Phoenix & Beau is a new brand to me. I like supporting British businesses. The Trafalgar scent sounds intriguing, and I cant wait to get my hands on it.

Today i spent about an hour lapping the Vintage oil-stone flat, once cleaned up it revealed 2 pretty deep scratches up to about 2mm wide.

I concentrated on the side without any edge damage and went from this

To This

Its like glass.

Three of the small C&S 88 travel size pucks of shaving soap and one of the larger Oxford and Cambridge soaps. Thought the cost of the containers was a bit prohibitive and won't be too difficult to find something suitable.

Also put my name down for one of the Rocnel 50(N) SE razors when they finalise and release them hopefully early next year. This one I am more than happy to wait for and what a lovely company to deal with.

I rather like their present creams as well
