Hi, my name is Mark and I just caught the bug after only 2 days of lurking. I did try shaving with my new Merkur Classic and I need to practice. I'll keep looking for info on what to try and buy.

Welcome to the B&B Mark!
There is a wealth of knowledge on this site as well as some very helpful people here! Don't be shy and ask away!"There are some things which cannot be learned quickly, and time, which is all we have, must be paid heavily for their acquiring. They are simple things, and because it takes a man's life to know them, the little new that each man gets from life is very costly and the only heritage he has to leave".-E. Hemingway]

Welcome Mark. Just take it slow when you're learning your razor.
Chris
Razor: Switched to the Merkur Slant full time, (I'm now an official "Slant Man")
Blade: Crystals
Brush: Shavemac 177 Silvertip
[B]Best Lather setup for me:[/B]
Soap: HoneyBee Spa "Coconut" or "Lime"
Cream: Geo F Trumpers "Coconut" or "Lime"
(Soap + Cream = Super-Lather and makes me have dirty thoughts about my lather)
AS: Nivea after shave balm (most soothing on my skin I've found)
