Now because of my leg injury I have had to resort to seated Shaves to avoid pressure on that leg , and will rely on using simple items sited near the wash hand basin. Yesterday purchased a cheap Shower chair, Mrs Mike drove for the first time in 3 years. Unfortunately a previous knee problem means that she finds clutch operation makes that knee very sore. The Shower yesterday was great, after not having one for a few days. I was able to access the shower bootless from a chair positioned near the Shower. Felt really great having not been able to shower since Monday.

Shave today was good as I have everything close at hand when seated at the wash hand basin, and the ATT SE1 does shave very well, though I did get a weeper through attention working around the chin. I think that a Shower one day with a Shave the next, may get me through this period of wearing a boot and moving around on crutches.
