Maybe some where wondering where I have been. Four weeks ago I had major hip replacement. Currently I am about 75% better. I am in the therapy faze and it will take about another two months to fully recover. My shaves where every couple of days but increasing now to almost every day. I use minimal hardware.

11-28

For Thanksgiving I went Old School and returned to my vintage Shulton "Old Spice" shave soap, AS & EdC. Thought it would go well with the luncheon with the in-laws. I was right! Got several compliments. Great scent and excellent lather built with the Simpson "Chubby" 1 Silvertip Badger brush for two passes (plus touch-up) with the '58 Gillette English No.58. Gotta say, this razor is rapidly becoming one of my favorites! I finished with a splash of Quinn's Pink Grapefruit & Orange Rind witch hazel, followed by the matching splash and EdC

Broke out the seasonal Christmas / Winter scents yesterday and today I decided to go with Barrister & Mann "Nordost" soap and AS. Fantastic scent (one of my wife's faves) and excellent lather built with the Riva Brushes Silvertip Badger brush for two passes (plus touch-up) with the '58 Gillette English No.58 (yesterday's have was so good I decided to stick with it for today), and I finished with a splash of Quinn's Pink Grapefruit & Orange Rind witch hazel, followed by the matching aftershave splash.
