    Tobs and g trumper shave soaps

    You can get good lathers from Trumper soaps. I’ve found that the trick is to load heavily at first and then dial it back a bit to find the right water soap balance.

    Wilkinson Sword - majorly underrated

    The stick is fantastic. It’s hard to beat the tallow-lanolin combo.

    Provence Sante Green Tea is outstanding.

    What Are You Reading?

    I liked Schoolboy better than Tinker. Fantastic combination of action in the field and behind the scenes within the Circus.

    What Are You Reading?

    I finished LeCarré’s The Honourable Schoolboy yesterday and thoroughly enjoyed it. I love the flawed characters and conclusions that are not neat and tidy. Moving on to Stephen King’s ‘The Girl Who Loved Tom Gordon.’

    My Guess... 3017

    This is when soap use becomes like reading a Stephen King novel...inexorable drive to the end.

    What Are You Reading?

    I have been obsessed with Krakatoa since reading The 21 Balloons when I was a kid. I read Winchester's book when it first came out and loved the thing.

    Jack Purcells by Converse. What a shame.

    I would do the same thing you’re doing, Bob, but my shoe size varies from brand to brand (10.5 in Aldens; 11.5 in Brooks; 12 in ASICS). I can’t trust that they’ll fit when they get here.

    Jack Purcells by Converse. What a shame.

    I had the Superstars in white leather with Kelly Green stripes. Still my all-time favorite basketball shoe.
