Yesterday the BIL came around for lunch and brought two Havana cigars with him. That's fine, but he wanted me to smoke one of them. :eek:

I haven't smoked in 8 years and really didn't want the bloody thing but I smoked it so he wouldn't be offended because I'd spurned his $20 cigar. :rolleyes:

Today I have THE most disgusting taste in my mouth which I can't get rid of no matter how many times I clean my teeth.

Oh well, just thought I'd get that whinge off my chest :p

Coincidentally, I was offered a cigar on Saturday evening. My son - who is heading overseas for a while - had some of his mates around. One of them brought me a cigar as a special treat. Helluva nice gesture from a good bloke whom I've known since he was in kindergarten.

However, I haven't had a smoke now since February 2004. I almost accepted the cigar because I didn't want to offend my son's mate. But I didn't. Instead I tried hard to explain why I was turning down his thoughtful gift. I think he was a little disappointed but I hope he wasn't offended.

Tough one! But - I know that I am merely a recovering smokaholic - not a former smoker. One highly satisfying drag and I'll be back on the bloody things again.

Gave up smoking just before Christmass but still had a heap of good cuban cigars from spain and egypt so I promissed myself two on our last holliday .
1 watching the sun set at ayres rock with a nice red
2 on my birthday with a good glass of red

Enjoyed them both and had no after taste , so craigb mabye you should have been drinking as you consumed the cigar. http://www.woodworkforums.ubeaut.com.au/images/icons/icon10.gifhttp://www.woodworkforums.ubeaut.com.au/images/icons/icon10.gif Works for me

I used to be a smoker but never big on cigars. Bloody awful things if you ask me. I could never see the value in 'em. *cough* :cool:

G'Day All,
I'm a smoker (10 per day), and before anyone starts, I know it's no good and a filthy habit, but we all have our vices. I don't like the larger cigars but I do have a weakness for and "Old Port" (the tipped ones) every now and then!...:p
