Monday:

Gillette classic Superspeed & Swedish Gillette blade
D R Harris's H3 Best Badger
Trumpers Violet ( recent/tube )
D R Harris's Pink A/S
Trumpers Spanish Leather

Well, I dunno. This stuff definately does not smell like ( or as nice as ) prior. And it doesn't seem to lather as well and copiously as before either. Yet, I can't really fault the end result; a close shave with no skin issues. Still, I'm rather dubious about buying any more, if it remains like this.

Best damn shave I've had in weeks. You get this great feeling and a glow to your skin after using a traditional straight. Fantastic.

Memorial Day:

Edwin Jagger Small Traditional Super
Trumpers Almond Shaving Cream
40s Aristorocket Jr. w/ Swede
Trumpers Coral Skin Food

I've had no hot water for two days now, so I (quite sadly) actually used my stove this morning for hot water with a scuttle. I would romanticize the parallel between this and the original use of scuttles if it werent so pathetic.
