meh! it's too hot & humid to dig out the camera and such tonight.

I also received an aluminium Rocket in a trade with the Gent that is Mikael - I can't believe how light it is (around half that of the rocket).
Also, based on the plaudits from Rev-O (and the fact it was only 15 Euros delivered) I have won a Gillette Parat (or at least that's what it says and I think it is): <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=380245246191&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ...

Picked up my 500 Jewel blades as well so been a good week all in all as long as SWMBO doesn't find out :lol:

Rockets & Parats are all nice razors, if a vintage gillette cleans up well, don't matter what it is
How many guys on here sneak their new shaving goodies so their better halves don't find out ? i do :lol:
really i think she knows what i'm doing, if she doesn't say too much, i won't go on about her bloody shoe collection !

The Rocket was a tad grubby when it arrived but after a soak, a scrub and a bit of a polish it has come up quite nicely. The head is nice and shiny but the handle hasn't come up as well as I would like it to.
How do the rest of you make them as shiny as they all appear in the pictures?

Look nice, are similar in appearance to the classic ColonelK or MamaB soaps, however are shaped more like conventional toilet soaps, ie rectangular. Gave one a quick try & lathers very easily with what seems to be a firm, creamy lather. Thanks to The London Turk for tipping me off to these.
