That's what I see every time you post!

I've been meaning to ask; Is the "83" your age or your IQ?
Almost daily over 2 years
I'd seek legal advice if my brushes, shaving kit, creams were threatened in any way. Do they not appreciate you looking fresh and smelling good? Do not succumb to the pressure of not allowing yourself a few choice items as and when. I was told similar many moons ago regarding my books. I laid down a very clear steer. 'touch my books and there will be consequences, I guarantee it'. The matter was never discussed again. Actually what about wear and tear, if I'm right and you said you have a brush that you have used for a long time and it sheds, chuck it or gift it away. that leaves you with two. One that you may use a lot so will wear out quicker and the other which you may or may not get on with. Therefore for rotation purposes another brush could be useful..... (I think this is a plausible argument, if one is needed at all).Thanks to everyone who has contributed to this discussion and I decided based on the replies to get a Semogue boar . That was until my wife and family told me that they would throw all my brushes , a Tesco brush, a Semogue HD badger and my Omega boar brush into the bin/ out of the house, if more "shit" was discovered. I will must therfore continue to enjoy my current hoard of brushes until they are completely worn out or knackered.
I would tell them to kiss my ass! Trash cans will accept women's and children's "shit" too! Grow a pair and buy what you want.Thanks to everyone who has contributed to this discussion and I decided based on the replies to get a Semogue boar .

Threaten the kids with loss of privileges and get them on your side. ‘Educate’ the missus with fact that everyone needs at least 5 brushes due to drying time, anti-shedding measures, skin type, possibility of mould, UV damage, hair variation, etc. Show her the price of some high end brushes and then ask her to reflect upon your cost saving choice. Mention how cheap blades are, how much money you’ve saved over carts, how much better your skin feels, doesn’t she notice the difference, a chore now made enjoyable, helps your mental health and all that jazz. A careful policy of mixed tactics including manful assertion, sweet talking, gentle cajoling and other such nefarious persuasion. Failing that just say feck it and and stand yer ground!
It's a sad state of affairs that you're having to argue any case for buying a new shaving brush.Thanks to everyone who has contributed to this discussion and I decided based on the replies to get a Semogue boar .

Agreed Radar, but then you don't live with my wife.......... my comments were a bit tongue in check to be honest although my lot do roll their eyes when any shaving gear arrives. Surprisingly they don't though if I buy or replace any aftershave or eau du parfum?It's a sad state of affairs that you're having to argue any case for buying a new shaving brush.
The cost of one Semogue brush is totally insignificant compared to the cost of hair products and cosmetics used by most women in a single day.
