That was my daily go-to for a long time but lately, I've really been enjoying the shaves I get from my trusty, nimble pre-war Elwell garden trowel.

Somewhere a groundbreaking ceremony is on hold. That is the shiniest shovel ever! Can't aford razors, but this nifty silver plated shovel should do the trick. :wink:

Hmmm --- I guess his mother went into labour in the fields the day he was born, and picked herself up after the blessed event and went right back to work as well?

He said: "Razors are an expensive, unnecessary luxury. My grandfather told me that during the war he used to shave using anything.

No wonder they won at Stalingrad, the Wehrmacht ran out of razor blades and went home.

I heard shovel shaving causes ingrowns so I did not give in to the temptation.

RAD is bad enough without having a bunch of shovels hanging in my bathroom!
