Not Badgers ..... horses .....

Shaving brushes were made from horse hair - and the horse hair carried anthrax spores

I've used an electric razor all my life --- but I remember the best brushes, at least at one time, used to be made from badger hair?

(My 'usual' bedtime is 1.30am... but I can easily slip towards becoming nocturnal. Once I do go to sleep, it can be for anything up to 12 hours. I was once described as the personification of inertia )

If the concern is septic or small problems then barbers go apply Alum and aftershave lotion...which should neutralize lot of unwanted "Things"

Did you update your sense of humour since 1953, Barry?

It's very easy. You just go to a library, and they plug you into a machine, and Wow! ten seconds later wives, mothers-in-law and so are no longer items of fun.

Of course, it is not free here in India --- but I think it is available!
