@Mark1966 if you sit backwards on that toilet you could shit and shave at the same time. AND call for room service

That's what the blow dryers for.

Not the towel at least?

It’s wrapped in white and green on bench....
Not exactly the most ergonomically designed bath room having to twist 180 degrees for a sheet of bum tissue....​

Strewth mate, I thought I got to stay in some 'glamour' spots(dives) some times. There should be a 'glamour shave of the week' prize for this.

Ah you are right - well, @LukehGee's solution of a reverse kanga may be the best position.

Haha I knew there was a word for it!

Lest there be any concerns about my long term hygiene, another angle -

I think that @TomG is likely to win that prize knowing some of the places he visits!

I'm 'only' here a week ...

That’s one hell of stretch for the bum tissue....
By the time I’ve reached the roll I would have wiped myself clean on the seat....

Razor: Edwin Jagger DE89 with Ikon Bamboo Handle
Blade: Derby Extra (1)
Post-shave: Alum,Thayers Witch Hazel- Cucumber with Tea Tree Oil, Styptic, APR Ozymandias Splash & EDP

OMG this soap and frag is amazing........I wanted to try a more mild shave and got a DFS three pass shave with a little irritation on the last pass from poor technique, a little nick I didn't even notice till after putting on the thayers. Over all was happy with this shave.

Brush: maggard synth
Blade:7 oclock yellow
Razor: 6s
Soap:b&m patches
Splash: b&m sinfonia
Not the biggest fan of overtly floral scents and this after shave has sat for a few months without being touched after the initial sniff.today I thought bugger it I'll wear it anyway. After the initial dry down the floral scent is muted somewhat leaving a softer scent that is pleasant and not overpowering.i may come around to it after all.

 

[Rider_159]

Pre: Warm water
Razor: Muhle Rocca
Blade: Astra SP (1)
Brush: TSW Silvertip
Soap: Wholly Kaw Man from Mayfair
Post: APR Fenchurch, TSW After Balm

This razor really is efficient, maybe too much so as I re-opened an old nick on my neck. Well at least I can enjoy the lingering Fenchurch scent for the remainder of the day.
