Does it EVER stop snowing at your place???

overcast day full of off and on sprinkles , as i went to get in the shower it was a down pour with lightning/thunder , i had my bedroom window open abd my bedroom is across from the bathroom so i enjoyed a cool shower followed by a shave to the sound of rain and a nice cool flow of air ..

pre= shower
cream= QCS " Briar "
brush= antler handled silvertip
razor(s)
1) Shumate " Ben-Hur "
2) Super Speed
result=== the shumate was a good shaver to start but it was plucked from the others as my hand was drawn to it for hone from bevel to finish on my coticule bout .. im kinda excited i can feel a difference from stones now as this bout seems to be a bit on the crisp or keen side id say after finishing on water , a good shave but just not as smooth feeling as the blades that have come off my other coticule ... but very effective !!
i feel im just under where i should be on getting the maximum out of my new coticule honing passion but the shaves feel good to me and i know in time it will come !!

Brush: Semogue SOC SE 2012
