    Thanks Joe, my recruiter's have been looking at my pt records, got a message from them last week, saying they have seen much progress. So hopefully things will keep improving until the big day.

    Very nice Clint! Love the fall themed image.

    Going to be a really short break after graduation, Myles.

    You’re loading up on the Aventus clones Myles, keep the comparisons coming. At least I can refer back to them after my NB ‘21 ends :D

    Really nice improvising Andrew. I’m sure it works very similar to a scuttle. Great details, image and thoughts on everything!

    This may be a MOLC lowpoint. I feel sorry for you, Charlie, as you are clearly missing your volunteer work and the positive social interactions that accompany it.
    Please don’t let @jluc see this...he may reconsider putting in his retirement papers at such a vibrant age.

    Gillette 50+ or Older Focus Week
    Saturday January 16, 2021
    Razor: 1952 Gillette Tech
    Blade: Gillette Spoiler (5)
    Brush: Stirling Synthetic
    Soap: Stirling One
    AS 1: Humphrey's Alcoholado Maravilla 70
    AS 2: Stirling One
    Fragrance: Tom Ford Grey Vetiver

    Afternoon Zoom shave with a friend learning to use some stuff I sent him which unbeknownst to him, he joined us on the final day of the Gillette Focus. :D He chose the Voskhod blade this morning with the Gillette 1953 Super Speed Razor. I sent a near new soap/splash set of Stirling Hipster that he whipped up with a Graydog Walnut with a Synthetic knot. He had a Home Alone moment with the Aftershave but he said it's the first time he actually enjoyed his shave. He said he needs to work on the angle and I'm sure pressure but said he could feel the benefits of the soap over his canned goo (my words) and not feeling so dried out already. He says I can tell already I'll never go back from using the soap and brush. So we have someone well on their way. It was killing me to wait till noon to shave with him and I had an AMAZING shave taking off the extra scruff. Haven't missed a day of shaving every 24 hours in over 2 years since I've started keeping track and the extra growth was very annoying even with just 6 hours extra. That's all I got today so hope everyone is enjoying there weekend !!

    GREAT shaves all around Gentlemen! Hope the guys have a fun meet up and avoid the pokey !! Andrew, I've wondered that as well and have heard some talk of getting brush burn from aggressive face lathering. Nice bowl !

    Thank you Charlie. Joe and I continue to have a blast. The only thing that would make it better would be more of the 30DC.

    I need to use it again when not wearing a jacket covering it up all day to be fair. Also I've never smelled the real deal :happy088:

    Thank you Gary. I recall you mentioning your grandad had it when we chatted a few weeks ago. It is in fine shave save the hairline crack in the handle. No big deal.
