From December, 2011, when my own "Eureka!" moment came (again), and I started looking for all my old gear, the glass mug I had been using for the infrequent social occasions I want to look especially spiffy was still on the corner of my wash stand, there several preceding it had taken headers from and been broken (and still more recently, the small lathering bowl that comes with the VDH set has done the same).
I told myself i was going to get one of those rubber mugs because of my clumsiness, and even printed out the page it was featured on, and then went out to the Antique stores and Thrift Shops looking for something very cheap and very useful. Besides the glass mug, I've had a plastic advertising mug from a real estate firm as my primary lathering mug. A couple of months after the reformation, and arriving in here, I was attracted to many accoutrements of shaving, but resisting.
And I did, in February and in March. I had two mugs, two brushes, and the same five DE razors (plus a single Injector and single SE for which I had no blades at first). Now, it's mugs and brushes that got past my armor in a rush . .
Do the rubber mugs float like the plastic ones?
