Jamie.
Super smooth shave one pass with minor touch up, really getting to grips with this razor and very much enjoying using it, so much so that I may get myself the Feather AC-RG non folding version.

Feather AC RG in black Midnight Wood scales with Feather ProGuard blade
Semogue 2000 boar hair brush
Nanny's French Lavender soap
Truefitt & Hill 1805 after shave balm
Very cushiony and slick, Sharon's hard soap assisted for a very close shave. The use of the ProGuard blade made huge difference this time (been using a 'Light' Feather blade so far this month).
Roughly a week to go till I leave this place, mixed feelings, a valuable experience however it has indeed been two very hard years. Hopefully all the lessons learned will pay dividends from 2012 onwards.

Difficult to talk about the fragrance, it is often a subjective things. It is a fact that Geo F Trumper GFT is a very good quality shaving cream, the scent of the gft is relatively moderate and pleasant. I can only recommend it for you.

I originally made these Ebony scales w/ Brazilian Cherry wedge for a W&B wedge but after viewing it a bit I decided they just didn't fit aesthetically. They are now on this Friedmann and Lauterjung 6/8 and I think they fit much better. The blade shaved quite well this morning but I'll work on it a bit since I think it can be improved.

Thursday
Wasn’t going to shave, but after getting bored and then taking this photo I couldn’t resist having a shave so I could post the picture.
My W&B photographed against a projection of an 8mm 1950(ish) B&W version of ‘The Mummy’ projected from a Norris 8 Synchroner 100 sitting on my desk onto an A4 piece of paper pinned to the wall (no Photoshopping at all; not even cropped).
Like I said, I was bored...
Shave was very lovely, W&B just off the Shapton 16k, no stropping...none after honing or before shaving...Interesting...The T&H Trafalgar was very lovely in abundance...
First time I’ve mixed the La Toja in an Über with the C&E Nomad. Very nice...
Razor: Wade and Butcher Pre Shave: None Überlather : La Toja/C&E Nomad ASB: None After Shave: Truefitt and Hill Trafalgar

Becomming bored can lead to all sorts of creative thoughts? Some of my better idea's come during moments of boredom and day dreaming.
