Daily Theme - Father's Day

Been a good while since I've used GFT Eucris (if nothing else these games make me dust off a lot of my gear), it's a cracking classic scent to me. It seems oddly devisive with some finding it floral and others dark in some way, it just smells spicy (Not those ones) to me and something I imagine my grandad would have used. GFT established in 1875 definitely meets the brief being 108 years older than myself.

Along with this I picked up the Simpson Chubby 2 SiLVERTiP, a lovely brush for this cream, almost went for one of Semogue boars but Simpsons beat them out having been established in 1919. Then there's my second favourite straight, Frederick Reynolds Swayback that I picked up from Griffiths Shaving, lovely condition and a great shaver. As far as I can tell they were established around 1840.

Challenge - Leg Day

Sorry ladies and gentlemen, I am out on this one. As I said yesterday the Mrs does not like the idea of me with shaved legs, so I will bow out and self-scrub.

Photocontest

Being father's day I had to aim this at 'DIY', whilst I'm certainly not an expert around the house, I can at least cover the basics without chopping my limbs off!

Already been spoilt this morning, and I'm not cooking tonight (I do bigger meals at the weekend) so it's a cracking day!

Hope the rest of you get on well with it, Happy Fathers Day to all, have a good one!

Cheers

Marc
