Another Christmas stamp from Finland.
This stamp, of 1998, depicts a tall Christmas tree with three elves running round it, a fox peeping from the back and two birds joining in the fun.
The photo of the metal fox is from the gates of the Globe Theatre, London.
The knitted Christmas trees were my knitted Christmas effort of 2016
I appreciate that Fir trees / Christmas trees and Holly are not found in Mediterranean gardens and do not feature at all in THE MEDITERRANEAN, GARDEN, the journal of the Mediterranean Garden Society, however, if you are ever in mainland Greece and the heat on the beach gets too much for you head for the mountains and cool off under a Fir tree.
This is the last Christmas stamp I have so I will take a break for a few days.
Wishing you all a Happy Christmas and All The Best for 2018.
