Saturday

DE day today. I like using the DE as I can really do three full passes, even sideways on my neck, which I can’t do with a straight. I think it’s really important to remember that three passes isn’t N to S, E to W (or W to E) and S to N. I can’t feel any hairs on my face and neck whatsoever. The Gillette Seven O’clock blades aren’t bad, better I think than the Dorko or Derby, but not as good as the Astra blades. Those are the only blades I’ve used.

I made an Überlather of the C O Bigelow, Proraso and some glycerine, which worked really well. Maybe overkill, but it was nice nevertheless.

Bailey gets out of hospital today from what we hope was his final operation. They needed to resurface the bone in his arm (which is now actually his left fibula) as it hadn’t melded with what was left of his humerus near the shoulder.

Have a great weekend, guys.
