No more than Googling it for you.

I got 36 thousand hits for 'beeswax soap recipe'.

Bound to be a bit of variation then?
And you'll be able to tell us a little about glycerine when you've finished your research Andy. and I don't mean by Googling it directly.

A symptom of the times RAB. It must have happened a lot earlier than we realised. :)

So, the real question is . . .

"Has anyone got a favourite soap recipe and method described on Google that is suitable for a novice soap-star with no kit, to save the expense of a book which might or not prove to be suitable?

I'm sure that there are people out there that make soap, do you have a link to share with Andy?

Here is one, but I don't make soap. Lye is caustic soda, not washing soda; heed the warnings well.
