Looks like you're faring better than I am after the Turkey day

very good photography. Thanks for sharing, Ecosse.

Getting ready for tomorrow. Long day with the family but looking forward to the game.

Hot shower as always.
Warm oil
Dirty bird Scuttle
Castle Forbes Cream
Dubl Duck Pearlduck Full Hollow
SRD Paddle Strop, 75 leather
AOS Aluminum
Pinaud Bay Rum
Vaseline for men.

As always the Castle Forbes provided a really rich lather and the DD sheared the whiskers with true efficiency. I really liked the shave this evening with the DD and Castle Forbes. They are like milk and cookies, hey just go together well.

Tomorrow we hit the Penn State Vs Michigan State game at State College. Looking forward to the game, not the drive. We should have left today and stayed at the cabin, but it did not happen.

Enjoy the weekend!!!

What a wonderful shave!

I apologize for not being able to comment on all of the great shaves today. But let me just say THANKS you guys are amazing!

Strop: SRD Premium IV English Bridle
Scuttle: SRD
Cream: Da Bomb Custom Bay & Vetiver
Razor: Claus
After shave: Al's Bay & Vetiver ASB

Result: Sorry for the "unpolished" picture. I waited to do today's shave as I was expecting a special delivery from Alraz. This custom scent of bay & vetiver is amazing. The Claus performed admirably and left me feeling uber-clean. 2nd Thanksgiving with my side of the family tomorrow...now where did I put my stretchy pants...

Have a great weekend gentlemen, you've earned it!
