Out......AGAIN
The ceramic scuttle that I purchased at the end of last month does a great job of keeping my lather warm throughout my three pass shave, but it is much too heavy for slippery hands. In this case size does matter. I bought a much smaller one.

Unless I missed something, this is our first "out" of August.

I hope the new scuttle meets your needs. Maybe the other one can be traded for the next item on your "want" list? In any case, it would be nice if you were to stick around and keep posting with us. Even better would be re-committing yourself to GRUME and working toward a 30-of-31 finish to the month. One mistake does not define you!

And when a brother falls, it's time for...

Roll Call!

Seems like I was conscripted for August but this is fine I’ve been good this month anyway :c1:
