Big day today, I’ve got an interview!
Bit scary looking to totally change fields but it will be great I’m sure.

You will nail it mate with that combo, it will be about them realising what they are missing out on by not hiring you :)

I donno bud! The job is on Lonsdale st which, in Canberra, is hipster heaven.
That said I’m clashing a blue crosshatch shirt with a slim fit dark suit with light pinstripes. I’ll be mocked heavily when I get to my current work of cause.

PAA PRE SHAVE SOAP
ASYLUM EVOLUTION XL BRASS
PERMA-SHARP SUPER
SEMOGUE OWNER'S CLUB BOAR
CELLA
SQUADRON SCRAMBLE SPLASH

Chose a different path today and pulled out the boar and Cella. Used the "Macro" method after reading about it on Badger & Blade. Worked a treat and ended up with enough lather for a small town. Sounds very similar to the Adelaide method.

Have a nice day gents.(y)​

Lonsdale Street - wow, hipster heaven indeed mate. Hope it went well
 
almost two days without shaving on an island north east of the Apple state with nice wheather till today, when I got my "monthly shower" free of charge while boating back + 4 hours wet foot drive to hobart, so I needed some winter stuff...

Razor: Merkur 42c
blade: Gillette 7 O'clock
brush: the Chinese shynthetic
soap: APR Winterfell
splash: Floid suave
and now everything is good!

cheers
 
Brush: Vulfix 403 Mixed
Razor: Eclipse
Blade: English Wilky (3)
Soap: D.R. Harris Lavender
A/S: B&M Reserve Cool

Still loving the Eclipse. Perfect 3 pass BBS with no touch ups required. Been a while since I used the Harris soap, still as good as I remember and topped off very nicely with the B&M splash.
 
Razor: Vintage British Gillette Aristrocrat #15
Blade: Vintage NOS British Wilkinson Sword (4)
Brush: Vintage butterscotch Rooney 'Badger and Bristle' shaving brush
Soap/Cream: Officina Profumo - Farmaceutica di Santa Maria Novella Firenze, Crema da Barba
Aftershave: Officina Profumo - Farmaceutica di Santa Maria Novella Firenze, Lozione dopo Barba - Tabacco Toscano

Good to be home after a quick trip to Parkes and back (although Parkes is a lovely little town and it was a pleasant 3 1/2 hour drive each way with podcasts and music).

Last week Melbourne overnight, week before Sydney overnight, next week Sydney, Moree and Newcastle, following week Coffs Harbour and Taree and then the week after that Sydney for a couple of nights - let the great grand tour roll on!

Image taken on way home from mid SW NSW. Bit of badly needed rain about but you really need to plan your travel around the rain out here as 5mm of rain closes the roads and the 'slickness and glide' make it a little unmanageable.

Today is my last day in my current role, been a big ol mix of good n bad.
After a decade in the industry I’ll be glad to make a change, im sure my role is a few years from being a bit of software so it’s all a blessing really.
To celebrate the end, it’s black bow tie Friday. :)
