Its been a nice weekend. Got a few things done arround the house today. Yesterday we had fish and chips down at Coffs Harbour Jetty and spotted a couple of whales swimming by.
A fantastic shave was a nice way to wrap up the weekend.
I've had quite a few shaves with this Bengall since restoring and honing it but it still holds a great edge.
3 passes and I'm BBS.

Looking forward to the week ahead on SOTD. Thanks for all the great posts and pics

Result: Today's shave was a very quick 2 pass shave with my most prized razor. Excellent results considering I was rushed. I had planned on a very relaxing, drawn out shave today...but the 2 ½ year old had other plans. I believe she has hit the “3's” early as her new favorite word is “NOT”. This word seems to pop up in the strangest places. Allow me to provide a few entertaining examples.

Example #1: She didn't want to go to bed and I was carrying her up the stairs when she smacked me in the face. She was rewarded with time out and in order to get out of time out, she must say “Sorry, no hit Daddy”. Well, she kept saying “I NOT sorry, I NOT sorry!”....this was really hard not to laugh at. After a long drawn out battle, she finally got it right.

Example 2: She was crying as I accidentally scared her when I hurried towards her saying “no,no,no” in an effort to to keep her from hitting her head on a wooden scarecrow while we were at the pumpkin patch. I picked her up and said “It's ok, Daddy loves you”...her reply “No, No, No, Daddy NOT love you!”, my wife chimes in “yes Daddy loves you, tell Daddy you love him”...her reply, ”No, I NOT love Daddy, I NOT!”...a little sting as this was the first time I heard that, but again, difficult not to laugh at the assertion of this normally sweet little girl.

Example #3:At Sunday school, they do 1 memory verse each month. They work on the verse each Sunday, even with the 2 year olds. This month's verse is “I can do all things through Christ”. Here is what she said is her memory verse “I can do all things through NOT Christ”...I'm speechless and trying, again, desperately not to laugh.

Great shaves fellas, keep them coming!

There is nothing (well almost) better then after a long work day hitting a hot shower and a nice relaxing shave! The LT and TOBS mixed up into a fine lather. Thick and silky with Jermyn Street scent blending around the house. The Goldedge took care of all the offending whiskers with out a hitch. Have a great Mon gents. I'm prob going to take a off day.
