Yum yum, and the blubber works wonders against this cold snap
Ha ha - dolphins are bastards - okay they look a bit smiley and they condescend to swim with disabled children now and again - but equally they harass and attack porpoises - problematic plural, it ought to be porpae but isn't - on a routine basis. I'm finished with dolphins - strictly whales from now on. I'll see your dolphin blubber and raise you. Ha ha. yours - I.
I don't think they intend to do it on porpoise.

People in glass houses etc. We can't really point the finger, how many animals have we hunted to extinction?
Not to mention our attempts to commit genocide on other members of our own species.

Greetings All,
Monday shave.
One growth and warm shave
Preparation – Showered then face washed with Clique Liquid facial soap (mild)
Pre: None
Soap: Molton Broan Shaving Soap
Razor: Gillette Thin Adjustable (Setting 5)
Blade: Shark SS (1st)
Brush: RazoRock 400 (face lather)
Post Shave: Hot then cold water rinse, Alum, Nivea Sensitive Cooling followed by Michael Kors EDT AS.
Now that was much, much, much better. Still a bit tender on the neck but 1,000% better than yesterday's blood bath. Also, even though I read @Digimonkey's post after the event, I did stick to one setting throughout the shave and it did feel more comfortable - so will definitely try that again.
I believe it was a combination of residue irritation from Saturday shave and maybe a dodgy blade (first one so not bad) cause Monday's horrorshow.
Big THANK YOU to this wonderful community – I have had offers from you kind folk to try Astra SP's so very much looking forward to using them - thanks to @Barry Giddens and @Digimonkey
Cheers,
Brian

First go with the Mergress. A hefty, long razor it is too. It's less head-heavy than the Parker Variant which I'm a big fan of but I think the shave was marginally marred by a slightly duff blade. It was truly stuck in its wax paper and it's not unforeseeable that I dulled the edge slightly. The shave was okay considering and I managed two passes with 3 weepers. The Club Cola balm did a good job of soothing matters! I think another couple of uses of this razor are in order. (@Blackmass)
Who's next?!
P.s. spot the sneaky Schnoodle!

Thanks for the tag Ben. Looks like the shave was inconclusive this time around. Hope it improves on the next one.
Looks like Schnoodle is a Christmas Ninja.

Definitely an inconclusive one! I'll let you know how I get on with it over the next couple of shaves for sure.Oh goodness yes, she's vicious and cunning, ready to strike at any given moment!
