El Presidente Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 Carol started the La casa Del Habano in 1995 it is located on the French side. She skrimped and saved to get it done and developed a loyal clientelle from around the world including members from FOH. Carole loves cigars and loves her clients. She was proud of what her and her husband had developed. Life was good. ....and then hurricane Irma hit September 17. Carol lost everything. Four months later and the insurance assessors still haven't come back to her. The store is a writeoff. What the flooding didn't get, the collapsed ceiling did. While she is hopefull of rebuilding her LCDH, right now she is struggling to make ends meet. Can we give her a hand? I will put up a box of one of my favourite cigars in the Saint Luis Rey Lonsdale APE JUL 01. They are perfectly rolled. Every $10 donation gets a ticket in the draw for it. If you donate $50, you receive 5 tickets. Donation is to be made to Caroles PayPal account: [email protected] *Do not mention tobacco/Cuba or anything else. Just Donation: Irma Relief Fund : Name: Joh Blogs : FOH Handle: Generous bastard. Carol will provide me a summary of contributors February 28th and we will draw the winner on the 1st of March. i hope you can lend a hand 1 1 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post El Presidente Posted January 30, 2018 Author Popular Post Share Posted January 30, 2018 PayPal is a pathetic whiny arsed operation. The day a competitor or competing technology leaves them as road buffet is the day I will open up a magnum of Krug.
