Sensational lather from the Erasmic Cream! So thick and protective!

Superb shave from this British Valet VC3. Very smooth, indeed. Third run with the blade and I think it's getting better.

I saw the Quorum gift set (AS+ADT) in Home Bargains for £11.99 I will appreciate your feedback on those two.

Thank you
