Hello one and all.
It's been a long old time since I was in these parts (about a year and a half at least I think), so I thought I'd better say hello again to those that may remember me and hello to those that have found this splendid place whilst I was away.
So why the long break away? Well, in a nut shell, I found a little corner of shaving nirvana in the shape of Muhle R41 o/c, a tube of Palmolive, a splash of Floid blue and a couple of New Forest silver tips.
So far,so good right? Absolutely. Then, the other day, I looked at the razors on my rack that I'd narrowed down to a trim five and picked up my Ever Ready 1912 SE, popped in a Gem blade and really took my time for the first time in a long time.
Everything came back to me; the pleasure of the shave, the smell of a good lather and with that, the gentlemanly camaraderie here at TSR.
So here I am, back again.
You can take the man from The Shaving Room but not The Shaving Room from the man.
Finally, a warm very belated welcome to those that found their way here during the time I was away and a just as warm hello to everybody out there.
