A good day

[Pipe Dude]

First, my usual order of NC dogwalkers turned up (two bundles of Havana Sandwich robustos), accompanied by 4 free Don Kiki Brown Label samples :)

Next, the cigars from an auction that I won on another forum turned up (fifteen $5+ NCs that I only paid £30 for). Three of those little humi pillows too :)

Then my meat order from Donald Russell arrived (four 14oz T-bones, six extra thick bone-in pork chops, 16 gourmet 1/4lb steak burgers, a shoulder-of-pork joint with crackling, two packs of beef cheeks) and, I hadn't realised when I made the order, they threw in an extra 16 burgers for free! All shock frozen, so I had to completely rearrange the freezer and throw out as much packaging as I could.

And to top it all, the kidney biopsy I've been waiting 8 weeks for, which was supposed to be this Thursday, but was postponed until June 8th because of emergencies, is now back on for Thursday again - so I can finally get treated :)

Have to say, as days go, yours is turning out to be a good one.

Sorry to hear about the biopsy though, hope you are not too worried about it and good luck on the day.

A very good day on all fronts pipe dude...

Well done... :top:

And good luck...

Cheers, HabanoSy

Sounds good, lets hope the weather holds out a bit longer too!

Good luck with the biopsy.

Fingers crossed for your biopsy bud, enjoy those smokes and that meat delivery, both sound great.

[satch]

It sounds a good day so far.
Hope the bio is good.

Good luck with the biopsy!

I wish I hadn't looked at the Donald Russell website. ANOTHER expensive taste is not going to help my finances. :D

[monkey66]

I just did the same, looks great but no mention of the cattle breed?

[Pipe Dude]

I think it depends on what cuts you order, hence no blanket statement. I guarantee they'd be able to tell you if you asked, though. Yes, it's a bit pricey - but I always wait for offers (they're very regular) before I order and the meat quality and flavour is really worth it. They back that up themselves with a money back guarantee if you're not satisfied.

Heh, as I typed this another offer from them dropped into my inbox.

mmmm shoulder of Pork - good luck with the medical stuff

[Howling]

Now that is a day packed full of goodies! :rock:

Good luck on the op side of things too. :41:

[Lionhound]

A good day indeed.

Caught me out on the biopsy front though. Had to reread a couple of lines as still in meat mode, so when kidney came up I initially thought it was part of your order.

Anyway, the slow part of my brain is now fully up to speed, and aware of whats happening.

All the very best with your op and my best wishes for a good outcome.

Take care.

Best luck with the biopsy. :849:
