She is going to love the new knee. Really! The rehab is just very hard. Your going to have to be a good coach. Is she a runner? Good luck and well wishes for a speedy recovery.

Planned shave for Wednesday morning: Neutrogena Men Facial Wash Large Horsehair Barbershop Super Speed/SuperMax Blue day 3 Dettol Cool SC Lubriderm Unscented Moisturizer Proraso Green AS Dolce & Gabbana EdT As promised, in return for using a Stirling Glacial soap today I'm going to use a very nice cream from India tomorrow morning. This Dettol Cool should actually be called Dettol Cold because that's exactly what it is. It has a nice scent, albeit a little medicinal and the lather is very rich as well as easy to whip up. The menthol effect is quite strong, and the skincare is pretty good. The Proraso Green aftershave is so cooling and nice - it's one of my favourites. It'll be hard to beat the quality of the shave I had this morning. So, tell me - because I'm keeping my promise, aren't I a good boy?

I was a little nervous about the open comb of the razor and the quality of the blade but it all came through very nicely and with little to no irritation.[/URL][/IMG]
Not at all close! When I got this and used it the first time instead of smelling Old Spice, I thought I was smelling Old Shea Stadium because there was such a strong Shea Butter smell. You note the word "Modified." I had to take about 2 oz. of an Old Spice equivalent aftershave, dig out all the soap and mix the aftershave and the soap back in the container. Left it sealed for two weeks and then used it again and the aftershave finally made it smell like Old Spice. The lather and performance were and is still great, but do not expect anything but Old Shea Stadium if you use this as purchased.
