Tarkus,
Beautiful shave. Does Trumper's seriously stain your brushes (bristles or handles)? I never had that problem with it. Hmmmmm !! Maybe more rinsing after the lather ( I mean serious thorough rinsing)

Thursday is Burrell day (I have a list) and it’s interesting that I was talking about Burrells here just the other day. I had a very rushed shave this morning, I was running late to pick up Bailey; I’m looking after him for the day (I’m on holidays this week). I shaved in probably less than five minutes flat. Normally of course I like to take my time, the average is about ten minutes. That’s from beginning to end, making the lather, etc. Unfortunately as I was rushing a little too much I KNOW I rolled the edge at the heel slightly on the post shave strop. I’ll need to touch it up on the Shapton a bit later…

Razor: Burrell Top Flight

Pre Shave: Proraso

Cream: C O Bigalow

After Shave: Clubman

Carl, in reply to your comment about the Burrell. It has a 5 in the middle of the wings between the Top and Flight.
Glad to hear Bailey is healing nicely, what a brave little boy!
Slow down and enjoy the shaves....5 minutes!!! It takes me that long just to pick a razor...LOL

Thursday

Prep: Hot Shower/ Proraso pre-post creme (almost out...)
Brush: Thater 4125-2
Scuttle: G5
Soap: Mike Natural Orange/Cedarwood/Black Pepper
Razor: Bresduck Special #1, 11/16, square point
Post: Proraso AS/ Nivea Lotion
Result: Really getting the hang of this soap. I love the way the scent dries down to a cedar and hint of pepper note. Three passes with the duck and it's off to work I go...

Have a Great Thursday Gents!
