Shave of the day Saturday 9th Sept - Friday 15th Sept 2017

I've not posted for a couple of weeks as "real life" has recently taken over.
I had to say goodbye to my closest and loyal friend, Basher, my Staffordshire Bull Terrier.
He had an ongoing stomach problem that we were managing with medication for around eighteen months.
On the night of August 24th the poor boy took a turn for the worse. We took him to the vets the following day and the news wasn't good. We had to make the decision to let him go.
The void that is left in my life is enormous, and impossible to put in to words.
I need to try to get back to some normal semblance of life, so I've decided to start posting again.

Today's very trivial shave. . . . .

Hi Paul, I am very sorry for your loss. I don't know what to say, I wish I had the right words to comfort you. :(

Sad news Paul,I know what your going through and it's not easy.

Glad to see you back posting mate
 
Tuesday's shave

Pre-shave - Warm shower, Wright's Cold Tar Soap face wash, followed by Proraso (Green) Pre-shave Cream.
Razor - Blackland Sabre-SE.
Blade - GEM PTFE (Day 3).
Soap - Proraso Green Shaving Soap.
Bowl - Little Wren.
Brush - Simpsons Duke 2 Best Badger.
Post shave - Proraso (Green) Aftershave Splash, followed by Proraso (Green) After Shave Balm.

A very enjoyable shave today enjoyed the hardware and software :). A 2 pass shave and BBS (was out last night, which was a good excuse to have a quick one pass tidy up with the Sabre-SE - less effort required this morning).

Very good audio feedback from the Sabre this morning.

All the best,

Chris

Tuesday 12th SEptember
De Vergulde Hand Stick
YaQi Tuxedo
Rocnel SE-P Open Comb
½ Supermax Blue Diamond #1
Alum Wash
Blue Stratos A/S
Lacura Aq Cream Moisturiser

A nice change, face lathering soap applied to the face from the stick. And what a pleasant experience it was. Really handy having a large base to hold, so no slippery soap to handle. The soft tips of the YaQi brush felt great on the face and lathered really well. Using the weight of the Rocnel to do the work, the shave produced was very enjoyable.

Hope yours were also!!!

No need to thank us my good man - devastating news, my heartfelt condolences. Bear in mind the good times you had with your best friend and savour them always. He sure is a handsome boy.

Edit: I, like many others here, have been touched with the loss of a canine companion of 13 years. Very hard for us (as a family) to make the decision but the kindest option. If you need to chat at all, you're always welcome to drop me a PM.
