SOTD : Saturday 30th May - Friday 05th June 2020

Good afternoon, I hope all is well.

Pre- Myrsol Emulsion
Razor- R6S (R4)
Blade- Astra SP (8)
Brush- Omega Boar
Soap- Signature Soaps Danum
Post- Alum block followed by Myrsol Emulsion
AS- TGS Lemon and Mint

Cracking shave today, first time using @BrianH Signatures Danum. Lovely stuff, lovely lather and great residual slickness, I like this soap.
8th use of this blade and still no problems, decided to bank it though and go for another on the next shave. I might go for a first use of a feather.
All finished off with a rub of Alum with only a tiny bit of feedback and a drop of Emulsion and a good splash of Lemon and Mint AS.

All in all I'm a happy bunny and feeling good.

Stay Safe everyone

Fair question - from what you say about the razor - a reference to Enoch Powell's most famous speech?

'as I look ahead, I am filled with foreboding; like the Roman, I seem to see the River Tiber foaming with much blood.'

He was referencing Virgil - and the river - in your case - would be the Mersey. Ha ha ha - I.

I did think about 'The rivers of blood speach'. Which probably sounded fitting but not in the best of political taste.
