Just come back from food shopping, stopped in at a Chemist (us=Pharmacy) Mr Newbury's, Newton Road, Mumbles, Swansea - no web site
Well I think he must be a wet shaving fan, in his rather good shop he had -

Brushes
Kent brushes, synthetic, bristle, super mix (horse hair and badger!?), pure badger and lastly a huge super badger brush.
Culmak synthetic, black dimpled, bristlebrushes.
Also two other makes, one make bristle only, the other make bristle and badger brushes.
Prices for all the brushes were very reasonable.

Hard Soaps -
Culmak
Palmolive
Erazmic
Crabtree & Evelyn (a couple of flavours)
He had two other well known quality makes in a few flavours too and they were all priced UNDER what I have seen on the net.
EG the Crabtree&Evelyn soap with rosewood bowl was £9.95 !!
He also had shaving creams to match (same brand and flavour) as the hard soaps with a few additions too. One tube of cream that caught my eye as I had never heard of it before was Ingrhams (spelling?)
I bought a stick of Erazmus(65p) and a "puck" of Culmak soap(£3.35).
I have only smelled them so far, the Erazmic was a new smell to me and I really, really like it.
The Culmak I instantly recognised as the soap my grandad smelled of, even though I never paid any notice to what was in his cabinet when he was alive. I always though he used Palmolive!!
Now I know where to send the relatives for my birthday and Christmas
