Thank, Zynn!
Things are going as well as could be hoped. It's a lovely day here today, so I stuck her in the garden in the sun with a big ice cream.
The downstairs "shave den" is workable but it does take some of the fun out of the experience. I am actually thinking about putting a mirror in the kitchen and shaving there instead:
- Full sized sink instead of a little hand sink
- Sink at a sensible height
- Plenty of worktop space either side to lay out my gear
- Natural light from the big windows
- New floor, which is actually flat instead of like standing on cobbles
There's a lot to recommend it!
My shave spot is odd.
The sink is in our dorm room, but no bathroom just a sink. It sits low and is a small sink but lots of room on the counters. Not a ton of light but it is enough to shave. Limited storage sadly. I feel bad as my roommate has to watch me shave every night. The overflow drain is also broken so I have to watch the water levels. Also carpet below the sink... I try not to think about it too much.

Clearly, I should count my blessings that my sink is fully functional!
When you get your own space to shave, you will feel like a bona fide king. Something to look forward to!
My grandfather shaved in the kitchen. I think it was a common thing back when you had to heat up water on the stove.

For context this is my sink. Not terrible but not great.
I use the boiler on the left since the tap doesn't get too hot
That looks a 1000x more tidy than my counter. I am spread all over it even around the sink. Good thing I live alone. You can tell my overall mental health from my surroundings.
Holy cow, you guys have a counter? you are blessed ;-)
My counter is large enough for two sinks, but, only has one. A lot of space. I am still spread all over it. You can tell until recently I didn't have a shelf for my shave gear and software. Since I have I still haven't unpacked all my boxes or used the stuff I have unpacked.
Only because it has to be...
Actually one of the rules is we can have a soap dish (with soap in it) out on our counter so I proudly display my Captain's Choice bowl with a rubber ducky soap. That way the bowl stays safe and I am not worried about it breaking when I put it away (plus it is a pretty bowl)
I fear we're heading into python territory..." You were lucky! When I was a wee lad we used to live I a shoe box..."
