- a quick shave before going out with a friend for a drink (or in other words 'to sample the local delicacies here').
- as a result of the above, a 'delicacy' from Laos was selected, results of sampling to be published in my website in due course.
- as far as shaving is concerned, still on the basic and reliable 'remote' setup, varying only one parameter (EdT/EdP) at the moment.
- went to the shops here today and saw a nice badger brush for 30 quid (Sephora), ok, nothing exciting and not silvertip or anything like this, but the handle was good looking; don't think I'll go back to buy it, but a couple of Guerlain perfumes were very tempting indeed.
- the water here is fine as well wrt hardness, nothing like the thing we have up in the Baltics and a tad worse that what we have in Athens, Greece.
- I always liked the design of the Friodurs.
I hope you'll have a good Sat night folks.
First shot is the clear winner, in my humble opinion! The 8/8 looks very nice, I too have one of those for when I start experimenting with S/R shaving next year.Mikael said:Pre: Hot shower

Used the strop before and after today (20/40 and 30/60) and did three passes - WTG, XTG and ATG. Today both life and shave was good! I couldn´t decide wich shot was the nicest today, so here you go:
