Popular Post LordAnubis Posted January 15, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted January 15, 2015 I've been thinking about what to do to follow up on my 30 Day Churchill Challenge. I thought i should do something on this R&R to Hong Kong and Ireland, but never really pulled my finger out and actually did something about it . Anyway, so i'm sure you all know about my recent failure of a Cuba trip. The insurance company were being absolute f$ers about the claim but, as they found out, I'm a persistent little bastard. I had given up on it and the last few weeks I've just been in it to give them the shits. Then I get an email from a senior person from their claims dispute department who says they will pay my entire claim!!!! I really don't need this money, I considered it a goner long ago, but now I will get it (well the guy has said he will lodge it for payment and should be in my account next week... i haven't actually received any money yet). This windfall, if you will, is much better off in the hands of those who really need it. So i present to you STOP PUSSYFOOTING AROUND AND SMOKE THAT OLD BASTARD!!! The rules are simple, I have been given exactly AU$2076.85, lets round it out to 2077 shall we. For every year of box date the cigar you smoke has, i will pay $1. It's that easy. Smoke something with 10 years age, i pay $10, smoke something with 2 years of age i pay $2, smoke something rolled yesterday, i'll pay $1 for your efforts. Post up what you're smoking and how much age it has from the box date. Try and post a picture of the cigar, but if you can't that's ok, we believe you Please post the name of cigar (if you even know it) and age, you can post box date if you wish but i'm trying to make it easier on myself to tally up all the ages, so if you do post the box date please make sure you have the age as well written in the post. This commences as of last night (14th January) and concludes on 17th of February when i return to work. The cigar must be smoked within this time period. All money will go to the Nicaraguan Childrens Feeding Mission and the excellent work our fellow FoH member Rob (FreefallGuy) does. I will total up how ever many years of age has been smoked in this thread and that total amount will be paid to Rob, to a maximum of AU$2077. Payment will be made on the 20th Feb, unless the insurance doesn't actually come through with their promise of payment, and if that happens I'll still maintain my commitment but will pay in March after my pay goes into my account (normally the 15th). Don't be scared to post up even if you cigars are only 1 or 2 years old... every little bit helps. I'll provide proof of payment at the end. Cheers, post away, don't be shy and i look forward to seeing you blokes pull out all those old old sticks you've been keeping in the back corner of the humidor. Light those bastards up, they won't give you any satisfaction sitting in the humidor! Get that smoke into ya! I'm going to be going to JJ Fox in Dublin so no doubt i'll find some aged stock there, and of course Ajays in London will have something old for this cause too so i'll be sure to grab something while i'm there. May your smoking be long and pleasurable. And a special shout out to Rob who selflessly donates his time and efforts in making a difference to a young generation in need. The cause is real, it is always there and if anyone ever has some money to spare you can always contact him directly for your own donations. I'll kick this off, with a Mag 50 from 2012, so i'll round up to 3 years = $3 Mus 25 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oliverdst Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 I think one of the following is my oldest: HOYO EPICURE #2 1991 MONTECRISTO #1 1980 PARTAGAS CORONAS 1997 I think Monte is gone but have to check. Everytime I smoke a 15+ years old cigar I like to remember what I did that year. Usually having some fun as I was a young Oliver. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Puros Y Vino Posted January 15, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted January 15, 2015 (edited) What a brilliant idea! Due to the weather, I won't be able to smoke this week. But for your consideration, I smoked a clear Havana from 1926 last week. A Peter Schuyler Perfecto. Proof attached. Edited January 15, 2015 by LordAnubis Because it's you... ok then! 111+89 = $200 !!! 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
