Hello everyone! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

Rocking it out again this morning with a couple from the inimitable Ronnie James Dio. Hope you enjoy.



Fantastic shave this morning. Returned to TOBS "Lime Zest" cream with its tart, crisp scent and excellent lather built with the Brad Sears "Gus" 2-Band Select Badger brush for two passes (plus touch-up) with the Gillette English No.58 and I finished with a splash of Quinn's "Pink Grapefruit & Orange Rind" witch hazel toner, followed by vintage MEM "English Leather Lime" aftershave and Proraso "Azur Lime" EdC.

The "Happy Hogan" Homefront Report: A brisk 46° waling out the door this morning! Autumn has finally arrived!

Hope you have a great day. :)
