I was away for the weekend and got home very late last night but first thing this morning I opened my parcels - evidence of seriously advancing RAD:
Just been used for the first time:

Mergress from Lee’s Safety Razors, actually ordered a couple of weeks ago and a New Forrest 2201

Marvellous

I'm a happy camper! Two lovely things were delivered by my postie this morning!

The 1947 Milord came of Fleabay I took a chance because it looked crap on the pics.
Well, I'm glad I did, the thing is about as mint as it gets, the head is beautiful and shiny, no plating loss, the box is as new.. all that's missing is an appropriate blade dispenser..

I'm actually wondering if it has seen any use, cause it's like new :D

This is the Mr-Razor pic: <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.mr-razor.com/Rasierer/One-Piece%20solid%20guard%20bar/1947%20Milord.JPG" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://www.mr-razor.com/Rasierer/One-Pi ... Milord.JPG</a><!-- m --> (mine is actually in better shape! :D)

So if anyone has a blade packet like the one that was meant to be with this razor, please let me know!

And then of course my NF brush from fido, which will have to get a test run this evening! It feels lovely!

Ok, I'm happy.. does it show? :D :lol: :lol: :D :D

I think the blades you want are the ones in this set Max.

Yes, that would be cool.. so have you got some? ;)

otherwise:
STEVE??? :lol: :lol:

Max

Edit: I just checked the cases differ slightly between the one on B&B, and on Mr-Razor, mine is the B&B version (wider space for the blade packet)
Mine is in as good condition as the one one B&B, except the case lettering on the top is not as visible.

I originally bought a refill puck of MWF when I was searching for a high end soap and decided to buy the ceramic dish so I now have a spare refill too.

150 Gillette 7 o'clock yellow blades from ebay.
 
Today I received approx 110 - 120 kg of flat packed wardrobe which SWMBO will be wanting as a "wardrobe" by the time she gets in from work tonight.

Afraid not. I think I saw a pack (used) on sale on ebay over the last couple of weeks though, so might be worth checking there to see if it's still listed.
 
Got some of that Bodyshop macca shaving cream yesterday .
New forest arrived this morning
And a big thank you to Nathan for the Ollagala bay rum cologne smells real nice.
 
I love that Acca Kappa stuff, I have tried the shower gel, bath soap and cologne, I want the shaving soap but the price of the Wengwood bowl means if I do buy it I shall be putting it in a spare one.
 
Yes, but I believe the one I got (125ml, tube) is older, less almondy and just a bit different compared to the 200ml tub stuff.
We'll see. Gave it a test lather half an hour ago and it smells discreetly nice. But perhaps I should have bought the tub from TGS.

Where can you buy Acca Kappa in the UK? I fancy trying the cologne.

Out of Stock? Or £45 a bottle? :lol:
 
Yes it is expensive but nice. The Cologne is like a nicer version of Fahrenheit, not like Farenheight per see it is of a similar deep woodsy smell that I love. Missus loves it as well.
 
Speaking of acquisitions I "acquired" that Pils on the bay last night, should be here tomorrow. Was sent next day guaranteed by 1pm delivery. I shall be able to complete that Pils v Feather stand off sooner than I thought, though at my rate it will take till about Christmass for me to do the write up.
