Fantastic shave, Joseph! It's amazing how we didn't care for Stirling Glastonbury, but now it has grown on both of us. I have a theory as to why this happened. I believe that the fragrance oils are not evenly distributed throughout the soap so that the scent strength changes as you penetrate different layers.
Glad the shave finally worked out! ‘Insolent youth’ evolves into sarcastic young adults. I still remember my oldest son who turned 49 this year telling me when he was in college that at 16 he was convinced I was dumb as a stump, but was amazed at how my IQ seemed to increase as he grew older.
Thanks, Jason! Yes, after using the same soap for 30 consecutive shaves, I was looking forward to using Stirling Christmas Eve SS and AS. I have 2 more new soaps to try before the end of the month and they are Stirling's Frankincense and Myrrh as well as Stirling's Spice.
Great B&W image Daniel! Neat setup and shave. Wowzers to the max Jim. I thought I had seen the shiniest, drippiest chrome in an image (yours!). This one rocks! Great colors too, and yeah, nice shave! Awesome MITAs family photo Terry! Great MMOC shave! What? No recycled image? Great setup and shave with the new software Joe! Very cool Jeff! Nice details, setup and shave! Oooh....I'm liking that image Gary! Menthol Monday goodness!
I wasn't impressed with Frank N. Cents, but Spice is coming "around the bend" for use soon(maybe a couple weeks).
I am sure you would, Jeff! Just as an aside, I always keep my adjustable safeties at the most aggressive settings.
