My first horse hair brush.

Which model is this and where did you purchase it from? I like it's utilitarian looks.

Picked up my first serious coffee machine for Â£50 a good scrub and de scaling and it works great. Picked out a load of upgrades already for next payday and just need to find a suitable grinder at a suitable price.

Mines replacing my Delonghi as well. I made a cheeky offer to a seller on eBay who was up the road and keen for cash. It's never had a thorough clean, just need to get back flush basket and a double basket.

Received my Perfumania order. Not too bad for $22 shipped.

Darkbulb · Wednesday February 17, 2016

Also arrived;

1) A pack of Gillette Twinjector blades to be used with my Twinjector this week

2) A small lot that was bought essentially unseen for $25 shipped.

a) A small shaving soap bowl in pewter made in Sheffield, England

b) a NIB Merkur razor.
If anyone know what model this is please do let me know as I don't know myself but would love to.
It's a fairly small razor but with a nice weight to it.

RoastSessions · Wednesday February 17, 2016

Picked these up in TK Maxx this morning.

Uncle Bertie · Wednesday February 17, 2016

Been after one of these for a while, it even has a slim adjustable for the handle!
Not for use, just to adorn my man cupboard.

A few things to try c/o Facebook..........some I like and some not so much........and of course a Rockwell 6s Razor.

Looks like a great selection. Is there a shaving group on Facebook? Never really searched.

I'm liking the inlay for the razor, I might try and get something similar done.
