    What is a "Cut throat shavette"

    It's a thing that looks like a straight razor but holds a disposable blade so you don't need to strop or hone it.

    The loft of my badger hair brush has shortened

    I've never seen a sadder-looking brush! Poor thing.

    I believe Lego to be the most painful thing you can stand on after a plug.

    Your James Bond, Sherlock Holmes and Doctor Who

    Bond was supposed to be rough-cut, he was based on a composite of commandos that Fleming had met. Bond also had a Scottish father and attended school in Scotland. The reason Craig's suit was over-tailored in Casino Royale was to create the impression that he wasn't comfortable wearing one...

    Razorock soaps - Any good

    I've only tried the Mudder Focker, great scent and I would rate the soap as good but not exceptional.

    Online privacy

    Obviously that could potentially be exploited in a way no-one would want and is one reason why IMO no internet-connected device should be in a child's bedroom. The temptation for them to be messing about on the computer instead of sleeping being another one.

    Online privacy

    I'd have no problem with that, my company laptop is only used for work, it's not a personal device. As for the kids, surely a school laptop should be used for schoolwork? Depending on the age of the children under parental supervision.

    Things are starting to get a little crazy...

    Nobody wearing a mask is going to keep it on when they sneeze, so (that's) the infected wearing them being of limited use. If it's for your own protection you also need goggles as the eyes are a way in, and if you're going down that route everything you've had exposed to the air needs to be...

    Things are starting to get a little crazy...

    Wearing a mask won't help you unless you have a full PPE ensemble and decontamination protocol when you return home. In fact a mask is likely to do more harm than good as it will encourage you to touch your face to futz with it, will give a false sense of security and lastly people are re-using...

    Do you leave the blade in the razor?

    Shave, rinse under tap, put back on the shelf for the next shave. I typically use one razor and blade until it's done.

    If your system's so compromised that someone's remotely controlling your webcam you have bigger problems than them seeing you crack one off. ;)

    Feather AS-D2s

    Not really as far as I can tell.

    Feather AS-D2s

    The AS-D2 is essentially a stainless steel Tech. Whether or not (that's) a good thing is down to personal preference but I love mine.

    How frequent do you shave?

    Daily, although it's not religious and I do miss the odd one.

    Does an £80 Brush Really Make a Difference?

    Every time I use one of my Shavemac badgers this question is answered with a resounding yes! Maseto badgers are also very good for under £50. My experience with cheap synths has been that they've had either massive glue bumps scratchy tips or both. Boars are a bit of an exception as really...

    Going against the grain

    I don't go against the grain, my beard's coarse and shaving against it hurts. Also the few times I have done it I can feel stubble against the grain after a couple of hours anyway.
