Shaving brush
 

Does anyone know where I can get a decent shaving brush in Accy? My current one is almost on it's way out. I got it from Wilko's about 3 years ago for the princely sum of 49p, so it was money well spent. However, when I looked in there on saturday I could not see any & I certainly don't want to pay thirty or forty quid for one, which seems to be the price down here.

I don't use shaving foam or gel as this type of lubrication is fit only for the gay community and I have never used an electric razor, which again is fit only for those undergoing trans-gender reassignment - so don't bother with these suggestions. However, if you can point me in the right direction I'll buy you a pint (or half a mild if you're a young lady).

Cheers.

You won't get real badger for three quid.

Get into Trumper's when you get back to London you tight wad.

You could try an old fashioned pharmacists, if there are any left where you are in Accy. They might have some dusty pre-war stock, priced up in pounds, shilling and pence for you.;)

Last time I was up St James St, Thrumper's brushes started at thirty-five quid for the smallest; I think most of that was payment for the fake ivory and gold handle and Thrumper's label.

I don't want 'owt fancy - just something that does the job.

So be serious. And yes, I have tried Bootes - last night, and I saw nowt - other than the fact they seem well stocked up in Brut aftershave, which is flying off the shelves once again. I think I've got a bit left from last time round.

I bought one I use for stencilling I bought for next to nothing from that place in the Arcade.

The stock changes all the time so they may not have them now.

I'd do a tour of the pound shops, one of them is bound to have a cheap shaving brush.

Re: Shaving brush
 

See if you can pick up two for a quid - that way I can keep one in Church and one down here

Re: Shaving brush
 

I'll buy you three, and you can shove the other one up your ****!!!!:eek: :D

Re: Shaving brush
 

Now, now....that may be the sort of thing people get up to in Ossy but most of us can think of better things to do in life than inserting shaving tackle up bodily orifices.

Re: Shaving brush
 

Watford Gap isn't a bodily orifice.

Re: Shaving brush
 

I think I might have a genuine badger brush knocking about somewhere, (calm down Rindy you know the type I mean).

If I can find it, it's yours T', I'll try to sort it for next time your up.:D

Re: Shaving brush
 

Less, will it be one free badger brush with every Fiesta bought?

Re: Shaving brush
 

Re: Shaving brush
 

I've got an old paintbrush you can have tealeaf.

Re: Shaving brush
 

I'd forgotten all about those things. My father's used to live in a dish next to the kitchen sink when we lived in Holland Street. (No bathroom then!)

You could try to grow a beard..........

Re: Shaving brush
 

Re: Shaving brush
 

Yes Neil by the way here's your genuine,

Re: Shaving brush
 

I do wish you would hurry up and get that brush !!!

Re: Shaving brush
 

I've asked someone in the 'gay community', and they say you could fashion a shaving brush using the hair lost from your pate, held togeter by a kirby grip. This shouldn't require the use of any fancy nancy lubrication.

Re: Shaving brush
 

superdrug got a few on sale there

around 4-5quid

i prefer using brush too rather than gels

Re: Shaving brush
 

Re: Shaving brush
 

Just been to Accy market and noticed that there is a stall in the Market Hall, stall number 62 I think it's called B&D's and it's near the sewing tackle stall. They are selling shaving brushes for the princely sum of £2.99.
Hope this helps.:D

Re: Shaving brush
 

Whoopee! Thank you Lettie - there's a pint of cider paid on for you (or there will be in two weeks time)

How come, however, that in a simple request such as this, I have been subjected to an awesome verbal assault, ranging from a suggestion that a hairy object should be stuck up my rectum to a visual representation of me as an Accrington Bin Laden? Why?

Re: Shaving brush
 

As was answered to Rula Lenska in that old advert....because you're worth it.:D

Re: Shaving brush
 

Please don't associate me with those pathetic adverts for that pathetic company L'Oriel. Every time I see that old slapper 'Hanoi' Jane Fonda on t'telly I want to puke. Who buys that rubbbish, anyway? And what has this got to do with a shaving brush?

Re: Shaving brush
 

Both of you are worried about your haircare.

Re: Shaving brush
 

Re: Shaving brush
 

I don't give a damn about my hair care, because there's nowt there to care for anyway (thats the only drawback to having excess male testostorone)

Re: Shaving brush
 

Probably paid on at the now closed Stag :rolleyes:

Re: Shaving brush
 

Re: Shaving brush
 

Good grief who pays £78 for a shaving brush???? :eek:

Re: Shaving brush
 

That's apparently cheap.

I'm not looking forward to when I grow up have to start shaving.:D

Re: Shaving brush
 

Oh, well if what rindy says is true,

'Buy less's shaving brush, get the fiesta free!':D

Re: Shaving brush
 

:eek: See! Yet another idea of mine which was orignally glossed over as if I'd never even written it. Am I really here I ask myself or just a figment of my own imagination? :confused:

Re: Shaving brush
 

I didn't know they still published Fiesta.;)

Do readers still send in pictures of theie wives?:D

Re: Shaving brush
 

What? Eh, Have I interrupted something?

Willow with a cob on?

Where's this from? :eek:

Re: Shaving brush
 

Re: Shaving brush
 

:pFree Fiestas and Superdrug shaving brushes Less. Need I say more?:p


P.S. I do not get cobs on.:D




(I haven't heard that one for a few years.)

Re: Shaving brush
 

Re: Shaving brush
 

Forget it!

I don't need this, If I've interrupted and missed something tough, call it a page change, otherwise don't let it be something minor that I've jumped into the middle of inadvertently.:mad:

Re: Shaving brush
 

Stop the madness.

Willow sugested these things earlier, but she was unnoticed. The credit then went to others instead.

:D

Re: Shaving brush
 

Them there smileys are supposed to be indicating that I was having a laugh about it Less. I really don't get cobs on unless it is something earth shatteringly serious and even then I tend to write epic posts rather than not.

It was just me having a laugh at the fact that I'd mentioned tryng Superdrug quite early on in the thread and then a lot later Mani said why not try Superdrug.

I'd also made a joke following a comment about you offering a free shaving brush with every Festa sold and said something like how about a free Fiesta with every shaving brush? And then when you said something similar it made me laugh becuse I'd already commented on my Superdrug post having got lost in cyberland.:D

Re: Shaving brush
 

See how easily the written word can be misunderstood in comparison to the spoken word - unless of course it's spoken by a friend of mine who sounds a bit like Vicky Pollard on speed you can imagine it can be quite difficult to follow at times. :D

Re: Shaving brush
 

Plastic????? :p

Re: Shaving brush
 

False/fake.

A bit like my faux cough.;)

Re: Shaving brush
 

Re: Shaving brush
 

Rooney Shaving Brush - Finest
Style 1 Large Finest Badger Hair Shaving Brush in Faux Ivory

Price: £255.00 (£217.02 net)

Are they joking? £255.00 for a shaving brush theyre out of their minds!
Who'd pay that for something they use maybe twice more than likely once a day. Just like that moisturiser at £600 an ounce!

Re: Shaving brush
 

Re: Shaving brush
 

Just to get closure on the story, I was back in Wilkinson's last saturday and picked up a new brush for 34p! What a bargain....15p cheaper than the last one I bought there three years ago. Looks like the Chinese are bunging up productivity in their shaving brush factories. I can confirm though, that it is not real ivory.

Re: Shaving brush
 

(Faux cough, from Rindy.)

Never!:D
