Love this soap
B&M’s take on Old Spice.
I do have a few old spice dupes and they are all first class.
Just heard i’m away back to Africa on the 10th which will mean no more daily shaves :cry:
I guess i could but gets dull using the same old.
Never Mind

Staggeringly good residual slip! What a great soap! I'll echo what I said yesterday: there'll be fans of this soap here - I wish you'd shouted louder about it. Love it! Love it! Love it!

Needed a shave tonight, stubble felt rough and uncomfortable, probably cold related! Seems to take an age to shake a cold off these days, I can remember when a box of Beechams Powder’s and a bottle of Veno’s would have me fit and well by the weekend. Or perhaps that’s just how I remember it! Incidentally, anyone not familiar with the above products - should you be up this late?
Anyway, the shave was nice. Soothing and relaxing, no irritation and visage feels much better, pity about the rest of me!

I’m keeping my eye on you, if you look too poorly, I’ll rush over and lick you to make you feel better!
Errr, thanks, I think.
