Thanks Ben I'm going to buy one after crimboI'm thoroughly enjoying it. It is now my only brush and isn't shedding, is soft, potentially a bit floppy for most but right up my street. For reference I only face lather and it's coping with that. I bet the 2-band equivalent is a good one too.
A like a bit of shoegazing Rob. Do any My Bloody Valentine tracks feature?

First time using the ATT S2 for a while after it's little holiday with @Boru62 . Thanks Kevin for taking care of it.
No issues removing 4 days growth with the Polsilver blade being a superb match for the S2.
The SV soap provided plenty of protection and glide.
Finished off with a sample of GFT Coral Skin Food (received from Executive Shaving).
This was the first time using anything by them and rated it. Not sure if it aided to the shave as the SV soap is already class.
I might have used a bit too much to finish off with but it didn't take too long to absorb into the skin. My skin now feels soft and smooth without a hint of stickiness.
I thought seen as we are coming up to the end of the year. I'd leave you with my top 10 tracks of 2017 with a couple on my SOTD posts running up to New Year (hopefully this won't annoy anyone).
Here's the first two to kick things off..

‘Loveless' is certainly among my top 5 albums of all time. I think I saw them a year later than you Rob. Talk about a wall of noise. Breathtaking.No, sorry Barry. All the tracks I've picked have been released this year.
I do like their first two albums though. I've seen them only once many years ago (1992 to be exact) on the 'Rollercoaster' tour they did with Blur, The Jesus and Mary Chain and Dinosaur Jr.
MBV blew everyone else off the stage.

First shave with this razor very kindly leant to me by Wayne. I don't know if I was just being overly cautious with a new razor but I found it very mild, to the point after 3 passes I had to finish off under my chin with a mach3. Wayne included a number of blades so I'll try a different one next time.
When I did my hunt up the high street last week I missed the body shop as it's tucked up an arcade, impressed with my purchases.
Hi, how good is the Rocca? Current razor is Edwin J. Thanks
