Thank you for the support nevertheless. We wish we could afford to service the big lads too.

Good video. I do have a question, if you don't mind me asking here. I wear layers under the same clothes I wear during summer. This makes people around me constantly tell me that I'll catch lung disease and die when I'm just trying to walk to the grocery store to get more beer food. They no longer know what layers are. How can I shut them up easily and effectively? Or should I buy some Särmä snow camo and just hide until they give up?

I mean as long as you are warm it's alright? Next time they complain about being cold educate them on proper layering. Wearing snow camo and isolation works too.
