Cigar Smoking Outside

[Badger]

They weren't designed to be smoked outside, the shed is damp and full of garden crap. I am 42 today, I would like to sit here in my study with a nice scottish malt or Emma Richards and my cohiba siglo no 1, my new CD by Vaughn Williams with his Sea Symphony on it. Instead I am looking at huddling at the back of the house in the rain. Is this Fair ???

Blimey, who's exiled you to the wastes of the garden shed? I have a nightly cigar in front of the telly and I got the usual moans and groans from my daughters. I toughed ot out and as they now both smoke, I've had the most delicious revenge by asking them to smoke their foul smelling sticks in their bedroooms. If you've got a study what's the problem ? Get yourself in there before you catch your death light up and pour yourself a Highland Park. Don't know about the Vaughn Williams though.

Wise words, actually it's not SWMBO who has the problem but the teenage daughers who go "Oh you stink". Anyway they are now in their bedrooms studying for their GCSE's. so I have been allowed back in the study with both windows open. Fresh out of Highland park but got a wee Edradour 10 year old on the go.Edradour I hear you say ? Yes famous for 2 things, they are the smallest distillery in Scotland and they make all the blended whiskey for the House of Lords .Enjoy !

Never mind - you will be able to enjoy a drop of Cornish whisky in about 10 years time when the first batch has matured. Try a glass of Paddy's from Cork until then

Would that be the whiskey washed up on the beach and liberated by the locals, to be marketed as Cornish whiskey!!!!
I enjoy a cigar, and yes I get moaned at. At least I get to enjoy peace and quiet with my smoke and a glass of proper whisky, just like the adverts.

Try a pipe instead

Good for the Pugwashian image, something you can flaunt and fiddle with, women like it and it's a good smoke. I smoke mine either in my cockpit or in the garden shed next to the compost. Yes, I've got kids too. Four. But if I smoke it in the house their many friends will smoke their fags inside, too. And that I can't stand. That's why they call me crusty, I guess.

The one thing

I enjoy about falorum life is the rich and diverse vein of culture that is never far away, the opportunity to see pictures from life's other side.
The images conjured along the way of this thread will be uppermost in my mind this evening as I sit with my cracked cup of Maxwell House, eating my apple and listening to my Pearl Carr and Teddy Johnson 78's.

Re: Try a pipe instead

Come off it you lot ! Your houses stink, your boats stink, your clothes stink and your breath stinks - attractive to women - rubbish, unless they also smoke or have lost there sense of smell.
I should know, as I went through the card from pipe to cigars to fags to surgeons knife hence my pseudonym.[frown smile]

Can\'t argue

Wot me? Stink? But you're probably right since that's what the kids say. Thing is, the odd puff on a pipe is no worse than the occasional after-dinner cigar, as long as you don't inhale. And always in the cockpit, never below. Trouble is, I really enjoy it.

Nope - we have started to distil the stuff in the Duchy. And it will be whisky without an 'e', too. Isn't that reserved for the Oirish?
Gave up smoking everything about 5 years ago, and apart from me feeling a bit fitter so is my wallet!!! I didn't believe it would make that much difference, but it did.

Paddy's ? I tried a glass once. It tasted as if Paddy had p*&^%£d in the bottle.
