The sun is shining here too. We get a lot of U.V. here in Australia and wearing sunblock lotion is a must. Unfortunately this is what happens when you leave Jacky alone with the bottle. (you may not be able to see his smile but believe me, its there, he thinks he's hilarious.

Many thanks, Grant!

Wolstenholm Frameback | Semogue | D.R Harris Almond + AK 1869 | Sabon | YSL Kouros

What a shave! I had two days worth of growth, but the Wostenholm never noticed. It was probably too busy trying to figure out where the marzipan came from! The D.R. Harris/Acca Kappa uberlather was a lather explosion that was only matched by the scent that completely enveloped the shaving den. I had so much lather I could not figure out how to use it all! I am totally BBS and ready to face a very busy week!

Prep:Hot Shower
Scuttle: Dirty Bird Custom Double
Brush:TGN Custom Super Premium Silvertip 22mm
Strop:SRD PIV English Bridle
Uberlather:Cade cream, AOS Sandalwood soap, 5 drops glycerin
Razor: Clauss USMC
After shave: AOS Sandalwood ASB
EDT: L'Occitane Vetyver


Result: This Uberlather had a very nice scent and was very elastic. It provided a nice cushion and glide for the Clauss USMC to glide over as it assassinated the whiskers on my face. A 2 pass DFS that was effortless and very comfortable.

Have an excellent Monday gentlemen!

Thanks Grant! How's Chef training coming along? What's your favorite dish so far?

Coming along nicely thanks mate. Just topped the class in a written/practical test last week (sorry to brag but I'm very pleased with myself). Dont know if its the favorite, but the dish I've cooked at home a couple of times is the Eggs Benedict, that Hollandaise sauce takes a little practice.

Location: Coffs Harbour Australia
Prep: Hot Shower/Hot Towel
Strop: Illinois 835
Brush: FS Finest Badger
Soap: Proraso (White)
Razor: OCD Razors (Bob Allman) POC 15/16
Astringent: Thayer's Lavender Witch Hazel
Balm: Nivea Replenishing
A/S: Old spice
Result: I always enjoy a shave with this beautiful razor. Shaving with this is not something that can or should be done on auto-pilot, It feels very different both in the hand and on the face than any other razor I own. Nothing short of BBS. A great shave tonight.
Going on a road trip tomorrow so I've stropped a couple of razors and I'll take the camera and laptop. Hopefully get a post done from Sydney tomorrow night.

Have a great day gentlemen
