I have been away for a while; backproblems, neckproblems and later on a broken ankle that wouldn't heal properly made shaving to a chore and there was just no fun posting about that. But some operations later things started to improve a bit and this year shaving became fun again, the 'wellness' experience it used to be; from once a month because I had to I am back on three times a week because I want to.
In the past years I didn't buy much stuff obviously. Some razors I couldn't resist (Fatip slants and the mk.2 OC, couple of Razorock aluminium razors, and the PAA Blue Ghost because their bakelite OC slant was so freakingly good) and well, some blades when the deal was too good to let pass.
But this year I started to poke around here again, answered to a few threads and suddenly I am also awaiting 7 razors and a brush on their way to me, just like that! Nothing very expensive (well, once the shipment and taxes were added to 'my' two birthyear Techs it wasn't cheap either) but all the usual AD's flaired up again. I am still hoovering my finger over the 'order' button on some 600 blades, I really didn't need a new brush (but it was such a cute Century travel brush (NOS) in badger (the US equivalent of the Wee Scot) for just a tenner) and did I really need them razors?
Yes apparantly, I did. Like the title says, there is just no cure is there? The feever can be controled most of the time but when you think you are cured it hits you again with full strenght. Lovely little disease!
