Nice shave again ...

Went to ADL yesterday. Had my cross border declaration completed, flight was greeted by a phalanx of police and SES herding us to a row of more than 60 people sitting at tables to make an assessment as to whether to let us in. Showed ID, said I'd not been overseas and did have COVID symptoms (no temp check BTW) and the process done, I'm allowed to enter SA! Handed the item below and told to show to the police at the exit door ...

Admit One to SA - priceless!

And they still let you in. Got to be a conspiracy in there somewhere....... but yeah, the 'admit one' is a nice touch.

Interesting. I moved on my 34C before I "discovered" Yellows, but back then I used to use Astra SP Green as my go-to, and now I would consider the Green a somewhat meh blade...

Had the R94 loaded with a euromax, provided a very very smooth but for me not close enough so in this razor the yellow and wizamet are king for me.. we'll see how this grows, could be a blessing in disguise if I have more growth to shave off tomorrow morning..

Absolutely love the scent of the splash!!!

Serious @Mark1966 ?

This has me really really worried about what is coming next. I hope I am wrong, and life goes back to pre covid normality.
