    TUESDAY

    Hot shower prep
    Razor: Cuillére Brossard Veritable
    Soap: C.O.Bigelow
    Mug: soup cup
    Brush: 26mm generic silvertip
    Aftershock:alum bloc
    Splash: Benneton

    A fair shave today, New razor first shave off the hones. Back to the hones! C.O. Bigelow did its thing and saved my face! The Benneton, in very minute amounts, is great to awaken one!


    Another brand/ed of Lecoultre type, replaceable blade, frameback surfaces from France with the prestigious name of Brossard. That makes five different ones I've found. The only difference being the trade stamp and slight variations of the set screw.
    Some day I will get an actual Lecoutre?!?!?!

    The fun of trying things makes the day go a bit better and quicker!

    Spot on! It's called a trial frame and different powered lenses are inserted before each eye to determine the patient's prescription for spectacles. But not just for when you get old.

    Thank you, Sir. The carpet is an antique Persian that SWMBO and I purchased in Turkey last summer. The bowl also came from Istanbul. It works wonderfully as a lather bowl on the rare occasion that I bowl lather...
