with Jayaruh #199 Brush. I did two passes and a cleanup with the Schick M2 Adjustable razor with a Schick Proline blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Cella Balsamo Dopobarba. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    Merry Christmas my dear friends!

    Wednesday morning:

    Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster
    Super Speed/new Derby
    Vintage Tryphon Mentolo SS
    Prep ASB
    Reef Point Fougere Santal AS Splash
    Music: Hristougenna Protougenna

    These Derby blades are very good but somehow I think that I still prefer the Minoras, and definitely the Astra Greens. I have this antique Mentolo soap from Tryphon Enterprises for at least fifteen years and it still performs like a champ - a little blooming brought out that lovely minty scent, it gave me fantastic lather that was rich as well as super slick with a good, strong menthol punch and very good postshave care. The Prep added its own special cooling, soothing attention, and the Fougere Santal aftershave from Reef Point not only smells beautiful, it’s icy cold. Two passes left me as smooth as a glass table top!

    Today’s video is a nice Greek Christmas kalanta. (carol)
