[DX1185]

First time giving this stick a try, courtesy of @Pokerjake88. Not usually a Maduro fan but this one definitely hit different!

Just came back from company annual dinner with tenants.a little tired tonight!

[Rushman]

Its budget season, so reviewing spreadsheets while smoking a very young but enjoyable H.Upmann Magnum 54 (OEG JUN 23) with an Alexander Groom interview in the background.

Finding myself once again confused by the linga franca of FOH, I turned to AI for enlightenment. I asked the AI gods to show me "ha_banos on his tod tonight." Here is the response. I'm not sure I have a better understanding at this point. Any of these look right?

Lol I'm really not sure where ai will take us without lots of steer. 

Colloquial northern English vernacular for on my own. Or in this case sans (threw in some French there did you spot it? 😝) FoHUK crew. 

So perhaps there is something in those images...

C&C time. HDM Le Hoyo De San Juan (2017) from our gracious host.

Morning Half Corona with an espresso... 

Was gifted this one CLE Corojo 46 x 5 3/4 by local lounge manager very gently. 

At ~$8 is ok value Honduran. Nothing memorable smoking notes wise, just easy medium cigar. Zesty. Not looking to repeat.

[Midas]

Nudie Canonazo, my fourth and after almost 6 months of rest they’ve developed in to a wonderfully sweet medium bodied smoke. Hopefully they continue to get better in to next summer.

2008 PLMC   Underlying honey with slight wood and “grandmas attic” aged tobacco flavors, as  it progressed sweetness builds and lingers longer and a beautiful floral note on the retro. Very mild.

I love this. Please don't take this negatively in anyway, but on this forum, we have already been in "Grandma's Handbag" many...many times, thanks to @Ken Gargett. And now we are in the attic. 

I'm increasingly feeling sorry for Grandma's all over the world , imagining a legion of young grandsons, roaming around their houses, and possessions sniffing stuff as the go.

Little day out with some work pals. A nice ‘23 M2. The G was better than it looks. Good craic all round.

"Good craic"????? AI to the rescue again! Consulting the generative text models seems to give better results than the image models:

ChatGPT is so much better than google translate when you need to translate English to English:

[MagicalBikeRide]

If someone were actually to say ‘so much good craic on me tod!’ - they’re most likely a spanner.

Derived from "Todd Sloan," a jockey known for riding alone.

I don’t recall seeing jockeys riding tandem, but maybe that’s an English thing 😂

I didn't know on me tod was rhyming slang. So learned something.

Also Tod Sloan was an American. Interesting life story. Very apt choice for this rhyme.

Well, that’s given me an image of “on me Todd” I can’t unsee…

"If someone was to call someone a spanner, what might they mean?" being typed into chatgpt by non UK based members as we speak.

Wow, his story is interesting.  I never knew that these lyrics referred to a real jockey, let alone this very one (Tod Sloan):

Yankee Doodle came to London, just to ride the ponies;

I am the Yankee Doodle Boy.
