Thank you David
This new approach to the SOTD is producing such an array of fine photos, there are just too many to comment upon individually. To say they are all brilliant is an understatement.

I have already taken Fridays shot, humm is that cheating
Pre-Shave: Hot shower
Brush: 24mm Morris & Forndran Blonde Badger
Razor: 7/8" Giesen & Forsthoff Decorated back, Full Hollow Ground, Spike Point
Strop: 40/60 laps (Torolf linen / SRD Premium IV leather)
Überlather: Floris № 89 Shave Creme + Floris № 89 Shave Soap + Glycerin
Toner: Thayer's Witch Hazel (Rose Petal, no alcohol)
Moisturizer: Trumper's Fragrance-free Moisturizer
After Shave Splash: Truefitt & Hill "Spanish Leather" AS
After Shave Balm: Truefitt & Hill "Trafalgar" ASB
Results: It is rather hard to beat a shave with the M&M, but I consider today's pretty darn good. The lather from the Floris was bountiful and fabulous :tu. Love the scent of № 89. Riddled in a mix of [bergamot, lavender, neroli, nutmeg, orange, petitgrain, geranium, rose, ylang ylang, cedarwood, musk, oakmoss, sandalwood, and vetiver], this English soap doesn't receive the praise it deserves and it certainly knows no bounds when it comes to quality. It couples perfectly with the Morris & Forndran brush. The G&F had an easy time today; not a lot of whiskers to clean up considering yesterday's wonderful shave with my M&M. Nevertheless, I went all out and feel BBS and super smooth. Happy face = Happy me :y.
Have an ABSOLUTELY AMAZING Wednesday gentlemen:tu. My thoughts are with the folks living in tornado stricken areas of the US.
