Ouch!!! Well, the good news it that it will get better.
I agree with others that your lather may be a little on the thin side. It really should not be going away in the manner you describe. Soap is relatively inexpensive; you may want to experiment with creating a long lasting lather without worrying about shaving.

What a blood bath... I didn't know vampires use to bite that low

Hope you'll enjoy Teddy's abilities to generate bubbling lather... I just hope it will be rabies-free

Since you are an expert, Count, what do you think of one mutt's efforts this evening.
Not as much blood, but still. There were another 3 on her hand from another mutt. Not to mention a ruined pair of stockings.

Damn shame all of it

You are trying to breed Cerberus, are you? naughty boy... next time, you may use metal stockings, they are more efficient

And, sydneykidney, you know, there is a place for so many fetishes in this world... if he likes to wear stockings... maybe he was just trying to make a performance for the Sweet Transvestite from Transexual, Transylvania

Hey baby!

BTW, without kidding, sorry for the cuts and wounds...

One of these days in your travels, a guy is going to show you a brand-new deck of cards on which the seal is not yet broken. Then this guy is going to offer to bet you that he can make the jack of spades jump out of this brand-new deck of cards and squirt cider in your ear. But, son, do not accept this bet, because as sure as you stand there, you're going to wind up with an ear full of cider.

Thanks Gents, that gave me the laugh I really needed this morning.

Yes my poor legs have taken a bettering over the last 2 days. The bite eventually stopped bleeding 3 hours after the incident, I didn't even realise my legs had copped it due to the nibbles on my hand (which is fine BTW).

Neighbours sister has an 8 week old Blue Staffordshire Bull Terrier who came for a visit last night so I could meet him. I was holding the puppy and Tara and Georgie decided to square off with each other. It all happened so fast.

The last thing I wanted was for either of the dogs to get hurt, so in trying to sepparate them I moved the puppy up on my right shoulder and just stuck my left hand out between them. Georgie is responsible for the hand and Tara for the bite on the leg. Both of them were suitably shame faced about it when things had calmed down, I knew neither of them wanted to hurt me really but they got carried away in their spat.

The bite is on my right calf just a little lower down than the slice on my left. On the back of my left calf is a huge scratch with a lovely purple bruise surrounding it.

I was more p***d off about my lace tops being trashed than the bites and scratches. If this is the result because of wearing a skirt I'm back in my jeans in the future!

Butch yes I heal quickly which is a blessing and I have noticed that straight cuts heal faster than any others, thank you for the concern.

I don't mind the nicks really. I just lost my focus and was very aware of Spike hovering with the phone camera mutant.
I see you are at the leading edge of the latest fad... Leg nicks! Its the latest status symbol! The more nicks you have the higher up on the social ladder you are!

Seriously though, let them legs heal! Take care now!

Hats off to the ladies!

It's great to see more people using straight razors, especially women.

As for the cuts, at least you can cover up your legs! Sometimes I have to roll into work with something like that on my mug :eek

(C utz, in the lab, working....the boss walks up to ask me a question, I'm thinking, "Please don't ask about the dueling scar, Please don't ask about the dueling scar, Please don't ask about the dueling scar")

Great work Silver!
