Actually, it was written by Dave Austen - who had to overcome a gender handicap at the time. Don't start me on the Bronte brothers.
Sibling to Deeva Austen-Morris?

The Legend that is @Boycie83 will be most pleased with the Mogno in a box.View attachment 71832
Prep: Shower, Palmolive Olive Oil Soap
Soap: Mogno
Brush: 24mm Yaqi Sagrada Familia Tuxedo
Razor: Merkur 34C HD
Blade: Voskhod (2)
Post: Brut ASL, Baxters Balm
Today's shave was - in the words of that annoying little Russian oligarch rat - Simples. And that's exactly what was needed. Did I really need to follow the Mogno/Brut combo with a balm. Not really - the smell and finish was perfect without, but when you've bought that many damn tubes of Baxter's it makes sense to use them at every opportunity. Tune in next week for tips on Cooking with Baxter's, Cleaning with Baxter's and Arts and Crafts with Baxter's
Thanks Russ. But bare in mind other opinions on the soap, there's a lot more experienced shavers on here than me!Beautiful Razor Mark , you made some lovely choices with it. Thank you for your view on the P and B Soap , thats very helpful.
You're missing out. My shaves up to using the Prospoon were epicScrap that - I've just realised it's the new AC blade that Connaught have. I feel so lucky that so far the lure of this area of shaving has eluded me!

Today was meant to be my first shave with a slant as shown in the picture (Fatip Lo Storto), but I found the top cap and top of the base plate to be pitted, so that will hopefully be winging its way back shaving station soon, the RR GC .84 stood in faithfully for me and with the perma-sharp delivered another FF/BBS Shave
The new P&B Vegan Soap was very nice to use, a subtle scent, tons of residual slickness left after a pass, easy to face lather after 15 seconds of load up.
Damm it, I just realised I stuck it in a tin, It's just I prefer not having a soggy box, sorry @Boycie83
Have a good day all.
Joe
