Made ya a cake, happy burp-day!


 
Mixed bag tonight for the shave. Not sure if it was the soap, bowl lathering instead of face lathering or my prep wasn’t good enough. I probably changed too many variables to pin it down. Still ended up with a smooth face at the end but it wasn’t comfortable. At least with this hobby the next shave isn’t too far away.

It's a fish I think - Stainless Mongoose
Where is the tractor? - Feather Professional
Where, what? - AP Shaving 24mm Cashmere
Erm? - Extro Arzachena soap
I dunno - Extro Arzachena splash

A morning at home gave me the chance to shave with something different to my takeaway gear here on the boat. Nothing new really, just good old trusted accoutrements which have well proven their worth. I am starting to think, 'May be the Mongoose is my God razor'.

A super bit of bathroom time with super results and I am left with a super refreshed feeling. Just in time to return to the art of tugging and pulling things off.

I did forget to take a photo so I have kind of superimposed three from my past SOTD's in an abstract kind of way. Or in basic terms 'any old shit will do'.

And the abstract Midori to end things on
