Anyway, are we still a go for Tuesday? I need a nice ride to relax me.

LOL! I know the feeling. Yes were still on for tuesday.

Happy 4th of July

Monday 4th July:

C.V. Heljestrand faux frameback
Simpson Duke 3 in Best (custom 50mm loft)
Speick shave cream
Chanel Allure Homme Edition Blanche after shave balm



Very nice again, this thing gets better and better, I thoroughly enjoy straight shaving now. I am also thankful to all of you here (as well in other forums of course) for their contributions, a lot learned and without all that things would certainly be different.

Today I attempted a second pass, XTG, with great success. Splendid!

Happy 4th of July to all our fellow members from the U.S.

Shortly after dinner my 1 year old son came wandering over to me with my Col. Conk Bay Rum in his hand which he had swiped from one of my drawers, but, I did think he made a good selection so I decided to make an Uber with it. The lather was fantastic, so much thick creamy lather I looked like Santa Clause on all 3 passes.
A great BBS for me.

Enjoy the fourth of July all you boys in the U.S.
