Thank you Gary?
(How's been you palindrome day?)

This morning's shave didn't begin that well. In the second day of my Stoylin Sandpiper trifecta, I didn't load as well as I've been doing lately. I had the Stoylin li'l brudder, thus it was an all-Stoylin shave. (Well, except for the razor). I did some extra loading for the first one, and a small bit the second one(pass). The shave actually ended up well, with no cuts and all noticeable whiskers gone, but I can do better, hopefully tomorrow. Rather Excellent.

I never knew there was a gold version!
Is it original or did you get it gold plated?

In today's beautiful photo you can see a dwarf, a Berkeley that I hardly ever use, despite its efficiency, but, having big hands and big face, I prefer other brushes.
But, for a small bowl, it's perfect.

Getting over a bout of f the flue. Slept most of the weekend. It was great to get a good picture and have a great shave. First time using the Grooming Dept soap. A very generous gift from Guy @ram57. I really liked this soap, so I'll probably use it most of February. Have a great day.
