Thread: Christmas shave

Today 24th is the celebration day of christmas here in Finland. I just started heating my sauna. It is 9am. I left tarsoap in sauna so there will be nice fragrance of tar floating around. I can already feel smooth shave on my face and almost can't wait until sauna is heated up. I maid two vihta last summer and frozen them in freezer, I just opened wrapping around those and there is already nice smell of birch.

Merry Christmas!

Hyvää joulua for you too,

We leave sauna for evening. At noon we're about to get into city to watch the declaration of christmas peace. A tradition that has been going on in this city for more than 700 years. Too shame it's damn storm going on right now. Hope we don't lose electricity. There's already flood and the main road to the city is already cut. Luckily there's another, giving us some 20 km more.
The day goes by eating some ham and then just taking it easy. The kids are already grown ups so we do not give any presents.

Well.......I like the idea of celebrating Christmas eve more so than day myself. I have no sauna unfortunately. I have a good stock of food for breakfast snack and supper as does my cat. I will break out my hones today as I am a lousy honer and do some practicing. Maybe the good lord will give me a good edge and I could work out a nice SR shave for the day. That would be nice. Merry Christmas fellas.
