Jeff

Been there done that. More years than I want to remember ago. (I was in Junior High School, they gave me a physical so I could be on the swimming team)

Mein Freund das ist so lieb - vielen Dank!

This darn thing posted before I could finish. You are in all of our thoughts and prayers today.
Best of luck my friend.

does that mean a different shave combo each day?

 

Muhle R89 with Polsilver SI blade
Speick stick and AS
TGN finest
Great shave and for me Polsilver SI>Gillette 7 O'Clock black although I could live with either

 

Basically it's the same except I decided to start using up a lot of my stash.
the rest of the week will probably be no shave days until we get back, in the RV. Or at least i will not be posting the rest of the week.
