Well the first flight out to BNE yesterday was followed by the flight home being delayed as a result of problems in SYD. I'd already been pushed back from the 1630 to 2000 but that left later still and it was about 2300 when I got home - in tim to turn around and do SYD today ...

Glad the wind issues seem to be solved - and a great shave under my belt!

Another big dollop of TOBS and lather was great! The Karve C provided a touch less aggression than the 37c did yesterday but very close as is typical.
Ended with some witch Hazel and a bit of Stirling balm. Love the scent in the MITA.

Down in Adelaide for a week picking up a puppy for the daughter and visiting family and friends.
Traveled light, still reaping the benefits of trading Simpsons Creams with Tullfan. Gave me reason to use the SJOL post-shave gels.
Really noticed the effect of harder water when lathering.

Welcome return to the Slim after trialing the Progress for a few weeks.

I get the same if I right click and "Copy link address" and have to select the image and then use the BBCode to avoid imgur borders
