I did once get some funny looks from the staff of my local chemist last time I was in there buying some Industrial Alcohol until I explained that it was for (Briar) pipe cleaning.
Tincture of Opium eh? - "I assure you Officer that this is purely for mixing with shaving soap"
 
Odd - I was after some Vitamin C powder and had to order it specially and leave my phone number. That afternoon I got a phone call from the Police to enquire what I wanted it for. I explained that I had a recipe that called for it and that I wasn't in fact making bombs with it and if I did want to make bombs I could probably rustle up all the gear for free just from what's lying around on local farms. I'm sure if I asked for anything less ordinary I'd be hauled off by the rozzers.
 
It is possible to OD on vitamin C.I didn't know you could make bombs with it though.
 
Given the price of it, you'd have to be richer than Croesus or dimmer than a Toc-H lamp to do so.

Also given the preparation method, it doesn't have "safe" written on it at all - <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.freepatentsonline.com/4964929.html">http://www.freepatentsonline.com/4964929.html</a><!-- m -->
 
I think we all must have very understanding pharmacists. I have had Isopropyl Alcohol (AKA Rubbing Alcohol) Glycerin, Pill bottles and he even got me some borax from a shop close to where he says just down the road.

I am glad to hear you managed to obtain a suitable additive for the stick. Please update us with your results.
 
Ascorbic acid (vit C) can also be used for cutting drugs and as a flour improver in bread making.

OD? No, you can take endless amounts but too much will give you loose stools (like the ones from Ikea) and may stop the (contraceptive) Pill from working. I've taken 5g (5,000 mg) of the stuff before. Runny poo but that's all.
 
Afraid it can get worse than arse gravy,my brother in law done a study on the effects and was very surprised.
This isn't his findings btw I nabbed it off tinterweb

The site has been live for less than a week and already we are being subjected to this.

Does anyone know a more civilised shave-related website? Somewhere where gentlemen reside and discuss civilised subjects such as guns and knives?

Have you thought of <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.lesmis.com">http://www.lesmis.com</a><!-- m --> - I've been instructed by the boss that I'm taking her to see it and that I'll enjoy it because "it's got guns, whores and death in it".

Actually the person who coined that term was none other than Stephen Fry (well first time I had heard it) Surely that ups its status in gentlemanly terms?

Being a Public School educated paederast with a taste for crossword puzzles (not a euphemism) hardly qualifies a person as a gentleman.
And then again.....
