Let me know how you get on with it. And good luck with compiling the newbie box. Good of you to do it.

Reaver · Wednesday July 26, 2017

Thanks to @Emma C. The box is getting bigger.

If anyone else has anything they would like to contribute to get this underway again then give me a pm for my address. Gonna put a limit of 2 weeks on it then I'll be passing every thing on.

Reaver · Wednesday July 26, 2017

This was sent for the new box by @Barry Giddens

I'm more than happy to send a dozen different blade sample tucks. Will include some NOS British Wilkies and Personna to keep it interesting. PM already sent to @Reaver

Maybe it's worth considering attaching a fully refundable Â£20 deposit to the box via PayPal. Could act as a deterrent against absent mindedness and skulduggery?

Benz3ne · Thursday July 27, 2017

Also, chuck me your deets @Reaver, I'll send across a boxed QShave Futur and see what else I can dig out.

Reaver · Friday July 28, 2017

Had a shower and a shave last night using the BBA products. I shave my head and have a beard so the shampoo and conditioner were used in that lol @Emma C. Wow BTW that conditioner is awsome. Used the beard oil/shave oil as a preshave and also rubbed into the beard. Lovely stuff. Also used the shave cream (one with the removable bowl) not bad although I wouldn't recommend using a straight with it. Might be my technique, might be the soap but I got a few holes in ma head lol. Post shave balm was absolutely stunning aswell. I would highly recommend it to everyone to try.

Thanks for the opportunity @Emma C. To try them.

Barry Giddens · Friday July 28, 2017

A parcel of BBA goodies arrived today from the very generous @Emma C. Can't wait to try them!
