Quality swearing Iain. Swearing is big and it is clever.
 
Great post, Iain. No one swears as adroitly as a pissed off Scotsman.

Lea Classic soap
Mongoose B3
Schick Proline [ 3 ]
Lea Classic A/S Lotion

After a very good close Shave yesterday, there was not much for the Mongoose to clear. A very smooth comfortable quick Shave, with an excellent close all round finish. As good as the Shaves are I still need a Daily Shave as after 30 hours the whiskers come to the fore.

After the somewhat rough shave yesterday l swapped the Ladas blade into what is for me a notably smooth razor. The 70th Anniversary soap lathered up beautifully with the Omega brush, but, the shave was no less “rough” than yesterday's! It has to be a defective blade. The two pass shave was completed without drama, no cuts, no nicks, no weepers, and the shave was close enough, but it just felt “rough”. Finished the shave with matching aftershave lotion and felt good, for the day ahead. I will change the blade only tomorrow and see if it is the blade ...or me.
