I decided it was best for me not to go because I'm a grouchy bastard when my shoulder flairs up and I didn't want to ruin their day.

I have hypermobility in most of my joints and my right shoulder seems to be the most affected. My right shoulder is fairly unstable (I can pretty much dislocate both of my shoulders, at will, without any pain and they go straight back in on their own about a second later) so my rotator cuff is overworked when I do pretty much anything. After a while my rotator cuff just gets too tired to continue working and then the shoulder pain happens.

I think it's finally time that I take these pains seriously and build up my shoulder strength.

Wow. How on earth would you build that up? I guess it'd have to be pretty light weights, otherwise the barbell would end up on the floor with you standing and you still gripping the bar!

A year ago I never would have believed that a 7/8 Hart Steel would ever feel small and light. I fear my tastes have grown out of control.

I have found an accurate picture of how it will go.




Being serious however, I've been to a physio before about my shoulder so know what to do to strengthen my rotator cuff. I just plan to keep doing it instead of stopping after the pain is gone.

This is definitely my favorite razor, not only to look at, but it gives a wonderfully smooth shave.
