I was not looking forward to this shave. 2.5 days of growth and a razor I'm not enjoying. The initial plan was to use a brushless cream as the right side of my face is a little sore from dental surgery yesterday but the sample pot of Brickell in my cabinet had dried out. A quick grab of things to hand resulted in the list above.

It turned out that the brush was fine to use on my face. It also turned out to be an excellent shave. What a difference a blade can make. I'm really happy with the finish delivered and Skippy was like a hot knife through butter.

Today I woke up at 2 a.m. and shaved at 3 a.m.!

I felt like using powdery scents, so, also for ethnic continuity, I chose another Dutch soap, the De Vergulde Hand, often accused of bad post shave, it has, instead, turned out to be not only very satisfactory in terms of smoothness, but it also left my skin in perfect condition.

The Polsiver, which disappointed me on the Progress, was fantastic.

It was time that I did not have such a good FBBS!

And, in wet and gray weather, I just happened to light the fireplace.
The chimney was cold and I had the studio overflowing with smoke: I felt like a terrorist that had to be flushed out by the SWAT!
