El Presidente Posted May 31, 2011 Posted May 31, 2011 Popped into kens yesterday on the way home. ken was dressed in his best attire comprising slippers, tracksuit pants up to his armpits (the elastic had broken and it was the only way to keep them up) ......and beanie Anyway....a couple of things I noted. This is the third straight time he has offered me a Monte C.....the cigar he so very much maligns. Also...a seriously brilliant glass of Rioja red.....and an actual real wine glass. On his deck for two hours we discussed everything from Kiwi's to Arsenal, Rugby to politics. NOT ONCE DID HE ***** ABOUT HIS MONTE C !!! For what its worth I enjoyed mine. Tons of milk chocolate. If it had a tad more body it would be an excellent cigar. Monte C : 89 Wine : 94 KBG Dress Sense : Priceless

Monte C : 89 Wine : 94 KBG Dress Sense : Priceless you were smoking a monte C. are you quite certain i was? you sold the horrors to me so you get to smoke them. still never had a decent one. it was a sort of wine glass. six visits without breaking many gets you that. break another one it you'll be drinking out of those slippers.
sblevit Posted May 31, 2011 Posted May 31, 2011 I have boxes of both the "C" and the "D" and the "D" is like the "C" on steroids. Even my girlfriend (err, ex-girlfriend) who knows nothing about cigars, took a few puffs of the "D" and proclaimed it to be a "chocolate cigar"!
El Presidente Posted May 31, 2011 Author Posted May 31, 2011 I should also point out that he was about to complain about the draw of the cigar......until he realised he hadn't cut the foot
OZCUBAN Posted May 31, 2011 Posted May 31, 2011 In the words of KAHMAL "why is everybody so unkind" Best double act i have seen in ages you crack me up
Ken Gargett Posted May 31, 2011 Posted May 31, 2011 I have boxes of both the "C" and the "D" and the "D" is like the "C" on steroids. Even my girlfriend (err, ex-girlfriend) who knows nothing about cigars, took a few puffs of the "D" and proclaimed it to be a "chocolate cigar"! i've actually enjoyed the D. comparing it to a C is the unkindest of cuts. and it is not true to say i had not cut the foot. i cut the foot on one and then lit the other. my first thought was that rob had sold me yet another plugged cigar.
CigarmanTim Posted May 31, 2011 Posted May 31, 2011 slippers Are you sure that was Ken Gargett? I've never seen him wear anything on his feet....must be some foot fetish or something.
Dbone Posted May 31, 2011 Posted May 31, 2011 I have to admit, albeit not the popular vote, I like your style Kenny
maalouly Posted May 31, 2011 Posted May 31, 2011 On his deck for two hours we discussed everything from Kiwi's to Arsenal, Rugby to politics. I was told it was STRICTLY an SB meeting!
Ken Gargett Posted May 31, 2011 Posted May 31, 2011 I was told it was STRICTLY an SB meeting! the word 'strictly' was never used, however, i would suggest that rugby, politics, cricket, sport etc etc is all we ever discuss at SB meetings. what on earth do you discuss at SB meetings down south?

I would suggest that the SB meetings, as you call them, are not really meetings at all. And btw. Arsenal are still the only EPL team to ever go undefeated through the season. Tom

Arsenal are still the only EPL team to ever go undefeated through the season. Tom and i would add that had that glorious team come up against the current premiers, they would have given them such a lesson that the weekend's thrashing by barca would have looked line ball. what a wonderful team that was. and as for meetings, i give you the oxford definition... i think we qualify! <H3 class=partOfSpeech>noun</H3> an assembly of people for a particular purpose, especially for formal discussion. an organized event at which a number of races or other sporting contests are held. a situation when two or more people meet, by chance or arrangement.

A glorious team indeed !!! <H3 class=partOfSpeech>noun</H3>an assembly of people for a particular purpose, especially for formal discussion. an organized event at which a number of races or other sporting contests are held. a situation when two or more people meet, by chance or arrangement. As for the definition of meeting, if the discussion is rugby, politics, cricket, sport etc etc at SB meetings then you certainly are pushing the envelope there. Is not the purpose of a meeting to achieve a common goal? Perhaps a 'gathering' may be a more appropriate description as I do not believe that I have ever seen an attempt at achieving a common goal. Unless that common goal is to empty as many bottles of wine as possible. That having been said I think I will go for a meeting after work today with a couple of mates. Goals: smoke at least one cigar each and polish off a minimum of three bottles of wine.. oh and figure out a solution for world peace.
