Happy BirthdayI’ve decided not to shave today as yesterday’s rasp was so close and comfortable that my stubble is cowering in fear in their little follicular homes. However, here’s my birthday SotD from exactly ten years ago today:

That’s the same tatty old brush I still use today but I haven’t a clue what the soap is. The razor is a Gillette #77 which I recently moved on as it is a touch too much for my gentle features. Oh I do love that particular flavour of TOBS.
Have a grand day folks - I’ve scoffed a box of chocs already!
PS. Matron got me a pair of shorts for my birthday - she struggled to find a supplier that would issue a size with sufficient X’s before the L but eventually found success with a hessian sack maker.
And Happy Birthday to you too...Many happy returns Graeme from a fellow birthday recipient.

Do you think the Japanese ladies would play the Liverpool Empire? don’t understand why the Japanese birth rate is in steep decline
@ekeko Didn’t know I’d put up my prices you’d lose two arms and a leg to pay for a Mdc soap!!!Wednesday 109 April (see, typing left handed)
Here’s the reason why, as explained yesterday

Brush is re-knotted bristle into silver travel brush dating to 1833, according to hallmarks. Which at 190 years makes it only very slightly older than me
The knot is a 16mm fine bristle which I got from a US supplier, The Golden Nib. Thanks to @TobyC
Soap is a sample puck and I love it’s scent, nice and easy to apply. Might have to sell my left hand to afford a full pot though
Blade is an Astra Superior Platinum, second use.
BBS finish after two passes and minor pick ups, no irritation or weepers.
Morning joy!!
Have a great evening fellas!
