Very nice indeed. Thought I'd manage an easy but not especially close shave but this pleasantly surprised me
 
Friday morning

Proraso pre
Merkur 34c HD
Personna red (2)
TOBS Jermyn St SC

WTG and XTG passes with a touch up to the neck. A very acceptable shave. Still recovering from my 3 days with the R41 so I've not gone for BBS again yet. Shaving rest day tomorrow then I may go back to the GEM for a while.
 
Greetings

Friday 1st February 2013
Prep: Shower
Razor: GEM Contour
Blade: GEM Stainless Coated
Brush: Shaving Factory Medium Boar
Cream: Palmolive Soap and Cream + glycerine
Aftershave: Floid Balm

Bowl lathered just for a change and made some überlather, a very nice shave with what is probably my mildest SE razor, but a lot of touching up required, especially when compared to razors like the OCMM and Clog-Pruf.


Regards
Dick.

Sorry to hear about that... make sure they have a proper look at the x-ray. When I fell over and broke my foot a few years ago, they rather missed the fact that I actually had a fracture. After three weeks of agony I was grudgingly sent along to the fracture clinic...
