Nooooo! Say it isn't so. Well, I'll try it tomorrow morning, so we'll see. As for the B&M, I'm pretty confident that'll be OK on my hide (maybe not as much as the excelsior bases), but we'll find out soon enough.

Sure, come here and I'll give you a [bear] hug ...
Okay YogiEnough with the puns already!
If you are not into the Waves I would be up for either an exchange or purchase. What do you make of the scent of the C&F Lavender. I also have this and find it to be really strong. Too much for my liking. Good tip on the Lavande. I'll know to steer clear of this.
I'd be happy to do an exchange/sell on the Waves if you'd like it. One way or another, I'm not going to keep it. I did briefly lather it up with a fresh brush just to be sure, but otherwise it's all there. The Castle Forbes is a bit strong, but I can live with that. I think it's a better soap than WFTW performance-wise. I obviously overloaded it this first time, as I ended up with about half a bucket full of lather. I could have washed the dogs with it...

I concur, the Castle Forbes is stronger and offers better cushion, slickness, and after shave nourishment. It's not that the WFTW is bad but that CF is better.I'd be happy to do an exchange/sell on the Waves if you'd like it. One way or another, I'm not going to keep it.

Here's Leonard with the Yaqi 'Sagrada Familia' brush I sent (from West Coast Shaving actually). Reading his posts, he seemed like the guy that has everything, so took a punt.
"What a pleasant surprise... thanks Bernie. I love Yaqi brushes and this one is just my style! "

Albuquerque... in all its glory over his back fence
Beautiful landscape and real Mexican food. What's not to like? I've only got a douchebag neighbour over my back fence.
Looxury! I don't even have a back fenceI've only got a douchebag neighbour over my back fence.
However, my nearest neighbor is 1.5km away...

New synthetic from AP Shave Co
I think it’s called 2BED
I will retire my RazoRock Plissoft.

Looks really good, and you feel the performance is at another level compared to the Plissoft?
My shitty day has been slightly recovered by the arrival of 1 out of 3 new Simmo's. Wanted to complete my collection with one of each grade of badger before they change completely to the new logo, which looks a bit cheap to me.

What’s the new logo looks like???
This is appearing on some brushes in their store, sorry for small pic:
Assume that it's a printed logo instead of a sticker, it's just not to my taste and doesn't match my others. As a consultant, my favourite word is 'synergy' which is what I want in my set.
That bloody stupid printed logo won’t last much longer on any Simpsons brushes, bloody waste of ink or paint.This is appearing on some brushes in their store, sorry for small pic:

I strongly prefer the new Semogue brushes the engraving idea, last for EVER!!
