    Would you look at that: we're in the single digits to go until the end of Austere August! It feels like yesterday that I was surprised about making it to Day 10, and now we're more than two thirds of the way through this 'challenging' gauntlet.

    It's a bit too early for the big month in review, but on brief reflection I'm pretty happy with how I've been doing so far. Good shaves, great set. Really re-discovered my love for this Aristocrat Jr, too - a beautiful piece that delivers a dang smooth shave.

    Anyway, I'm absolutely knackered. Big day today once again (sensing a pattern here?) and the celebratory drinky I poured myself on a whim is just making me sleepy.
