Thanks Perry. It's a shared office with my Bride, so she oversaw the layout. I kept most of my engineering books, and I have some books gifted to me by my Father-in-Law and Uncle. I finally got them organized in one place. We finished an extra corner of the basement. Off to one side, my Bride has her own desk, and I have room for my exercise bike, a desktop computer, flat screen TV, and a music stand for my guitar. Also have a storage closet and thankfully, a window. This was my splurge.
Gotta go to work today, even though I'm not immune to weekend working, it's been a while. Saturday's straights n slants is working out great. Used the shavette with a silver blue, 2 passes was great. The grand kids were around so I used the DE for the chin area. 3rd pass with the slant and I'm ready. The head shave with the Parker slant was as normal great, but the Nacets are not as sharp as Feathers. Used a different brush this morning, one I cleaned the other night. Tobac is a soap that requires a little more work to make good lather. I don't know what brand or type of brush this is, but Tobac loves it. The amount of lather that blew up with this brush was quite nice. This brush will be on the hit parade. So off to get rid of an old vehicle, then to work. To all Enjoy tp Gosh I wrote the earlier but forgot to hit post.... Well..... tp
Looking great Charlie. No Charlie. I decided to just pick up some La Toja or LEA shave sticks and creams if I seem them in a local store for a great price. I don't even need to spend anything on shave soaps or creams.
Thanks Clint. I totally understand on the shave soap. I have plenty myself. I haven't used LEA, but La Toja makes a fantastic shave stick. I bet you can pick them up for cheap in the pharmacies or grocery stores. I hope you and Swati have a wonderful time and a safe trip. I can't wait to see photos and hear about it. Although my sister didn't have any trouble while she was there, I've heard that Barcelona is known for pickpockets. Take precautions.
Great minds, Gary. Have all those critical items just outside the office along with a bathroom and a recliner.
Thank you Charlie. Certain places like Las Ramblas were crawling with pickpockets the last time we were in Barcelona with the girls. We saw the same thing in Rome and Nice. I just keep a few Euros in my front pocket and everything important in a money belt.
Great shave, Blair! The Fili is a razor that I hope to have in my collection one day. I lost 2 bids on EBay at the last second. They were in excellent condition and shave ready at a great price. Needless to say, I was upset. The Fili's are very hard to get for a fair and reasonable price on EBay.
It's a great movie indeed. One of my favorites and carries a very serious message in a very dark comedic way.
