Give me five minutes in a sealed room with the cunt. Arthritis or no, he’d get the full wrath of my Fraser temper.

Cheers G man, just remember the thing I gave you was not meant for that use case! Although I flipping saw red when he said it (from the safety of behind his laptop the wee shite!)

View attachment 96711Magic shave tonight.
The scent on this soap is spot on and a wonderful take on Brut.
There’s a good few soaps out there i would be very disappointed iv i couldn’t get again & this is one of them.
I really like the way these companies do a homage to the older scents.
The Rocca paired with the london bridge was also class
a really fine shave.

B&M? It’s P&B, ye daft hobo!

I do love that iconic, powdery scent though.

Today I just needed something relaxing which I know works without any surprises or experiments. And... perfect.

I have always mean to ask are you based in Kentucky? I used to live in Cincinnati and had a friend who's wife came from there and always joked about getting 'lucky in Kentucky', I thought it was a general saying for the area or it might have been just something he came up with?

I'm not a native as I'm from Pennsylvania originally and never heard it. He ust be the originator

Soap: A&E Fruits de la Passion
Splash: A&W Fruits de la Passion

I was so good at remembering to take pictures and now I keep forgetting! Bit of a disappointment from the RRGC, it felt like a premium razor but harsh, whereas the SLOC yesterday felt light and flighty like a cheap razor but a closer more comfortable shave. Fruits de la Passion was a rare scent miss from A&E. It's a pleasant scent light with citrus notes, but I was expecting something darker and more passionate, so this is going straight in the sell pile and B&M Passiflora takes that role in my collection.

Another cracking shave, nice smooth run with an exceptional finish. The lather channels are quite novel, as long as you're using warm water it'll clear out the lather and give you spouts of water out the side. I've only noticed this same effect on the WR3 when you have water running into the back and the head when clearing it...yes I'm easily entertained.

There are only 2 minor notes that I have and neither of them would make me stop using it. The first is the positioning of the flattened areas on the handle, now this is just because I insist on putting a washer on there, but it means the flattened parts are marginally off from where my fingers naturally fall. Without though its perfect, so perhaps seeing as I never intend to get rid I could do away with the washer.

The second are the corners of the baseplate, they are relatively pointed, so if you're off a little on the run it can poke. Now this is me really nitpicking, it's not going to gouge holes in your face so again not major.

Still very happy, smooth and irritation free!

Hope everyone has a cracking day and a good kick off to the weekend!

Cheers

Marc
