    I want to thank everyone for last week's themed Christmas SOTD. It has really been a joy to see everyone's SOTD, participation and holiday spirit. Thanks again from the bottom of my heart.
    Last week before the New Year. Enjoy!

    Good morning Gentleman.
    In the evening we watched Avatar in Pay-TV. That's an amazing movie.
    We found no time to watch it in cinema.
    So we forgot for a while how cold it is in Germany in this time.
    After the shave I'll take my shovel again.
    I'd like to use my Barmah-Hat again because of hot sun.
    But I should rather take a fur cap.

    My personal SOTD:
    soap: Mitchell's
    brush: vintage boar
    razor: Dewsnap
    AS: Old Spice

    Have a nice day!

    Just gave this one a run on the Chinese12k (or PHIG for Dylan) which left me with a very nice smooth polish on the edge. Good enough to leave it alone now.
    I'm usually a one pass shave kind of guy, but have recently been dabbling in the ATG and XTG passes. I feel like a total newbie and extremely uncoordinated when doing these passes, but I just realized tonight this is the most comfortable razor for doing them. I dont know why, but I find it much easier. Even got a few patches I would call BBS
    Some great pics already this week.
    Have a great final week of 2010 gentlemen.

    In Budapest was +8 C in the last few days. I could test my new Barmah-Hat!
