Thread: Sun - April 28tht - Sat May 04th

Prep: Hot Shower
Razor: Wosty Pipe 5/8
Soap: RazoRock La Famiglia, Don Marco
Brush: Semogue 610
A/S Master Bay Rum

Result: Wow, what a fine shave. A while back I said I didn't care too much for this soap. I've been using it a lot lately to try to finish it, and now I'm really liking it, a lot. Funny how that works. This brush does a good job, too. As for the bay rum, I picked up this bottle yesterday at Sally's and used it for the first time today. I like it, nice scent, little burn, and it feels right with the temperatures in the 90's. You all have a great Tuesday!

Queensday shave
Prep: A glass of Talisker and a Montechristo Habana
Gebr. v.d. Sanden razor - MWF (all hail!) - generic silver tip badger brush - cold water splash - hot Patchouilli bath - Pinaud Clubman after shave

A Great shave. The van der Sanden always delivers. The Clubman has been on the side-bench for a while, but today it was the time. Smooth in two and all the fun in the world. We got a king today. Not that I care, but still it sounds kind of cool.

Take care of that knee and get it on the mend.

I have already had mine worked on three times.
They are much better now and I wish I had done it sooner,
but if I had listened to the doctors in the first place at least one time could have been avoided.

I can't even REMEMBER how many knee ops I've had. Last time they just snipped off the tendon and threw it away! I'm 'too young' for a knee replacement, but with channels worn in my knee caps, torn ligaments, bits of cartilage floating around, and a right knee I can grab and wobble to the front and back by about 2 centimetres I know JUST how iffy knees feel.

Hope it can be fixed without too much work. It';s amazing what they can do via an arthroscopy...

Just want to lick that cream!

That batch worked out well, just the right amount of water. TOBS is great.
