Beautiful - congratulations!
Now where is mine AusFarce???

Yes! Yours should have beaten mine home by a couple of days!
I'll be hunting for a 28mm S type (pending @alfredus' review) in the December release so hands off everyone!

Pick up a tub of Baskerville by Phoenix and Beau. Arrived home to find it sitting in my drive way OUTSIDE of the envelope. Someone must have seen it walking past and ripped it open and then was disappointed to only find soap so dumped it.

Happy camper here.

Whilst the butterscotch is one of the plainer colour choices Paladin has the nicest faux butterscotch around IMO. Now I just need to get a purple haze computer Paladin in to the collection and I will be even happier!

And apparently I can't upload the photos from my phone.....

Arrived this morning, initial impressions are very positive. Looking forward to trying them out!

Mail Call 1:15pm:- Today I received from US from Stirling Soap Co.
1 Stirling Barbershop Shaving Soap in a green tub and looking forward to shave this afternoon
1 Refill Stirling Barbershop Shaving Soap
1 Stirling Finest Badger Shave Brush - 24/54mm for my brother
1 Stirling Synthetic Shave Brush - 24/51mm for me this brush feels a lot better than a 24/57mm RazoRock Plissoft Synthetic, I'm going to use the new brush this afternoon and I know is not going to be a bit floppy than a 57mm loft and I can tell it just right and perfect I'm very happy today

And I'm hoping another package while arrived this afternoon from RazorRock a Wunderbar Slant before I start shaving this afternoon

Very exciting delivery today. Wolfman WR1-OC on a WRH-2 handle. Something that I have wanted for a while but never thought I would be able to obtain so soon. The pictures do not do this razor justice a all. The machining and the finish are second to none. Cannot wait to give this baby a spin in the morning.

@nsavage is that a razor hone on the background?
