SOTD 10-16 January 2016

Hmmm.......Chiseled Face Trade Winds , nice , rugged , manly scent but the lather kind of died on me tonight.
2nd use of the PAL Injector Adjustable and as a consequence the Chinese made Schick Injector blade and it was smoother than the first shave and it felt almost as if there wasn't a blade in it when on the flat and smooth parts of the face. It lets me down a bit on the neck and is a bit rough on the chin so far at these early stages but an enjoyable piece of kit . Just look at the thing , it looks like something Captain James T Kirk of the Starship Enterprise would use.
I never seem to have much luck with samples, I don't know why that is?

R.I.P. David Bowie

This SOTD was actually from Saturday morning when I was experimenting with attempting to include a screenshot from David's recent Black Star video in with my SOTD. I didn't use it in the end but thought I'd show it today on this sad morning.
For me, not so much a black star as a multicoloured, multifaceted star shining to the very last.

RIP David Bowie
David Bowie was one of the most innovative and creative artists. He totally embodied the idea of "if at first you don't succeed, try try again." He never gave up and never rested on his laurels. A true inspiration.
