Brian, Jerry, have you tried the "Crabtree and Evelyn" products?

My first brush was from there, but I haven't tried their creams or soaps. Have you had good experiences?
I'm partial to the Taylors of Old Bond Street and Proraso (and in turn not really fond of Turmper's). There's a host of different brands out there and it does take a while to work through a tub...

City,
I purchased my brush from my local barber. It is a beauty! Italian, you know.

During my 9 months in countless body casts at St. Mary's in Winona and Mayo Clinic, I had a regular tab at Vincenzo's Pizzeria. Thin and crispy crust. The blonde, blue-eyed, NORDIC Candy Stripers would come and play YAhtzee, thread a cotton covered hanger down my right leg and get the itches. They really liked the Pizza and I had a better social life (playing Yahtzee with pretty girls) in the hospital than I had until college.
It does take awhile to get through the tubs, Brian. The Sandalwood C&E is so aromatic that it lasts until 3pm or so every day. It is great in the winter but bad on a golf course until after the round as it attracts every critter within a mile!

I'll have to try that. I've got a sandalwood soap and it is a winter scent for sure...

That was one smooth transition there , sort like Ernies.
Your handle should really be ... ICS. "Innercity segue" or "innersegueteacher" maybe? Not sure.

We are just chatting here, Mr. Mighty Golfer of the Universe!!! What fun is having a tree-house if you can't whistle at pretty girls, open a bag of Doritios or Pork Rinds for Buckett, compare the effects of Cialis and Viagra, and chug a Fresca or a quart of strawberry soda just for old times????
Did I mention my favorite golf shoes are like Crocs?
I'm not this chatty when playing, right Kevin, Jerry, fellas, FELLAS?!!!
