The end is nigh for the soap [emoji22] about one more shave to squeeze out. On the bright side opens up a space for a new soap [emoji3]

It's been a while since I let this beast of a brush out of its cage. Largest brush I own and it's great.

Thursday 18th February 2016
Prep: Shower
Razor: GEM OCMM
Blade: Treet Carbon
Brush: Duke 3
Soap: Boots Vintage
Aftershave: Astral Cream (soft)
EDT: Serge Lutens Chergui
I have not posted for a week as I was admitted to hospital with severe stomach pains, only to be diagnosed with suffering from acute Pancreatitis, anyway after a weeks first class treatment and a goodly lot of Morphine I am out and now feeling quite well (that Morphine delivered I.V. in 60's speak is 'real good shit man!')
The cause Whisky, a bottle a week for the last 18 or so years seems to have taken it's toll and I have had my oracle read about packing in, advice I am taking, not that there's much choice.
I did manage to shave each day in hospital with a Schick J1 and a tube of cream, I choose the times when I was 'high', no damage to report though!
Regards
Dick.

Good to have you back, Dick.
I must say, when I had to start a new SOTD thread over on TOST I thought to myself, "funny this, Dick usually gets us started with a fresh week" but didn't connect.
You've had a rough ride indeed. Listen to those sages though, eh?

Well I have to say, that was one of the good shaves. The soap was better than I expected. Great orange scent while I lathered and a historic patchouli while shaving. Clean as a ♫♫♫
