So this morning was a bit of a rush.... Plus the fact my wife had one of her "AM depression" (yes it's a real thing) meltdowns (2nd in a row this week).

So it was yet another quick scrape around the old Fizzog, and it was out the door.

Razor: Gillette tech aluminium handle.
Soap: Palmolive shave stick.
Blade: London Bridge. ( Liking this blade)
Post: Astra Green, then some Lidl Dark blue.

Have a good rest of the weekend chaps.

Signature - Londinium

Gotas Frescas Hombre.

It appears to be Excalibur season around these parts. I'd be churlish not to join in. A great Sunday shave but, with a supporting cast this good, I would expect nothing less. I wish you well in the coming week - saludos - I.

Sunday 8th May

Ganders Goat Soap w/Hop, Sage & Birch
Moon Soaps Sorrento Shaving Cream
Razorock 400 Limited Edition w/Plissoft Noir 24mm
Muhle Rocca Jet & Bolzano Inoxidable (Egypt) (2)
Pinaud Clubman Classic Vanilla Aftershave
Ajmal 1001 Nights (Attar)

... another nice shave with the Egyptian Bolanzo.

I like simple, straight-up, no-frills, good, honest razor blades and this is certainly one of them. Sharp, smooth (enough), good feedback from the blade, what's not to like? That said, I'd prefer a Vidyut Stainless for that everyman shave.
