Oh how the cold weather has set in. I was passed down the street this morning by three monkeys asking if I had seen their bollocks?
This was actually yesterday's shave but life and everything else got in the way so a bit of a delayed entry. Or at least that is my excuse. To be honest this past week was a bit of a pig as this darned Covid saw a number of crews down so ended up having to cover for quite a lot of absentees. Usually I manage a bit of free time to scribble away some useless drivel, but not this past week. But, here I am, a week off, a lock down and enough spare time at the moment to torture you endlessly.
The one thing I really love about SE razors (other than their superiority) is the longevity of the blades. I don't know how many this particular Super Pro has seen but I am guessing well in excess of 15 and it still soldiered on. I finally disposed of it as I want to try Schicks again, so more through boredom and a change is as good as a rest than an end of its life thing. Despite its unknown life it still managed to turn in an amazing performance. Three full passes to shave paradise and enough lather left from the never ending jar of Extro to see a damn good buffing. An absolute blinder of a shave and up there with the rest of my 'Great shaves in life'.
Honest if anyone wants a great orange scent and a bloody marvelous soap I do highly recommend the Extro Arancia. A truly wonderful soap with every quality you could ever wish for. The Dandelion? The best £20 you could ever spend on shaving.
Throw on some good old basic Nivea moisturiser, a walloping of the Arancia aftershave splash and this is shaving heaven. Or at least on the staircase (if you've gone out and bought one)
And what fine maidens there are to be found on this staircase
have a most bodacious weekend all you razorteers and may everyone, your families your friends and whoever be safe, healthy and well. I love you all
I couldn't find any Monkey related Japanese girly music but here have the closest I can get. Grab yourselves some Pink Panda
