Wow! What a superb pic!! And you are new.... so welcome to our group of smooth-faced, fine smelling gentlemen!!

Thursday

Excellent shave with the J A Hellberg Frameback this morning. This gave a really close nice smooth shave. Two passes (I had a meeting to attend). Trafalgar was an excellent choice for today, which was cold and wet. It seemed to match the mood a little. Especially when you consider as I drove to work I had snow on my car. Snow is about a once in 10 years event around here, and there was precious little of it this morning on the car (a handful or two) at 7:30 AM. The last time it snowed round here it lasted until maybe 10:30 in the morning. I’m starting to really value these Swedish steel razors…

One day to go, guys, then it’s weekend time, and it’s going to be about 25 here on Sunday, a nice day for either the Botanical gardens or a forest walk, I think…

BTW, what on earth happened? Did everyone all of a sudden take a creativity pill? The photos and gear today is just astonishing. Some of those photos are just incredible, really...

I have to agree with Carl, you gentlemen have really outdone yourselves as of late. Outstanding pics, makes me think you guys are all covert ad execs...
