England in the European Finals tonight, biggest game since '66!
Have a great week gentlemen :chapeau
I don't have much time for modern football, it's a business where money conquers all, players are grossly overpaid and are bad rolemodels but hell when we've had such a rubbish time this last year and a half it gives us something to get behind as a nation and be proud to be English (something that's frowned upon in most cases)
I don't know who frowns on the English, I may not live there anymore but I'm English and always will be, PROUD OF IT!:soapbox:
There are European countries that don't like our football fans, but for those that think we are aggressive, consider this.
Pit bulls are illegal in a lot of countries, why? because they are bred to be aggressive.
The Brits are a product of every aggressive conquering race that set foot on our shores, right back to the vikings.
The British may be aggressive compared to other countries but we were bred for it.
I do have one observation though. I drove in England for over 20 years, I have driven in Canada for about 18 years and the English are much more polite on the road.

Coupled with the SWMBO Favorite Tabac line up, I am off to an outstanding start to the day.

Super shave this early morning.
A few months ago, Scott (from Captains Choice), contacted me to give my opinion on a new “fougere” scent profile he was working on.
He sent me a few unmarked sample vials in a “blind test” to get my opinion on the different scents.
I believe it eventually became his new “Land Ho” scent.
Anyhoo, I pulled-out the nearly 200-year old Wade & Butcher I restored, and paired it with everything unscented. (Unscented soap, and unscented balm). And then I finished with one of the fougere sample splashes he sent me.
Super slick soap, crazy nice balm, and a fantastic fougere scent.
Wifey loved it!

Another W&B (hollow) ~7/8ths with some new shoes, courtesy of Glen Mercurio. The coticule edge on this leaves behind a velvet smooth face to remind you of what Sheffield steel can do. This old blade has pitting which ends up working out as pretty good jimps on the shank.
This shaver made it back to me at the same time that Grecian Horse made it my way.

Hello,
If you ever find yourself climbing the cliffs of insanity you may find yourself confronted by a Spaniard.
The dual begins with the refreshing scent of lavender, lemon, coriander and sea air with complementary notes of orange blossoms neroli and verdant greens, then cedar and patchouli finish the battle.
