Couldn't sleep, we are having a streak of 90 to 100 degree F weather. Anything over 80 and I'm incapacitated. Shave well friends, Goodnight.

Ditto, but only with the humidity we get here and this early into spring and it was pretty damn bad at 32C with humidity on top of it. the saving grace was that when I was home there was a good sea breeze. I open up two doors and create a mini jet-stream of cool air when I can.

MrPeters, That brush looks like a good one. The boar bristles might feel a bit stiff and harsh for a bit, but they will break in nicely after a few uses. I'm a bit of Semogue fan myself, but I don't own one yet. I've tried a couple out (belong to a couple of mates of mine) and I reckoned they were just the ducks guts, perfedd hwyaid if you like!

Haven't ordered shaving soap , im assuming it would be a wise move?Wasnt sure of the differences beteeen soap and cream.

i have a semogue 1305. they're not harsh or scritchy on face at all, just plenty of backbone. i think people who use cutthroats prefer soap as it has more glide or slippier i cannot find the right word at the moment. i still use both. pm me your address and i will send you some soap Damon

Thank you so much!
