Well I ordered a hamada GP Scuttle on Saturday the 28th June, I got a nice email from Lori on the Monday explaining that the online store couldn't calculate international orders and that shipping to the UK would be $28 and to let he know if that was a problem.
The scuttle arrived on the Friday - 6 days from ordering and a mere 4 days from the last communication, totally amazing I'm still waiting on something I bought from a UK website the day before !
Well the wife got to try it out on the Saturday morning, I used it as well but only after I'd finished her legs so the lather was cold by the time I got to it. This morning though I gained the benefits of the full experience ... what can I say but WOW !!!! I've been using a big mug (very similar in shape to the GP) sitting in a sink of hot water for the last couple of months but this is just so much better it isn't even in the same ballpark. The ridges make creating a lather the work of a couple of seconds and the lather it is so much warmer - unbelievable.
Almost as unbelievable as Mòrag's comment of "well I had nothing to compare it with" when I asked her why she'd not told me how good it was ! - rubbish I say
I've done her legs using my mug before.
