    I had a little extra time this morning, so I was able to squeeze in a quick SR shave with my Kiebitz. 2 passes and 15 minutes later I had a nice DFS!

    Th glacial lemon chill soap and the menthol aftershave sure was refreshing on this hot summer morning!

    You guys take such great pictures that every time I want to post my pictures I feel embarrassed. Is it a requirement that all SR shavers take photography classes before venturing out into SR shaving? Do we have a forum for that at TSD? ;)

    All mine are from my Motorola phone. Add a little punch, maybe crop a little, add a border, then post to the forum.

    Not bad at all today. I didn't get as smooth as I'd have liked but overall a passable shave. The unknown soap I got yesterday lathered up decent. Smooth, didn't dissipate, no scent....
