hard soap

[Wil_D]

I use the Lea hard soap and it's super easy to lather and very reasonably priced. Nice mild scent too, even for me who isn't fond of some sandalwoods.

Something completely different: is your avatar a sparrow hawk? If so, my favourite bird. We have one in the garden.

It is an african goshawk. It does look very similar, doesn't it...

I've found Haslinger, La Toja and Cyril R Salter all to be excellent hard soaps at very reasonable prices.

Truly beautiful! The back feathers blend also well with the tiles' color! Clever hawk! They probably migrated to Europe from Africa at some point, hence why the similarity. Or the opposite... But given that Africa's climate has been more stable than northern Europe's during ice ages and all, i would say it is more probable that they moved from Africa to the north.

As far as a good to great daily low cast soap [emoji3475] Van Der Hagen, as well as Williams, I am not in the Arko camp but it is a good performance soap. I have some Tobac on the way for the first time should be here tomorrow.
