Thanks Richard. Wonderful lather, as always.Thu 29
Soap & Aftershave Signature Soaps Hibernia
Brush Yaqi 24mm Green Mink
Razor Joseph Rodgers 5/8
Another epic lather from this soap and the matching splash smells wonderfully refreshing.
The razor turned a little rusty after the last trip to the beach but the edge is still good. No more straight shaving on the beach!

I couldn’t get the Feather Lite ( Green ) to work but i never tried the other settings.Thursday 29th August
OREN time again, using this razor, which incidentally I love for its simplicity, can be a bit of a challenge. According to OREN, it isn’t compatible with all AC blades. And indeed today to use a Schick B30 I had to slightly shorten its length because it was just too long to fit in the head. The OREN has three settings requiring the use of one of three separate cap pieces which are conveniently engraved with one dot, two dots, or three dots the latter being the more aggressive. Getting the balance right between the correct cap and blade has been an interesting learning curve. Feather pro guard works well with the 3 dot whereas the Schick B30 seems to be better with the 2 dot. Keep up at the back there fellas. anyway I can understand why the OREN ceased production which makes it a rare beast today but certainly with some perseverance is actually quite a joy to use.
The soap is Bath Houses Bergamot and Amber The brush is an omega bristle, incredibly cheap but very effective and the pot a repro 19th century ceramic item which the block of soap fitted perfectly.
Bbs in two passes and pick ups.
Enjoy the day fellas!
