Good morning Cadre! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

Fantastic shave this morning. Had a different one all planned out but changed at the last moment for a Bay Rum fix. Phoenix Shaving's Atomic Age Bay Rum is one of the best out there. Thick, slick, fragrant lather for three passes and I finished with the matching splash and EdP.

Hope you have a great day. :)

The last surviving clipper ship, the Cutty Sark, was launched on this date in 1869
And I put together a plastic model of it, painted and with rigging and sails and all, at a work bench in our garage, when I was around 10 years old. What an ordeal.

Hello Cadre! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

Went old school for today's shave. Excellent lather from the Cooper & French soap. Two passes (+ touch up) for a DFS+ result and I finished with a splash of vintage Shulton "Old Spice" after shave and a spray of P&G "Old Spice".

Hope you have a great day. :)
