Incident when shaving. OOoopps. A Huddyism?

Feek · 30-12-2007, 22:11

Tonight, I did my usual Sunday evening trick of having a good decent wet shave - Most weekday mornings I just run over my chin(s) with an electric which although rubbish is good enough for work.

However today I decided that my beard had got too bushy and needed a trim. I knew it was bushy as I found a nest of Swallows in there yesterday. European ones, before anyone asks.

So, out with the poncy hair trimmer things and on with the number one guard. The blades seemed a bit dry so I looked around for some oil.

No sign of the official stuff.

Ahhhh, this'll do.

It's got a foldy down lid with a nozzle thing, I upfolded it and gingerly tilted the bottle over the blades to get a few drops out, but a full stream of oil fell out onto the trimmers, all over the blades. Oops.

I mopped up what I could and proceeded to trim the beard, making sure I did my usual Hitler impression when I got to the moustache "You vill get me a beer", "Ve haff vays ov making you cook ze tea" etc etc and then I had my proper wet shave.

Now my chin(s) have the delicate aroma of Aramis shaving foam mixed in with Napier Gun Oil. Impressive.

But Chuck Norris doesn't shave! He just looks at his beard in the mirror and frightens the hair off his face.
