Dropped by my fave just last night, on the way to the Y. I can swing by there, pick up a drippy stick, drop by the best sub shop in creation on the way back (Capriotti's), and be back here in twenty.Ģ) They have stuff which my fave B&M doesn't. Why should you have to make the cigar smoke-able ?ġ) Because they are close to the office. You are not getting a quality product there. Think I'll dry this stick out before lighting.ĭude. Checked RH on one of their hygrometers sitting inside a glass case. Stopped by Otter's Pocket today to pick up a Perdomo Fresco Maduro. It appears to me that one day long ago some well meaning cigar geek in parched Phoenix Arizona wrote a casual remark how cigars need to be humidified, and ever since then certain perfunctory readers from Dewey Beach to Atlanta and round about to Nawlins all remain firmly convinced that when it comes to cigars, the wetter the better. I believe I spotted some lightning where thunderclouds were forming near the display of cutters, so I dodged out of there in a funk. This place was even thicker than the John Hay factory store in Intercourse. I'm telling you, I think they surplussed these machines from an NFL pre-season sidelines, cause they were misting a mile a minute. And this is in Dull-Aware, where the humidibbiditty does not skimp on a good day in Summer. Four master blasters in a space smaller than the office I am writing this from, a space only large enough for two short aisles. I look round the second aisle, there's another blaster. As I bend down to fetch this single I get blasted in the keister by a second such machine. Lucky I spotted a single in the bin below because you know I got no room. I crab walk down the aisle and almost pull the trigger on a mazo of San Lo. As I bend down to fetch that single, my rear pockets get blasted by a roar of vapor from a horrifying humidifying machine. Lucky I spotted a single in the bin below, because I have zero clue where I'd stash another 25. I very nearly pulled the trigger on a mazo of 25 Perdomo Fresco Maduros. Off to the side of the main cigarette cartons, paraphernalia, and lottery tickets in this second store, they have a small walk in humidor with a creditable selection. Get where I'm going with this? What do you do when you have too many cigars? You go buy more for no good reason. But on the way back, I spotted a cigar store I had never noticed before. Turns out its cigs, paraphernalia, and lottery tickets. One which Paul Stulac had mentioned as being here in Dull-Aware and about to carry his cigars. So today, naturally, I went looking for a cigar store I had never heard of. I suspect that when I close the box there must be monkey business going on. In putting the bike back together, the vacuum hose became kinked, and on Monday the engine cut out without warning on the German autobahn.Just yesterday I got to complaining how my sotweed cylinders keep multiplying out of control.Kevin then accidentally knocked the bike over onto the wing of the car parked alongside (see picture below).On the Sunday morning at the Formule 1 hotel in Calais, Kevin had to remove the supplementary inline fuel filter on Nick’s bike to eliminate the petrol leak that had started in the night.Some statistics to follow, but for now, one bike repair, one accident and one breakdown. (Memo to self: do NOT over tighten the leg straps otherwise the rain will run into your boot) I was wetter than an otter’s pocket, and that’s about as moist as a man who’s cocooned in his one-piece oversuit can get. It’s tipped it down from the moment we left the Hospital, through the Rally start at Goodwood, and until we arrived in Höchberg (near Wurzburg) in Germany on Sunday night. Never mind Après nous le deluge, for the last two days the rain’s been right on top of us. After 11 months’ planning we were finally off! A big thanks to everyone who was there, it was a great moral boost for us. We were given the most encouraging send off from the Birmingham Children’s Hospital on Friday 13 th, and the sun even shone for a few moments.
