No great plans for today, so portioned up the Rooster leftovers for freezing and all done by 9. As SWMBO was going to watch Guys & Dolls ( again ), I decided to have a leisurely Shave and it really was ,and as a result I was rewarded with a superb close all round finish.

Prep: Valobra Glycerlanolina soap, Myrsol Emulsion
Brush: Tony Forsyth P&C LE 2020 Matilda Rhodium 2-band Silvertip Badger
Soap: Proraso Green + 3 Stirling Frost Drops
Razor: Blackland Blackbird
Blade: Vintage NOS Schick Plus Platinum (1)
Post: Thayers Cucumber Witch Hazel, Proraso Green quadruple-mentholated Aftershave Lotion

42C on Christmas Day was just a warm up; it hit 44C today on Boxing Day :oops:.
Hence, menthol was high on the agenda. And what a superb shave - the vintage Schick blade was so sharp and smooth in the Blackbird - a gentle touch and I was DFS after 2 passes, and BBS after the third.

Brush: C&H 'Longtown'
Soap: NO Firefighter
Razor: MM Clog Pruf
Blade: GEM PTFE (1)
Post: Cold Water and NO Firefighter

Another nice chilled shave this morning, smooth finish courtesy of the MM. Firefighter definitely one of my new favourites.

Now back to chowing down on a ridiculous amount of leftovers, I clearly can't gauge quantities.

Hope everyone had a great day!

Cheers

St Stephens day - Stainless Mongoose
The day after Christmas- Feather Proguard
Christmas box day - AP Shaving 24mm Cashmere
Second day of Christmastide - Murdock something

Boxing day. So named because people generally get hammered. Have a fight. And end up in the box sometime in the New Year.

Boxing day

And a great day to have a most smashing shave. I prefer a Feather Professional for an outright finish but the Proguard certainly does smooth in a very smooth way.


Pre fight drinking

Let's end and let's go with The Let's Go's. Super smashing
