I take it it's one of the tubed variety? And do you carry a tube of soap? (The man at Trumper's upon hearing my travel needs exclaimed loudly "Use the tube, man!") Mrs. PvE, indeed! Turling, it really does make all the difference, doesn't it? I can't imagine anyone not using one. Why add an extra chore to the day? SWMBO, wonderful handle, from the book "She"? Or the Galloping Gourmet? There is a great site dedicated to wet shaving called BadgerAndBrush.com. Your father's phrase is very elegant -- reminiscent of Anthony Montague-Browne's assessment of the British Navy. Aesthete, is the travel version worth it? I take it it’s one of the tubed variety?

I thought it an elegant turn of phrase. I'd love to think he came up with that one himself. BTW - he used a badger brush, though he didn't use a straight razor.
