Shout out to our Italian Brothers and Sisters.

[El Presidente]

This shout out is to all members  affected by the virus (directly or indirectly) but I wanted to raise a special mention to our Italian brothers and sisters who appear to be doing it tougher than anywhere else right now.  Through Amicigar you have opened the doors to cigar lovers from all over the world.  Your, love, laughter and goodwill comes from your soul.  

Know that we are with you.  If there is a member of the community that is in need of anything through this period (a period that will pass) reach out to myself direct and we will do what we can as a community to make life a little better. 

In broken Italian...  Stai al sicuro e ricorda che non sei mai solo

Thank you Prez. 

We all are in good health (  at this very moment ) even  if who lives in the north of Italy is facing harder times than us.

The lockdown is real and we can go out, one per family, anytime, for buying food, pharmacy, newspaper shop and ,believe or not tobacconist, and few other essential activities.

We have to pray for all people in the world as this is going to hit all of us, in a way or another.

We have set up a video channel for smoking home and talking to friends, since the first day of lockdown, and I suggest that FOH should set up something similar, always open, so people around the world, depending on their time can join in and out easily.

A friend in Jersey wrote me :    Andrà tutto bene !

So yes see you soon, time pass fast.

Stay safe.  This is a good reminder to check up on my family out there.
