    Saturday where appropriate - to the barbers for a proper close shave.

    Lovely job.
    M - you shave I thought that you really looked like a Classical King of Old - Guess not.

    Wilki Sword Quattro with Gilette foaming gel v. good, v. quick and v. smooth (for the ladies) but don't use a blade for too long or it does tend to peel the skin off.
    Faster, faster, faster, until the thrill of speed overcomes the fear of death.

    Patience is something you admire in the driver behind you and scorn in the one ahead.

      Reading this with a face full of Gillette Gel (sensitive skin version) soaking in ready to be whipped off with a Mach 3.

      One good thing about being benched is can grow a weeks stubble, lot easier to do that than shaving everyday, and less annoying to the skin.

        any ideas, experience gratefully received. and apologies if it's been done before.

            Just a thought, but you are talking about shaving your "chops" and not your "meat and two veg", right?

                I use oil as a beard softener and lubricant and then shave using some great razors made out of recycled yogurt pots. They just seem to fit nicely in my had, much better than the gilette ones. Using oil has the nice advantage of actually being able to see where you are shaving, not where you have shaved.
