Santa Maria Novella Shaving Cream : Simpson Chubby 2 Two bands : Machida Isshi Kamisori : Locion Santa Maria Novella Melograno

Rene loaned me this razor to try out. The prep went precisely as I've come to expect from the Arlington soap. A moist, thick lather exploded from the Thäter. My two days growth seemed to melt away in front of this little Sheffield blade. I was left with a CBS face. The Piguet is a new cologne I decided to try. It's very nice with a patchouli and sandalwood heart. I'm interested to see how the dry down compares, but so far I'm enjoying it. Now it's time to put that bow tie on and get ready for court...

Razor: Weishi 9306 DE
Prep: hot water, Barbasol
Brush: van der Hagen boar
Soap: Williams
A/S: witch hazel, Chipre
Result: DFS

Bill was very generous to let me try his new Maxtom. What a wonderful piece of art. CBS in no time and with no effort.

Been in bed for a couple days sick. I think I've beaten back the ebola virus enough to go to work. Looking for a quick, no frills nice shave this morning and this worked out perfectly.

I had a moment here at work to check in and look when I realized that I had mistakenly called my WM Greaves & Sons wedge a W&B yesterday. LOL Nobody caught me in my "lie". How rude of me. Well todays shave was with a W&B and after getting home it will get posted.

No shave today. mainly because I'm utterly, utterly depressed. Bailey, my grandson, had been complaining of a sore leg for a few weeks, and we were worried that the cancer (Ewing's sarcoma) had come back in a different limb. That bought back that horrible black feeling of worry that makes me feel physically nauseous. After X-rays yesterday we have the all clear at this stage; pending a radiographer report on Wednesday, however that horrible feeling hasn't fully left me yet. I seem to be back to getting no enjoyment out of anything at all and hating everyone and everything. I don't think i coludl go throug it all again, i really don't.. So i may be away for a while until i feel a bit cheerier..

Will the real W&B please stand up???

I'm surprised that nobody caught me in my mistake. I called yesterdays razor a W&B and it obviously was not.. Oops... Guess I'm getting old or was already thinking of todays shave....
Great shave this morning. 3 passes as usual. still CBS as I write this.
I rest my case!!
