You are a gentleman and a scholar.
Congratulations to you and Mrs ‘66 on the anniversary.Razor: Vintage Eclipse Red Ring
Blade: Vintage British made Wilkinson Sword (3)
Brush: Simpson LE 19/150 Jubilee shaving brush
Soap/Cream: Australian Private Reserve (APR) les généraux du grand livre shaving soap
Aftershave: Australian Private Reserve (APR) les généraux du grand livre splash
Cologne: Australian Private Reserve (APR) les généraux du grand livre EDP
Wedding anniversary today (26th), so I wanted a 'special' shave. When I looked at my drawer of soaps though this combination called to me again - hard to beat really!
Another shameless reuse of photo - not sure if 3 days in a row is acceptable @TomG ? Not sure why you are worried about rain on days 4 and 5 for the Ashes Test either really, we will not take that long to beat the Poms will we?
I am taking the day off to watch Day 1 of the Test.

Shaver Heaven "Juicy Froot" Tallow v3

Re-lather and rinse
A nice DFS+. This blade needs a bit more aggression though so will step it up for the next shave. Should have loaded more soap too... my frugal inclination is difficult to fight sometimes!

Thanks guys. Just discovered we are off to Aubergine for dinner - http://www.aubergine.com.au/site/ (We take it in turns to arrange the annual celebration)
Very, very nice!
I guess calling a restaurant "Eggplant" isn't very fancy

Razor: Guerrilla

First shave in almost a week..... Wasn't being lazy and was following Doctors requirements.
Timeless Bronze
Mike's Lime
Astra (3)
2 band Maseto Beehive
Dickinson's Witch Hazel
Zatamil 0.1% Ointment
The Timeless performed great with 5 days growth.... I managed to give myself 2 weepers but it feels good to be smooth again! 2 passes across the grain, first pass with plenty of buffing so I could enjoy the second pass. Mike's lathered up a treat but that lime smell isn't doing much for me.
Zatamil was used to calm down some funny red rash on my neck that showed up last week - Dr said no shaving until the medicine had done it's thing.... He thinks it's the recent weather that's brought it on and nothing to do with shaving or the supplies I use. Personally I think it's just me getting old!
