Dare one utter the word "sabbatical" for 2025?

2025 Sabbatical Fail
Lately, I've been happily cruising along with what most of us would regard as a comparatively minimal selection of shave setups, and I don't really see that changing anytime soon. So I have resolved (ahahahah) not to make any shave-related purchases through 2025.

Let the mockery begin. :facepalm: :LOL:

For the record, I currently have...
a selection of TroyCraft and Forgotten Art brushes (plus one or two others in need of occasional ventilation)
my Atelier Durdan Vestige and Wolfman WR4 (plus Blackland Vector and Sabre which have both been on ice the last few months),
Yardley, Czech & Speake (Valobra) Oxford & Cambridge, DRH Windsor, MdC Rose and (in the next few weeks) Eufros Aura de Lavanda, plus an unopened tub of NO Two Kings for when the seasons turn cooler.

I survived 2021 in this fashion, and abjectly failed to do so in 2023.

Does anyone have similar aspirations for the New Year? In blatant emulation of a certain other site, we could call it GRUYEre (Gentlemanly Restraint Until Year End).

Yep, gunna attempt my first ever sabbatical year with regard to shaving related purchases. Like abstaining from anything I feel confident right now………. All of 18 hours in 🤔

You're still smoking a joint with your brother Sherlock, which doesn't relate to sabbatical wet shaving.

I have no problem with being called a fool, I have certainly been one on more than one occasion. :LOL: I'm not in politics, so I can cheerfully admit this. But of the sabbaticals I have so far attempted, I have, so far, succeeded at one, and failed (dismally) at another. I have a gut feeling I'll be OK with this one... :unsure:
