Last day at the school tomorrow, and the kids are off which means it's a mufti day. That means some scrotes don't shave, but they are the ones who don't do it as a hobby!

Another great shave from the Polsilver. I'm thinking about trying the Feather again as of Saturday and might need something newer (and sharper) in it. I reckon if I was keeping with this combo I could get another 2 shaves from it.

Razor: Bengall by T R Cadman and sons
On of my top shavers and one of my two or three best Sheffield razors, wonderful shave! :D

Hey kindly Unca Mikey,

God help me for asking about anything straight related...I would bet on having permanent blabber's remorse over this.

So that's a top performing razor of yours eh? It's one made in the UK, of which I know there were lots of good makers using Sheffield steel or working in that town back then.

You have other razors made elsewhere that you also like a lot.
 
Friday:
Sensor / Noxzema

Oscar de la Renta Pour Lui EDT ... smells like one of the Original Lynx body sprays but can't decide if it's Musk or Amber. Very, very nice though.

Brush - Vulfix Guvnor
Cream - T&H west indian limes

Friday

Gillette Fat Handled Tech (English)
Supermax SS (1)
Simpson's "Wee Scott"
C&E Sandalwood oap

Nivea ASB
Forest Fresh AS

Three pass, face lather.

Still plodding on, the WARS cream and the Harvard ASB have both now gone.

I read somewhere here recently that the little Scottie was good with hard soaps. Believe me it is better than good, it is excellent with the always wonderful C&E Sandalwood.

Been using this set-up for about a week now and my face feels uber smooth and toned. C&E are very underrated soaps in my opinion.

Enjoy the rain everyone; hopefully it will keep down any dust and debris at 1111hrs today.
