Does Lush Dirty Shaving Cream Work With A Philips Philishave Electric Shaver?

by

The vital question to any man using an electric shaver when it comes to selecting a shaving cream for a wet shave. Will it actually work with my shaver? Or is it just going to clog it up?

I’ve tried a lot of different shaving creams and gels with my Philips SensoTouch 3D electric shaver, and Lush Dirty is the first shaving cream I’ve found that doesn’t clog it up. It just glides perfectly and makes the shave much more pleasant.

I highly recommend it if you have one of these shavers or a similar Philishave model that is capable of wet shaving. Watch the video review below for all my thoughts on it.

by
The Rain Coming in from the ocean at Honiara

I spent ages hunting online for how to check my usage/remaining balanced with Our Telekom (Breeze) in the Solomon Islands, I couldn’t find anything anywhere though to tell me, and there wasn’t anything in the sim card pack I received either.

So for anyone else looking, I ended up calling their customer service number who told me how to check it.

In most of the countries I have been to, my iPhone has automatically detected the carrier settings and configured itself for me. The Solomon Islands is to date the one exception. It worked fine for voice calls and text messages, but when it came to data usage, no go.

Why Does God Allow Us To Make Mistakes?

by

It is good for us to be involved in the work of God. It teaches us to be Christ-like. It’s important to remember as well that we learn, whether we sin and rebel or whether we get actively involved. Either way we learn and sometimes we have to learn before we can achieve what God actually intends for us to achieve.

How long does it take to clear security on arrival domestically at LAX and transfer for an international departure?

by

That my friends is the question.

As we neared completion of planning the itinerary for our trip to the USA and Canada we needed to figure out how to get back. It seemed the cheapest and easiest route that didn’t involve lengthy stopovers anywhere that potentially required overnight accommodation was to fly from Seattle to Los Angeles and then depart our international flight home.

The cheapest option involved booking the flights together, so the booking was Seattle -> Los Angeles -> Sydney. The flights were with Alaska Airlines from Seattle to Los Angeles and then Qantas the rest of the way to Sydney. The stopover at LAX though was only 1 hour and 30 minutes and we had to get from Terminal 6 to the Tom Bradley International Terminal. My gut instinct was that this time is tight for a transfer between domestic and international terminals at Sydney airport, even without checked baggage, let alone at LAX.
