Please allow me to introduce myself: Avoid the temptation to burst into 'Sympathy for the Devil'. I'm a 'born again' DE shaver after reading a piece in the Sunday Times. I am old enough to have used a DE for the 1st years of my shaving life, but switched to a twin blade when they were introduced. Since then I have slid in a downwards spiral to using disposables and canned gel. I decided to get a grip on myself and return to shaving as a pleasure rather than a chore and I'm amazed to see that there are so many like minded out there.

I'm still very much in the experimenting stage, but at the moment I'm using -

Tai chi, playing and listening to many kinds of music, football, drinking real beer
