We were somewhere around the edge of the den - when the shave sticks began to take hold. I remember saying something like 'I feel a bit lightheaded; maybe you should lather........?' Shave sticks - not just for the travel bag - up this evening - Vie Long - tallow - in my opinion - identical to the old formula Lea soap. Just re-branded. It worked really well tonight - a couple of days growth - enough to scrape a decent amount of soap directly onto the face - crayon style - face lather - I think I'm getting the hang of the AP Shave synth knot - more water - more water - more than you think feasible - particularly with a soap like this. Ice cream peaks in short order - nice. Software wise - keeping it old school Spanish for the finish - todo bueno. @culcreuch - B. - noticed your mention of a - new to me - version of Gotas - I'll look out for that. A great shave all round - enjoy yours - I.
