So the Sangre de Drago is finished and today was a celebratory shave. Three very nice passes and I am BBS for the win! As an added bonus, I smell very nice. Life is good!

Another very nice shave today and I did mix things up a wee bit. I did another lunchtime shave, just because I was working from home. Stirling whipped up a nice and fragrant lather.

20 laps on linen and 40 on leather and it was go time. I went with my standard three passes of WTG, XTG and ATG with no drama to report. Three slow passes and I am BBS for the win! Followed that up with a healthy splash of the aftershave and everything was right as rain! You know it. Thank goodness it’s Friday. Life is good!
