For a second bite of the blade I give this shave the theme 'Captains, barrels and cut throats'
Aye Aye something to cut ye throat - Univinlions Kamisori shavette
Aye Aye something to make sure it does - Feather Super Professional
Brush ye varmin - The Gentleman's Groom Room whiskey barrel brush
No no, barrel brush
Cap'n - Captain Fawcett's Scappichio soap
Foo Foo for the crew - Mrs Satanfriendly's home brewed fig and nutmeg moisturiser
To start this shave let's have more of those 'Aye Aye' type things.
'Aye Aye Aye'
Okay that's enough. I have been a seaman now for some 45 years and a Master for the past 18 or so and to be honest if anyone said 'Aye Aye Captain' I always looked at them as if to say 'You taking the piss?' And they probably were. Not so bloody funny when they were later keel hauled and then whipped with nine cats all complaining of a lack of tails. I am a bit of a traditionalist.
So to be a total traditionalist I decided to continue down the
road river of learning how to skin said cats by practising on my own face. Step up the Kamisori shavette once again. That object of fear for small rodents and someone's idea of a laugh in the name of shaving.
You can always trust a Captain and Captain Fawcett is a soap ingrained with honesty and integrity. He also happens to be pretty good at whipping up a damn good lather. Even better when he is over the barrel. Or in this case the wee barrel brush.
As it so happens this shave turned out much the same as previous. Cheeks and neck with the straight (ish kind of thing) and awkward areas with the V2. Not to be any different once again a little nick just to let me know 'Chris you're rubbish', in much the same way my youngest granddaughter keeps telling me. May be there is some stark honesty in little people.
May be not quite as smooth as I would normally aim for but close enough to say, 'Happy bunnyism'
A good massage of Mrs Satanfriendly's home brewed moisturiser based around that great scent from The Bath House, 'Spanish fig and nutmeg' and all is nicely complete. Well why not? A further spray of the same cologne and life is looking up. After all Mrs SF did say she was going to give me a flash of her fanny, but I think I misheard that one
You pathetic old man
Ah well at least we arrive at the only point of my SOTD worth the journey.
