Off topic an I apologize, but I thought I share these two cartoons (from Kevin Kallaugher, better know as KAL to those who read the Economist) to brighten up your day. They're hilarious, especially given the state of politics and economy these days

I've often wondered why hard water is called hard, maybe its due to the difficulty in making a decent lather! Anyway you'll find what works and what doesn't no doubt, I find Trumpers creams good with our hard water in the South West, so it could be an ideal excuse!!!

Enjoy your stay.

Thank you and we're enjoying our stay! Had a nice day today, some shopping and the British museum, everyone was happy I had enough lather for a face and head shave though, but barely, after some serious loading. Gecko had to stay at home, I didn't think of packing him Damn, I didn't pack my Trumpers ... hmm ... maybe I'll have to buy some more

Thank you Robert! Yes, we're house swapping with a family from Ealing, in London. We had curry for dinner (chicken Karai and Peshwari nan for me) and feeling very British

Great pic and shave, Mr K! How is the Korres moisturiser on your skin? Saw this one recently while on holiday. I'm a BIG fan of the Korres products. I rate them very highly.
