a Cohiba DC at the balcony and I am curious, where are you like (or your wife allows you) to smoke your cuban cigars...

Within the house I like to smoke almost in all places. Specially in the library and my study room. I also like to smoke in the garden, in the shade in a sunny day and with a good drink. I enjoy much to smoke in restaurants and mainly I enjoy to smoke with friends.

My wife allows me to smoke in all places. She at all does not bother the good aroma of a good puro.

On the other hand, I feel pain by the people whom it has to leave its house to smoke. I feel more pain by the people who live in cold places and must freeze their ____ to be able to smoke.

Same place I smoke my non-Cubans.

Seriously though, the wife hates this habit and would prefer I smoke my cigars 20 paces from the house. I do on occasion smoke in the house while I'm posting. But when the weather is nice I enjoy an outdoor smoke.

Never smoke in the house persay..we have a ventilated smoking room just for that pupose...After my Dad
passed on several years ago, we cleaned his home
we thought the ceiling were always a dark beige
color...not! it was the stainning from his cigarettes - he smoked 3 packs a day.

I'm banished to the deck. Not bad though...I like to be outside. When I smoked cigarettes I never smoked indoors either.

My favorite place to smoke is in my boat with a fishing pole in my hand and a Cardinals game on the radio.

On the deck in the spring summer fall (usually in the hot tub on the deck) or in the living room by the fireplace in the winter/rain.
I will never have a home without a fireplace!!!!!

See my cig!

Also, once in a while at a cigar friendly bar, but 95% of the time it's outdoors.

I do not smoke in my house ever...my own rule.

In the Shed, two young children, Or down at the club. The shed is fine in the summer sat in the old leather chair sorting out my fishing gear. I prefere the club though. Like minded gits like me where we can talk rubbish and smoke whatever takes yer fancy. Its also nice that each person smokes their own cig/cigar, CC or NC and it never becomes a matter of discourse just one of interest.

quote:

A nice cup of tea, slice of cake and a Cuban. What more is there!

It's funny how different we are even though we share a common language. My tastes run more to some high quality bourbon, German/Irish dark beer and a Cuban.

Tea and cake with a Cuban, to me, seems odd.

Not that there's anything wrong with it.

I can smoke anywhere I like, as long as it's not in our apartment. I don't like smoking outside, except on the stillest of days, so I usually head to one of a couple bars/cafes within a 15-minute walk from home.

My girlfriend's dad's smoking room. Fortunately, they go out of town a lot and have me watch their dogs frequently.

Also, I'm attracted to decks. Whenever I'm driving or riding and we pass a house with a back deck, I always have to stare and fantasize.

PJ, the quote at the bottom is a bastardisation of something said by a guy called Worzel Gummage, a series of books and a programme on tv for kids. I added the Cuban bit.
Im looking for something smart to put there. In real life its dark beer (we call it bitter) or, if Im at a function, Port and then Brandy.
Sitting in the anti-room with a Reme Martin VSOP and a #2 on the go, well, beats the hell out of Basra...

pope,
That makes sense now that you've explained the quote.
