What a bummer Dave. I know the calichi you speak of and feel your pain. Its easy to think "hey, its been leaking all night the dirt should be soft" except Calichi stays hard ....or becomes the thickest, wettest glue trap in the world.

Super busy this past week, so I have been slacking in my journal, catch-ups and so forth, but did manage to get some photos of the various shaves. All good, mostly DSBBS. Hope everyone is doing well

 
Dave, is that the pic.... or is your Aqua Velva actually green?

It is actually Green, it is the Aqua Velva Sport. That vintage bottle was given to me and since I already have an original Glass bottle for the Blue, this made a good vessel for the Sport

Ah. Just making my sure it wasn’t spoiled.
 
Finally caught up on your journal, Dave! Some outstanding shaves, some less so (ThB DJMH comes to mind). I'd be interested to hear your take on A&E as well...I have yet to try their new soap base, but it's supposed to be much better than their previous base, which is one of the best in my den. Scent wise, Peter tends towards the more complex; Grecian Horse might be up your alley, as well as a couple of newer scents he's just released. "Signature" might be right in your wheelhouse.
