Where has the time gone? For my 70[SUP]th[/SUP] year birthday shave I used the following:

Soap: AOS Lavender soap. My youngest son sent me this and some other AOS soaps as a BD present.
Razor: I took out my FB - a razor I bought many years ago when I was a "youngster."
B​lade: Went with an Astra today.
Brush: I dug out one of the first quality shaving brushes I bought over 30 years ago, a Hoffrtiz Badger brush.
AS: Thayers Rose Petal.

From the products used it looks like it was quite a nice shave :thumbup:

Happy Birthday Jim :happybday: :a50: :a5:

And since it is a nice round number, I'll just use this as an excuse to have a nice glass of Reserve Port :a54: As we say in Denmark when lifting our glass; Skål

never saw this thread before... Happy Birthday Jim! That many candles is quite an achievement... pretty cool to be using kit that you bought as a "youngster".
