Guido, you are everywhere! I had not dropped by the Daily Double thread in quite some time, fancy meeting you here. Do you have a template for producing your very nicely formatted posts?

Guido, you are everywhere! I had not dropped by the Daily Double thread in quite some time, fancy meeting you here. Do you have a template for producing your very nicely formatted posts?

Hey Rico!

A template not really. I had one post that worked regarding the borders around my tables, so what I do is copy one of my posts and change the layout as needed.

Copy and paste from Word doesn’t fly too well with the forum architecture and sometimes sends threads into chaos for the mods.

So I would take one of my posts above and then add or change columns and rows. The table function in the OST menu works too of course. Only without borders as far as I know.

Cheers,

Guido

Between elbow tendinitis and skiing, lately it has been quick shaves using primarily tube cream and finger lathering. It felt great to do a proper double today. Hey, @Guido75 thanks for keeping the flame burning!

 

[Guido75]

Of course John!

I had imagined you were in your skiing season so I am kind of surprised you shaved at all! Haha! But it’s great to see you back in action again. I do hope that elbow will sort itself out soon for you!

Give my best to Adam by the way!

Will do. Adam is unfortunately in bed with a bad cold. Otherwise we might be taking a fitness walk together right now.

Just came back from mine with the LOTH. Too bad about Adam…wishing him well!

Inspired by Guido, I join the DD. Todays razors are a Tatara Amakuni w Feather Pro, and Lamda Athena w Astra blade. The soap, Noir, is a dark cologne scent featuring strong licorice notes and hi performance lather. This pairs wonderfully with Dapper Dragon 'Black Dragon', not shown.

 

[Guido75]

Welcome Rico! Great entry gear for sure!

Fabulous brush by the way @Rico Suave!

Todays DD: Razorock Super Slant level 1 and Karve Christopher Bradley A plate, both with Perma Sharp blades. The brush is an AP Shaveco uBrush, cashmere fibre. It is the brush that sold me on synths.
