I’ll definitely have to get some more Truefitt and Hill Trafalgar; I’ve had this bottle for almost a year; it was one of the first ‘fancy’ aftershaves I bought when I first started straight shaving a little over a year ago. Before that after shaves were bought by family for Father’s day and birthdays. I like the Trafalgar; it’s a very sunny citrusy scent; for spring and summer; so I should order some.
Was listening to old style Gospel music on the way to work again this morning. I didn’t actually realise what a great Gospel singer I am. It’s quite astonishing, really. The highlight of the day; though, was watching a Black Shouldered Kite hovering looking for prey.
Cufflinks of the day were birds too. Pheasants. Mightily pissed off I was when I saw that leaving the lids off my cufflink boxes was a BAD idea. The damp air allowed water to get under the glass and stain the background a little. My wife hates these, which is entirely why I continue to wear them of course.
I’ve enjoyed our conversation throughout this working week; have a nice weekend. I hope for you the weekend is sunny, 25, slight, slight breeze; or maybe 35, boiling hot, at the pool or beach; with a really nice hot night and a party to go to.
Catch you later, Carl
PS, wish I could post a link to Mary Don't You Weep by The Caravans, but my internet connection's been slowed and it's taken about an hour just to post THIS!!!
