Thanks Freddy , it just makes everything so much slower to get done. It is like being back in the 1980's but I doubt the people responsible will be brought to justice over this. However the consequences for them should be dire since this is not simply just putting me out , it's messing with the ability of the healthcare system to provide acute care etc for very sick patients. No access to patients details or medical history etc with the exception of paper copies which can take valuable time to get particularly in the case of emergency patients.

Well sometimes one stumbles on good combinations, the Rooney and BAUME.BE is creamy yellow-cloud filtered sunshine streaming across the face - a match made in shave heaven . . .

My nephew returned my first razor; a Merkur HD which I loaded with my first blade ( after that complimentary Merkur blade ) an older blue/silver Super Iridium. I bloomed Mitchell's Wool Fat while showering and loaded my Plisson. Aftershave was a vintage bottle of Guerlain Imperial after my latest prescriptions left me sensitive to strong scents. It was fun going back to my early combination except for an upgrade in brush.

Chris, there are many reasons for going back in time.  I genuinely believe that one of them is to remember how special a particular product was and how it can now trigger a fond memory, even if the product should no longer be available.  Is that really so bad?  I think not. Winking
