Aye aye ye landlubbers. This evening brought along the theme 'The further adventures of Captain Fawcett and the hunt for the lost rose treasures of the mysterious black box'.
Admiral of the shave - Master Enoch of Occam
Captain of the good ship lollipop - Captain Kai
Bosun brush - The Groom Room wee whiskey barrel
'I said 24 mm not 24 inches'
Black box of treasures - Captain Fawcett soap
Treasure of the siren rose - Czech and Speake 88
'Give us some of those big 'Aye Ayes' ye hopeless motley crew to get this shave rolling on the waves'
'Indeed hopeless'
After over a week of giving it some RazorRock Hawk, this evening I decided to reach for the Enoch being as everything else had been overlooked and looking dejected. It doesn't quite shout 'me me me' being a small characterless object compared to its bigger neighbours on the shelf flexing their oversized muscle and bulk, and to be honest it remains an arse to load which gives it a 'I can't be fucked' appeal. But this evening I could be 'fucked' and so risked fingers, limbs and whatever else you could cut off with a sharp blade.
End result razor with a blade. Few
The last few phew days have seen me trying face lathering for a change and to be honest I am rather enjoying it. Certainly quicker and one less object to clean at the end of a shave. 20 minutes to load a blade and 2 minutes to lather. Not bad
I couldn't recommend this Captain Fawcett's highly enough. If ever anyone is looking for something different, a great soap and a great scent, then it is well worth a punt. A quality product in a sexy wooden bowl. Okay, more a sultry lady in black leather with a big whip kind of bowl. Laverly. Even more latherly when the brush duties are given to the Groom Room's super little brush.
Everything being in great order so give it some splish, splash, whip me, whip me, whip me, slice me, slice me, slice me and, 'Kazam!' and as if by magic a most divine and wonderful shave. Smooth? Too bloody right. Heavenly? Aye Aye. A lady killer aroma? I haven't got there yet. Patience you lot.
To finish it all off a good spray of C&S 88. Now as you may have noticed the 88 is not in its usual bottle and looking more like a urine sample in a bejewelled glass bottle. Unfortunately while removing the cap on the usual bottle the whole of the neck sheered away. I was gutted. Perhaps more so as I absolutely love the scent and I lost quite a bit down the sink. C&S have been absolutely wonderful with their customer service and everything has been made good without me even asking. All I did was write to let them know what had happened and just to be aware as they may want to revisit their scent bottles.............and a whole new bottle is on its way to me! Super service and so impressed I went back and bought another one of their products for my wife's birthday just around the corner. 10/10 in every way for C&S.
A great shave all round and so bloody happy you can have some more of the mad Japanese tub thumper and her wonderful band
Be well everyone out there and yes I do still love you
