A wonderful weekend and only right that I start by singing the beautiful 'Perfect Day' by the late great Lou Reed.
Oh it's such a perfect day
I'm glad I spent all your money

Welcome, welcome, welcome you fellow beard hating shavateers and those of you who shave around bits of chin fluff. Me? I'm just happy to be fluffed.

'Well, as a gynaecologist, I must say this is the largest I've ever come across'
A photo never lies? Well this one does as I took the photo prior to having my annual bath. Washed with a bar of Signature coconut soap. Washed my hair with some coconut shampoo and coconut conditioner. Ate a Bounty bar and covered my nuts in coco. So I thought 'Sod this, I may as well go total coconuts and shave with Signature's top secret recipe. So I did.
Now, try getting a 30mm Cashmere brush in to a sample pot sized tin of shaving soap. Quite the antithesis to those comedic lines from the Stranglers 'London lady'. 'Making love to the Mersey tunnel, with a sausage have you ever been to Liverpool?'
As it is I personally don't find the lyrics titillating in any way as I often find myself with sausages in Liverpool. Why, only the other day I bought a pack 10 Cumberland sausages from the Tesco in Bootle. And believe me I know a few ladies from there who have a barrier and a toll booth.
As it is an absolutely perfect shave where the Mongoose shone out and ticked the 'Am I a God?' box. Of course using the very much in vogue (Well in my domain it is) Proline. Next month it'll be something different. That's satanism and indecisiveness for you. And of course, I smelt just like a coconut. What better to end it all with than the Laboratory Perfumes Gorse. It's coconutish, but not as we know it.
Well I guess there might be a coconut connection in here somewhere, and who knows?, possibly a mention of tunnels.
Sunday

'Swap you a cat turd for a sausage'
'It's a deal'
A blade on the last of its usable edge, but still managed to get a pretty decent shave with it and only a couple of small weepers to cry about. A great effort from the ADP and Cadman and well done team lather. As
@churchilllafemme once mentioned, 'probably the best soap there is'. He is quite correct. Haven't seen him around of recent and just hope all is well with him.
End of shave and a song to end on. Why, it's those Band Maid girlies...And before I depart this garbage it only takes me to say 'I love you all'
And I do
