have a nice day đź‘‹
What a beautiful setup. :love: That sheesham bowl is much classier than my (somewhat worse for wear) beechwood bowl. The soap is lovely though. A lot of the old-school quality milled soaps have disappeared or reformulated, so it's nice that DRH is still there to show how it's done. (y)

Great shave this morning - it’s Mammoth Monday. Thanks for the sample @Mark1966. Nice woodsy scent, how did you get this?? I can’t buy it from Maggard, Mammoth doesn't ship internationally… must be the Federal Government Shaving Supplies down in Canberra.

No idea how I got it or from where! I was just packing up the APR, realised I didn't have any bonus handy and saw this sample to add in :)

I've been sort of stuck on this setup for the last few days, partly because I've been too lazy to change anything, but mostly because it's just so damn nice.
