I'd say a little decadence was allowed today.

Have a great week gentlemen!

Congrats to you, your daughter and your family. Enjoy them, the grow up way too fast.

Well done, great photo.

LOVE the American stuff

Me too!!! I love my Easy Aces. Great shaver.


Due to my beliefs, I have not enjoyed shaving since the passing of my Father on 5/16. Shaving has been kept to a minimum and the hardware would make you cringe.
I look forward to enjoying a shave once again and posting my SOTD here.

Enjoy the day.

What a lovely day with the sun shining bright!!

Tuesday

Razor | Burrell Top Flight| Soap | Mike’s Natural Pine and Cedarwood| After Shave | Pashana Bay Rum

Recycled photo of the Burrell today, as I feel unmotivated and ‘muse-less’. The razor was nice and sharp but the lather I made was terrible. It was actually the de Pews that was ‘programmed’ for today, but I haven’t finished honing it; the honing equipment is still on the dining room table more than a week after I set it out there.

I have got a funny story to tell, though. Today was gym day. I sort of felt that my board shorts that I wear in the gym felt funny after I put them on. I didn’t think anything of it and put on my shoes and T shirt and was about to step out the change room when one of my son’s socks fell out of my shorts; it had been caught up on the Velcro in the dryer. I was actually very happy that it fell out in the change room, I’d find it hard to explain if it happened in the gym, esp as it was one of those small ankle sports socks. It'd be like, “Yeah, I stuff a sock down there, but I only need a small one…”
