    Greetings,

    A relaxing Sunday morning shave...A brief update after having my 2nd Covid-19 vaccine yesterday afternoon...After waiting in sheer trepidation of my hatred of needles sweating like a "glass blowers arse" for my number to be called out...After my formalities had been recorded with the wonderful nurses i relaxed my arm to be jabbed, i told the nurse 'Jane' i was ready for her to commence. She told me she had done me...I honest didn't feel any pain what so ever...What a big girl's blouse i'am at times....Adding to that, this morning when i woke up and had visions of me looking like a Neanderthal.

    Fortunately up to now i have no adverse affects, not even the stiff arm like i had or flu like symptoms i had with my first vaccine...Anyway, back to the shave...

    I haven't used the clubman Pinaud soap for a while and forgot how much a great in-expensive soap this is.. This is almost 'croap-like' soap it doesn't need blooming before mixing providing a slick protective lather, in no time, i like the scent too, it's not over powering, and the post shave feel is incredibly good. What more can I say? apart from it's a great shaving soap...

    Finishing the shave off a with a small dollop of L'0REAL ~ Barber Club Reinforcing ASB.

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

    Stay safe, and enjoy your Sunday and the rest of the bank holiday ladies & gentlemen.:cool:

    I'm still trying to wake up, but that didn't stop me from having an excellent shave: the Scottish cream's performance is incredible, and the German slant is magnificent.

    Large Storm kept me company the entire time I was in the bathroom.
    Her voice I mean, otherwise I'd still be upstairs!
