Sun August 14th - Sat August 20th

I haven't been around for a while, it was more convenient just to look over the fence from time to time to check out the neighborhood. I am still caught into garage repairs, cleaning the jungle in my front yard to make it look like a garden and so on and so forth.
So, today I decided for:

Thiebaut Astruc a Lille razor, EJ Georgian (modified synthetic) shaving brush, TOBS Sandalwood shaving cream, Floris Edwardian Bouquet.

PS The scales are inspired by some French ones I saw and I'm still experimenting; sorry for the picture but I've just cut a couple of fingers while fitting the finial; the blade is only temporary until I find something more suitable for the scales.

Exquisite, Moutonrouge! :bow

Home from the hills, and definitely in need of a good clean-up! I cannot stay away from the "88" since I received it....First shave off the Gokumyo 20K. Very impressive performance, but needs a bit of fine tuning to improve smoothness... All in all, a good day's work!

I usually don't shave this late at night but: when the girlfriend calls and says I want, noo, I need to come over to see you... Well, a good man does what he needs to do.
