  1. Cool info.

    I’ve noticed in recent years that some municipalities are ‘pretreating’ roads with a liquid they spray on. And it seems to kinda stick.

    Can you enlighten me on what it might be made of?

  2. Had my heart set on the Muhle but I followed my gut instinct and pulled the plug. No regrets . I will see what tomorrow brings for the piccolo.

    I’ve shoveled both. One happens year round.

  9. They used it here for awhile but have stopped. Could be due to added costs but it seemed to work well.

    Greetings,

    A near Turkish themed Thursday shave..

    It's been a while since i last used the Lord L125 razor, a lightweight middle aggression razor which was kindly passed on to me each time i normally use my Schmidt R10 Handle to give the razor more heft, however with either handle the performance and shaving results from this razor have been satisfactory. Paired together with the Derby Premium blade on it's 4th & last outing made a wonderful smooth duo.
    A enjoyable 3 pass + pick ups close comfortable shave with no errors to report...Finishing the shave off with a small dollop of Aloe Vera Gel.

    My face is feeling super smooth & smelling divine.;)

    Keep safe, and enjoy your day ladies & gentlemen.:cool:

  17. Nice shave Barry. Bacteria killing face lather for the win !

  18. Thanks, Dave..The Bacteria killing face frankensoap is my own creation which lathers up wonderfully. The Arko Shave stick + Dettol Original Anti Bacterial Soap dominate the fragrance of the soap, but the frankensoap doesn't dissipate or strip the natural oils from my skin leaving a good post shave feel.:cool:
