Seriously, if you bought it form a UK cigar you ring them and they should replace it but feel free to send the rest to me for testing.

Even that Filipino thing from Monday? Lol disaster.

2008 Diplomaticos No. 5. When they smoke well they smoke brilliantly .... this one was just that, brilliant. Ignore the side burn, wasn't the Dippy's fault, nothing could correct it, was just too bloomin' breezy out there in the garden this afternoon

Ha, trust you Arf, I just commented on another thread (Dippy No3)that the No5's were rather nice but disappeared before the No4's. And there you are smoking one like there had suddenly become plentiful again. Of was it your birthday starter?

Well I spent more than half the day trying to get to see Martyn & when I finally got there, after a 5hr delay on the Eurostar & was in agony with abdo pains & unable to accept his kind hospitality of copious amounts of alcohol & generous portions of cold meats & cheese. My apologies Martyn, really hope to take better advantage next time. At least we swapped some interesting cigars & I sealed up the 3 cigar parcels & eventually posted from Aberdeen this morning. So Brian, Tommy & Marc, there are on the way. Please confirm safe arrival.
PS: The night train also broke down at Preston, a replacement engine was eventually found & we were dumped at Edinburgh & told to get on the next train to Aberdeen. Luckily after nipping to the Post Office & getting a taxi, I made my meet with the drug courier with 15mins to spare. The chopper was then delayed by 3 hrs!

Was that your final entry for your blog?
Where the hell did a chopper come from?!

Well, my first ever Behike was rather bloody nice, unfortunately. Anyone know where I can pick some more up for less than a tenner each?

Try a Hoyo de Monterrey Epicure #2 next, more affordable and I prefer them

[butternutsquashpie]

BHK for less than a tenner!
Oh boy, not even in Cuba!

Thanks for the tip PeeJay, will do. As it happens I already have one sat in my wish list ready for the next order, along with a Diplomaticos No. 1. Both of which I pinched from Arrans 'Suggestions for my next batch?' thread. Although it might have to wait a bit because I've spent a wedge on cigars already this month!

How much does a Behike cost in Cuba?

About ?17 each I think, Jeremy?

Quite a bit cheaper then, but no great surprise there. I reckon a holiday to Cuba is on the cards at some point.

just a tad under 17.

a little trip there would be bloody expensive on your side : (

Do it! I am! Using the girlfriend as my cigar mule! She doesn't know it yet mind haha

[butternutsquashpie]

i keep telling people: it's cheaper if you fly into Canada and use SunWing to book a $600 trip to Varadero!!

[PeeJay]

Yeah but apart from the cigars Varadero is like bleedin' Benidorm!
