Well said Brother. Hope Bailey and your family had some good times over the Christmas season mate.
Man 2011 has flown by in the blank of an eye for me, but like you I'm hoping 2012 will be a better year

Tonights shave was a little tricky. I keep my tools in a metal shed in the back yard. Yesterday I went to grab a few clamps, and didnt duck my head as low as I should have when walking back out the door.
The result was a nasty gouge out of the top of my head.
I had to try to shave around the injured area, fortunately there's not a lot of hair around there. Never thought I'd say that
Still, a 2 pass DFS for the head tonight.



Pretty quiet night for me here, it's 11.30pm, the wife is in bed and I'm on SRP. At least I cant get in any trouble this way.

HAVE A GREAT NYE BROTHERS
