Good questions, Pio. Booze has certainly a role in this setup. - We in Finland do not have any real carnevals, but 1st of May is very close to that. Then it's socially most acceptable to drink and get drunk publicly. My Instagrams

I was staying with a good friend in Helsinki last year while this was going on actually, and it was something else! On the streets, in the parks, in the metro even - haha, it was crazy! The evenings sure weren't quiet...

And apparently, the Finns visit Tallinn for more than their old town too ...like the cheap alcohol available in the old town ![]() Great to have an eyewitness - are you bold enough to come again?

I'm not so much a drinker really myself, but I'll be back in Finland again soon enough! After I get my paws on the new Sigma 50mm, while here at home because goodness knows it wont be cheap over in Finlandia. Much like anything else

I ditto everything above and add the body language of the woman... she seems about to react in some way. Will she help RedButt fix something? Will she put that hand over her mouth? She's so serious. Is she shocked? Or upset that the guy just can't get whatever he's meddling with... meddled? Ted Byrne
