Thanked: 485I understand you all love your scuttles, but for me, simply sitting my little green pottery bowl in a sink of hot water works fine. Also, I don't have the room to store such a large vessel in my bathroom. Of course, if I felt a little peckish in the morning and wanted a seafood bouillabaisse after the shave, then these scuttles might just do the trick... :-)
Stranger, if you passing meet me and desire to speak to me, why should you not speak to me? And why should I not speak to you?

Thanked: 485Yeah, you're probably right. It's about 34ish at the moment during the day. Cold for me is anything less than about 20. It does get down to maybe 10 at times during winter and maybe zero at night, but it's not like your climate. Living in Sweden sounds so cool, though, with the free love, and all those blonde tall ladies (who I'm SURE would love a middle aged Australian guy; they must get so BORED with all those tall, blonde Swedish men...)....

Thanked: 485Don't you all run around pristine spruce forests scantily clad most of the time, wearing only pristine white clothes and laughing uproariously? Or have I been watching the wrong sorts of movies/ads?
Anyway, back to the scuttle question, I guess when the H2O out of the tap is near freezing it's a necessity..Stranger, if you passing meet me and desire to speak to me, why should you not speak to me? And why should I not speak to you?

Aha, that's my neighbors, the ones in white and with happy smiles (they darken slightly when they see me though). Plenty of blond and fair looking gals here, but you get used to it
We do have heaters in the houses though, re cold water, but it's nicer when the scuttle keeps warm lather all the way through the shave and mostly you need hotter water than tap water for that (or pre heat the scuttle).

Glad to hear your enjoying your new scuttle, just be careful, it's easy to become spoiled with all that warm lather
