Aquisitions - October 2024

[Sandpaper]

It's hands down the best Tobacco scent you will come across.

Oh dear. I was trying to make a rule that I’d buy no more til I’d used up a few. Maybe even 1 in 1 out but this kind of response doesn’t help. I just won loads in a PIF so have even more to get through. I’m fooling myself, I’m making excuses…. I need to purchase ASAP

 

[Sandpaper]

Maybe a purchase

Dear daughter, pls reconsider going to university next year. Dad cannot help with the costs… these degree apprenticeships look good……

Floris No.127 as recommended by @isaiah53
He has never got a scent recommendation wrong yet. Think we are both Floris fans which helps.

Made up and a cracking scent right down my Jermyn Street

These three little beauties turned up this morning courtesy of @gile at Highlander.
3 Vintage handles re-knotted by the main man himself
I have to say they look better in person

GFT coconut was my first proper cream, difficult not to get a decent lather. I was using Wilkinson blue bowl soap before that, which was enough to get me hooked.

Some lovely NOS blister packed English Wilkinson Sword blades!

Interestingly, on the '2 blades free' pack there are two full size plastic dispensers so I don't know if they've put six in each dispenser or two in one and ten in the other, or some other combination.
OK, probably wasn't that interesting, except to me.
I am not planning to open the pack anytime soon so it may remain a mystery to me

Just got this off the Dark Web (Ebay)

It’s a large, uncompromising lump of plastic but looks like it will do the job better than my father-in-law’s blue plastic NHS denture tub. I will hide this hideous carbuncle in the cabinet between shaves.

I rather like the classy ceramic versions you can get from the usual shaving emporia, but I can’t trust myself not to drop the damn thing on the tiled floor.

If it doesn’t work I’m going to paint it white and use it as a Star Wars Stormtrooper helmet for a Christmas fancy dress party.

The shaving obsession leads one down all kinds of fascinating avenues.

Pip pip!

That is a belter and better than the dog bowl I bought

Schroedinger's Blade Dispenser?

 

[NotTheStig]

Schroedinger's Blade Dispenser?

Maybe no blades exist until I observe them to exist.
Or quantum blades: the very act of observance changes their characteristics!

 

[AlPeds]

It’s lovely stuff! There is an underlying sheep-y smell, but I don’t mind that myself

You'll open the packet one day and instead of blades there will be cards with the following message printed.

'You'll regret this Carl"
