Alright. I got my Gillette Mach3 Turbo today, and it's on my desk here next to me, in all its glory. I got it in this little kind of gift pack that came with a can of shaving gel, ie gel that turns to foam. Only this time its a smaller version. Its about the size of a toilet roll without the toilet paper on (with lid off). It's a little taller than a coke can with the lid on. Would that be suitable / allowed in the field? I also got this small pot of aftershave / balm thats about the same size as the shaving oil you were pointing out. The only problem is that it's scented... like most balms... yet on the kit list it says to bring balm. Surely in the field it'd be a bit stupid to go through all the camoflage hassle, if we stink like a tart's window box, and anyone can smell us from a mile away :-? . Or is it just for admin reasons? Any suggestions?
No fate but what we make
