No, I compiled it for Ã‚Â£26, which is even more of a feat. Very lucky that my little Simpson fits the tube perfectly, then I added the Palmolive (at 75p or whatever they sell for now).

I forgot to say that the kit originally came with a flairtip Rocket and some NOS 7 O'Clock blades. So I actually got more for my money that just what you see there.

I do travel with it, though: very nice to unzip that and see all the lovely stuff smiling up at me. It's like having "home" contained in a single leather-bound volume of vintage manliness.

Which is nearly as nice as having your manliness encased in leather bound home, Or is that just me :?

Spandex codpiece has been replaced with a leather one?

I was offered a similar kit yesterday as it happens, containing a ball end Tech, Chinese brush and a wrapped stick of what was probably Erasmic. At Ã‚Â£15 I turned it down.

I take it the Hemingways in the background were a deliberate choice?

Not really, but I suppose it adds to the overall effect.
