Bronnley Bargain

[Gairdner]

Bronnley have a sale on and their excellent James Bronnley Original EdT is currently half price at £10 for 100ml spray. It really is a lovely, understated yet lasting, gentlemanly fragrance. Long a favourite of mine.

Cheers, I just ordered 4 to the 3 or 4 I ordered in the summer sale. I also grabbed a Lime and Bergamot, hopefully it's not too feminine...

I’ve often wanted to try that and nearly took the plunge as it was in stock when I bought the JBO.

Mebbe 8 years since I had a bottle. Lighter than, say, Puig Agua Lavande or Ach Brito Agua de Lavande but potent enough. Lovely scent.

Always good to have a recommendation from my personal guru. The only bum steer I ever had from you was those dang ER window scrapers but is next year the year of the 1912? I doubt it but the car windows will be sorted at least…

P.S. I still think it is one of the most beautiful razors out there but if there was a bigger choice of blades, I might find it more to my liking.

Try it again with a shim?

Google!

Take a spine off an old blade and slip it under the spine of the loaded blade. That slight angle change can make all the difference.

You called? You can also use some modelling plasticard as a shim as it comes in varying thicknesses if you don't want to cut up DE blades.

 

[pjgh]

GEM shim, I think.

GEM shim, I think.

Indeed.

I think Andreas/Riverrun says you can use a bit of bicycle inner tube, from something I saw on ATG
