October 2017 Acquisitions

Still in New York City so, what the hell, I guess I can fit a few more soaps from Pasteurs Pharmacy in my suitcase.
Stirling Soap's - Island Man.
Barrister and Mann - Reserve Fern.
Proraso Sandalwood pre-shave cream. I'd missed this since I ran out a few months ago.
Thayers bath soap - Peppermint. Actually a very nice fresh scented soap. Thayers does it again!

A gift from my Uncle today, a Taylor Sandalwood Shave Cream and badger brush! Totally unexpected after a chat about shaving/aftershave the other day.

It also turns out that my Gran may have my Great Grandfather's shaving scuttle in a cupboard somewhere. She's going to try and find it and pass it on to me.

TOBS Sandalwood - a desert island favorite!

Taylor Sandalwood is great, I use it all the time, but who would shave on a desert island?

Guys who take pride in their appearance for the coconuts?

I was going to say 'or Wilson', but I guess Tom Hanks didn't actually care that much for him!

A bottle of Red One Aftershave Balm - Marine.
The barber I go to runs his own little loyalty scheme and for every 5 haircuts you get a free hair gel, but as I don't use hair gel he let's me choose anything from his wee display case of products he sells. Previously I got an Arko stick (still waiting to be opened).

A Focus Dynamic razor. But It may be awhile before I get to try it out.

Excuse me for posting here, there and everywhere. I took receipt of a Supply SE, all 3 plates, some blades and a carry case yesterday! Looks like it's the original V1 with the loading 'issues' but I care not! They apparently shave the same as the revised V1 so cannot complain! Especially for what I paid for it

Not too much difference tbh, it will be just fine.

I'm sure that's the case! It is a trial more than anything as to whether I should fork out for the V2.0... that jet black is calling to me...
