Some of the more fortunate among you may have heard of an Aussie chap named  jawolf. This antipodean individual is the very pinnacle of amiability, a concentration of magnificence that is rare in the average human.

So friendly and brilliant is he that upon complimenting him on a leather lion mask that he'd made, he offered to give it to me, free! As one can expect, however, sending something halfway across the face of the Earth is not a trivial proposition, so the first time he tried to send it, it went missing for several weeks, before finally finding its way back to him. Thankfully though, the second time he posted it, it did indeed end up in Ol' Blighty, and thusly on my face! Huzzah!

It's funny, but it does feel very good to wear, with the expanse of leather gently pressing against my face the way it does. Utterly marvellous. Tom's not a fan, though.
