4/5 Shave
Was a really nice and relaxing shave. First time with the Wilkinson. Dried a bit on my face and the razor started pulling. I didnt realize what was happening until I looked at my lip area and noticed the shave soap had caked. Added some more hot water and bam...all was fixed. No nicks what so ever. Almost no skin irritation. Still have two spots on my neck that are a bit rough to the touch but not really noticable looking at it. I was really happy with the Wilkinson soap, it had a great scent.

CHEERS!!!

No Shave Until Sunday

It is time again for our annual camping trip. The trip includes all the dads and the kids from our neighborhood and the wives stay home. The dads build a campfire and the kids make smores then they go to bed in their tents and then the dads get obliterated and complain about their wives.

The wives do the same thing but without the kids and the smores.
