Thank you. It's amazing what an app can do. I kind of like it and will play with it some more.

I like playing with them myself. Sometimes I'll combine them.

Ah, the array at attention, saluting the presence of the Multitudinous Lime. Amazing how the Red Imp can puts a little joie de vivre in the ole shave pic, Erich.

Man that was heavenly! One of my most enjoyable shaves ever!

 

[ronweston]

Thanks Ron. I have been feeling under the weather and a bit out of it this past week. I broke in a new Gillette New OC this morning and tomorrow I will finally get to try my Charcoal Goods Razor! I received the level 2 head today, so I now have a complete razor!
Steve

Hope you feel better soon, Steve. Maybe the CG will lift the spirits a bit. I was going to use mine for Friday's shave but I remembered I had promised to participate in a Frugal Friday SOTD; the Charcoal Goods wouldn't quite fit in.... But Saturday will be the day!

Steve, from that angle your arrayment indicates a readiness to enter the fray. The CG looks great at the ready.

Excellent retrospective, with a modern touch, shave pic, Jamie. And I'm still wondering at the smile on the Spice label. Do love that Fatboy.
