ATT SE-G + Modified Base Plate

Pitralon Classic A/S Lotion

Had an excellent autumnal Shave this morning courtesy of Paul @Blademonkey . He like me was the owner of an ATT SE-G that for some reason did not deliver a good Shave, so he modded his base plate so the Razor worked. He kindly lent me the base plate, which I have been using in my Razor.

I have had some some great Shaves with it , but today aided by a super Lather
I probably had my best ever Shave with this modded Razor. I think perhaps my handling of it also has improved too, it does normally take a number of Shaves
to dial in to a Razor new to you. How many folk have discounted a Razor and come back to it later and declare it the" dogs danglies".

Thanks all

We have unexpectedly been entertained by the Ayr air show this afternoon.
We are located right on the coast and The Red Arrows made multiple low fly passes directly over head.
A cracking start to our week !

It's a great part of the country @Paul L!

Looks like the weather is improving for you all too, fingers crossed!
