    WSP Rustic Mahogany today. 20 seconds to load the Knotsinyourhead/Whipped Dog Silvertip brush. Easy, thick, slick, lather. Gillette “Spoiler” SS in the Gillette NEW Long Comb. Excellent smooth, close, shave. I finished with Country Club Southern Oud aftershave.

  7. Friday morning:

    Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster
    Super Speed/Derby day 7
    Bundubeard Rooibos SS
    Bull Dog Moisturizer
    Groom AS Splash
    Bleu de Chanel EdP

    No menthol today because the temperature outside is -21C. The Derby blade is now retired after a week of faithful service - in fact I was really surprised at how well it performed today. Jaco’s Rooibos soap is a South African treasure - the scent is herbal and lovely, the lather is unbelievably thick, rich, slick and protective with such fantastic skincare. The Bull Dog moisturizer felt so good on my face, and to top it off the Groom aftershave gave me its nice old school scent which is mild enough not to disrupt the beautiful fragrance of the Bleu de Chanel. Three passes did the job for me - a super duper BBS shave!

    Wishing you all a great weekend![​IMG]

    Friday's Shave
    zcws.jpg

    Cold Water Rinse
    Vintage Life's Morning TOST
    Oscar11 synthetic
    Russian ShaDE
    Personna Half DE
    CWS
    PSC Caffeinated After Shave Balm

    The Vintage Life's Morning TOST Shave Soap face-lathered well with the Oscar11 synthetic brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Russian ShaDE razor with a Personna Half DE blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with PSC Caffeinated After Shave Balm. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    Well, at least the shave was fine!

    Last night some scumbag threw what had to be a cue ball into my kitchen picture window. I heard something but I was in a back room with the TV on. Sounded like a drinking glass falling into a sink. Looked around, went to bed. After a shave & shower, upon opening the blinds....this! Luckily it's the storm window and not the inside glass. Big 4' X 4' frame. Sucks.

  17. Wow! Many years ago, I came home from a PTA meeting to find that our neighbor had kicked a football through our living room picture window. That was an accident. I hope that was not a malicious act.
  18. Thanks Gary.
