Christmas Day Greetings,


As on all christmas day's since i was a kid, i've always been A early riser due to the festive excitement, now it's my ageing body clock.

Maiden shave with the new wilkinson sword classic TTO razor, which was one of my pressies from my wonderful siblings.The verdict?

A wonderful smooth shaver, which paired up excellently with the bolzano superinox,slicing through my stubble effortlessly resulting in a wonderful near bbs 3 pass + pick ups silky smooth christmas day shave with no errors to report,adding to that the APS Shaving CO Cashmere Synthetic brush, is the most softest synthetic brush in my shaving den, it's like stroking my face with a fluffy cloud, but still has a good amount of backbone, ideal for face & bowl lathering..A superb christmas day shave.

Finishing the shave off with a few generous splashes of 4711 ~ Cologne ASL.

later,but soon i'll be venturing out to the family gathering to prepare the christmas dinner,'My multi tasking-skills come in useful at certain times' and take part in the festive activities, then after that i'll be catching up on some well earned rest, and start my Robert Rankin book collection which i've had for a while..I'll be kicking off with ' The hollow chocolate bunnies of the apocalypse '.

I wish every member of TSR a merry christmas,have a good safe pleasurable day whatever you maybe doing.

Enjoy your christmas day, ladies & gentlemen.:)

Christmas Day shave

Bulldog Sensitive Face Wash
Castle Forbes Lime cream
Executive Shaving handmade bowl
Razorock Bruce brush
Razorock Game Changer 0.68
Gillette Silver Blue

Nice drama free 2 pass shave, all going swimmingly until managed to slice my thumb and take a chunk out of a towel as I placed my stuff onto it to dry. Just goes to show, even with covered blade tabs, watch what you're doing!
