    Feather AC RG, ProGuard
    Acca Kappa 1869 veggie
    Vie-Long horse
    Some L'Occitane sample balm
    Thayers Medicated

    Most likely my last or the one before the last shave here. Packing up seriously now, moving co. should be here Friday and I should be off on Saturday.

    Will most likely disappear from the boards for a while with this transition/relocation period, but should hopefully come back stronger after that...

    Tuesday

    Picture taken LAST night (Monday) about 1750K (0720Z), text written AFTER work (Tuesday) posted knowing the Tuesday that WAS, rather than is to BE...

    That’s last night’s evening sunlight streaming onto the chair, it’d be more romantic to say it was the early morning sun but honesty forbids.

    Went with the regimen from yesterday as I liked it so much.

    Corps of Artillery cuff links. British, I think, not Australian, but favourites nevertheless.

    It is worth stating for the unknowing that artillery lends dignity to what would otherwise be a vulgar conflict...

    PS, on posting this after knowing the Tuesday that was I would like to formally announce that I hate my job and wish only to pick flowers, drink, dance and sing....a bit like this:

    Guards! Make sure the Prince doesn't leave this room ... - YouTube


    Razor: Wade and Butcher
    Pre Shave: Proraso
    Cream: Musgo Real
    ASB: None
    After Shave: Truefitt and Hill Trafalgar
    Cuff links of the Day: Royal Artillery Cuff links

    Stranger, if you passing meet me and desire to speak to me, why should you not speak to me? And why should I not speak to you?

    Prep: Hot shower
    Brush: Simpson Polo 14
    Razor: Ari-Ya
    Cream: Vulfix, English Rose
    AS: Mennen, Skin Bracer
    Strops: Neil Miller
    Result: Uberclean

    I traded a razor for this Sommerset gigant brush... It's an absurd luxury feeling to use this one - it feels like it must feel when a gigant is petting his first kitten, with silk gloves. Wow! I need more Vulfix cream now, lol.



    ... Ohh, and some proper coulored coffee:

    Good luck with the move, do you have something sorted out? If you're heading this way let me know.

    Thank you so much gents.

    I'm off to Athens, Greece this weekend, after two years in the Baltics.

    New assignment will be in Ulsan, South Korea as of 1st December (3 years contract).

    @ace: Thanks but in Doha airport for a couple of hours this time to change planes (I'm taking QR on the way to Seoul end of November). May be next time...

    Tuesday

    Razor: 6/8 Dovo Best Quality
    Brush: Omega Boar
    Soap: Tabac
    A/S: Old Spice

    Well, it finally happened: my first complete shave using only a straight razor! Not BBS, but close...with no touch ups needed at all! Tabac on Tuesday always provides me wonderful lather with my Omega brush and the whole thing was capped off with my favorite aftershave: Old Spice!
