i am so proud of myself today, i may even run naked down the lane (no neighbours, the only ones i'd scare are the wild ponys!)
I have had a bowl of soap for about a year now, never used it, i thought cream would be easier! but after reading posts on here (squeezing brush, making an almost paste, etc etc) i had my first soap shave today, so luxurious and smooth. if it happens again for the next few days i think i may be a soap convert. so thanks chaps!!

i found it had a "fresher" and not quite as heavy smell as the crabtree and evelyn one that i threw away (but that could have been that it was several years old, 3/4 used, by my father, and all cracked up)!

I always thought Taylor's sandalwood soap smelled of Harpic.

Michael,
I was thinking that "Stilton soup with Boddingtons" might be a nice scent .

Chris,
To which "Harpic" were you referring?
1)Harpic (cleaning product), a cleaning product in Europe and other countries outside the United States.
2)Harpic (drink), a drink made with vodka, Kahlua coffee liqueur, Curaçao liqueur and lemonade

Let me guess.

It smells better than Lysol, that's for sure.

Put me down for one tub of 'Marmite' and one tub of 'Dog'. Actually, is that 'wet dog' or just 'dog'?

At least you can be sure no-one will be indifferent to your product.

Don't produce it in a squeezy bottle though, that'd be just plain wrong.

Damn! How did I miss this one?! Put me down for two cakes each of the HP and Bacon & Eggs soaps ( I'm going to melt them down and combine them into four custom scented numbers....should be superb! ). And also some Fog A/S......gotta have it! By Jove!...I LOVE olde Englysh stuff....don't I just!
