Who's afraid of Virginia Woolfat?

[Johnny Bravo]

Typical mine is not on the list above.
I will test it out tonight and report back.
Fingers crossed it's good.

Good morning chaps, well the test lathering went well and it produced a thick creamy stable lather.

I've just ordered another two from The Shave Shack and I'm sure they will be fine. Just stocking up because who knows what's going to happen!

I have just shaved and as you can see I would say it's a good one. Remember I have never used this soap before but it lathered up quickly and shaved well.
Mine came from The Executive shaving company, care of Amazon.

I'm marking 9027 as a dud now since it fell short of what I expected from MWF and @exists subsequetly sourced a good puck from the 9029 batch and was a damn sight happier with the result.

 

[Gairdner]

@pjgh my 8923 was purchased in Dec22/Jan23. Two purchases a week or so apart. I think, no, I m pretty sure. Very close anyway.

MWF 9223 tested and AOK for me Purchased this week from The English Shaving Company (Edwin Jagger) via Amazon

Just get some permethrin. Not only will it sort the scabies out, but you can put it on your woollen things to keep moth damage at bay. But don't use it if you have cats.

I have just tried to buy MWF refills from 2 different sites now but they are out of stock.
I wonder if we are buying up all the good batches? Lol
