Artistic differences eh lol.

What about the cigar shop next to Yates'. That did a few shaving bits when I was home last. Seemed pricey though.

How is my home city? I heard the quayside flooded.

last time i was in there the cigar shop just sold razor shaped objects and tobs cream.

I've never seen the Tyne flood like that, at Coatbridge mebbies but never there.

Ah, Whitley Bay. Is the Spanish city still open?

May have hijacked the thread here

well its been in refurbishment for like 8 years, no one knows whats going on with it including the contractors i imagine. it opens for the film festival then is closed all year round

I won't have her address until tomorrow afternoon, and.thanks.

I'm currently using both Dominica Bay Rum, and Taylor Of Old Bond Bay Rum. I really like them both, and the scent of Bay Rum lasts for hours.

Just recently purchased some Royall Bay Rhum and really enjoy it, now trying to decide what will be next, thinking Dominica or Captain's Choice.

My favourites are Dominica, Royall and Clubman. I was able to sample Ogallala once and it was very nice but hard to find in Canada.

Fendrihan.com sells Ogallala, Canadian site. I actually buy quite a bit from there.

I use Ogallala, Dominica, Captain's Choice, Barber Shop (made in the UK), Turtle Bay, and a couple of others.

Making my own Bay Rum is intrigueing, to say the least. To my understanding, the correct bay leaves come from the Carribian. I found in a quick Google search that the bay oil can be found in the US. I may have to try this...
