I really fancy going outside smoking a huge maduro toro and reading a book, with no wind what so ever, ahh I forgot what the sun feels like it's been so long. Nothing like seeing blue neon smoke rising in the suns rays and not being disturbed by the slightest breeze.
Night time smoking is slowly becoming slightly barable without some form of electric/gas heater so things are looking up slowly.
Anyone else got the winter cigar smoking experience blues :frown:

Though i do recall getting back from holiday in September, and having my first Cigar on Uk soil. Sat at the table in the garden, ipod on , closed my eyes took a draw and inhaled what i anticipated to be the scent of heaven, and thought, hang on a minute, this cigar smells like Dog piss. Infact it was dog piss, as the bastard had cocked his leg on the chair as i was relaxing.
Kinda ruined the moment

Sat outside a pizza express last night with a double espresso and a beautiful Cohiba robusta, enjoying it so much that it was only when I finished it and started to walk home that I realised I had hypothermia :s:

Mind you, it was only a few weeks ago that I spent two glorious weeks on a beach in Thailand, chain smoking some of Habana's finest so I guess I shouldn't complain too hard :smoke:

I did have the outside problem until I came up with the genius solution of smoking in the porch, its no 10 Manc St but its better than the bitter cold outside along with the rain... also wouldnt mind a holiday in Spain or somewhere similar Dave, Ive booked Kiev for April but thats not exactly the Costa weather wise...

Ah, I long for the day of sitting on my patio deck looking out over Lake Erie smoking a nice stogie, just enjoying life and letting my fat hang out.( Sorry if anyone got a bad visual of the fat hanging out thing.)

I was hating the weather until I hooked up the electric in the shed and got the heater going :rock: It's not the shed of dreams, as it's of the old rickety garden variety, but it keep the rain off and heat in.
But I am counting the days till a spring time US herf with about 1000 of my closest BOTL 97 more days! :whoo:

Gentlemen I share your pain. I haven't had a smoke in weeks. It's just too damn cold out and firing up the gas grill inside the screenhouse doesn't cut it.
How I yearn for the Spring & Summer weather when I can relax out on my front porch with a good cigar, several bottles of beer and a ball game on the radio.

We've been drenched in rain of late here in California--it's been a week since I could venture out and enjoy a smoke.
I'm not complaining though--we seriously need the water!
