February 2022 Gentlemanly Restraint Until Month End (GRUME)

Still in, head shave. Another very good shave this morning. Working through a tuck of Falcon's, which should take me to month end. The cream should last until probably the end of March, so I'll use it for the FFMM.

As those of you who were in the January restraint may recall, back in January I accidently dropped my Beagle thus causing its death.. :scared::crying:

And thanks to the wonderfull Bernd at Shavemac, and the relpacement handle that he sent me, its back from the dead. :thumbup:

I have glued the salvaged knot from the old Beagle into the replacement handle using Loctite all purpose adhesive and so far it seems to be holding.

Edit: Oh and I'm still in, todays shave was a quick wtg & xtg with my Fatboy @settinng 5 & Prosasso Green.

Still in
Pre-Shave: Hot Shower
Soap: Signature Soaps Hibernian
Brush: Omega S-Brush
Razor: Rockwell 6C (4)
Blade: Personna Platinum
Post-Shave: Alum Block
Acqua Velva Ice Blue AS splash
TONS Eton College AS cream
Castle Forbes Vetiver EDP

Had a sample of the Signature soap lying around so took it for a spin. Wow what a surprise. Nice slick lather led to a lovely BBS shave. Nice summery scent which paired nicely with TOBS Eaton College aftershave cream. Couple of weepers with the Personna blade but nothing to worry about. Stay safe fellas

Found a box of fountain pens in storage that I hadn't used in over 10 years. Trying to clean them up. Now I need ink. Grume doesn't stop unnecessary spending it merely redirects it! View attachment 1406378
I intend to get in this hobby next. Need to get a good starter pen and some ink. I have been scouring The Nib but most of the stuff seems beyond my current desire to spend.
 
I’ve been so busy, unable to come onto B&B for the last few weeks. No purchases this year as I’m in the GRUYERE, so I’ll join in the fun for the rest of the month with you fine gents 👍
