    My head is spinning from the new site. Money being spent where none is needed? Why the upgrade?

    I'm done with this site.. ;)

    Well the sun is shining, I am a hermit superstar and nothing reminds me of better times like the smell of peaches! Southern Witchcrafts Peach is a very lovely peach scent and by no means sweet; that really nice earthy peach smell. They make several other mixed scent accords but this single peach goody is very nice indeed.

    Today’s razor the wonderful 1951 Black Tip SS. I really enjoyed the Tech with a Feather so why not the Black Tip with a Kai. I am not suggesting this razor is mild because this particular one isn’t but I have heard some say it is. This is the aluminum handle version. Great razor period.

    Lovely three pass shave. Smooth as silk! I love this Black Tip beasty and I will endeavour to get it into rotation more often. Next up will be the Blue Tip! Stay safe folks!
