Because you crossed your legs.

Ashtrays are more my thing (Depending on where we have to shove..............er, I mean what we have to do with them).

I've always struggled with rings (If you know what I mean).

O Gis a clue man........

[Robusto]

It will be alright!

[Robusto]

Not complicated.

[Robusto]

Go For It!

Dead simple.

Post a picture of your ashtray.
Give it a caption or tell a story about your picture.
It can be empty, with or without cigar or full of butts as you wish.
You may post more than one picture of more than one ashtray.
If you are shy about putting yourself in the picture, put something that shows it belongs to you.
Photo it on your table or up a mountain. Wherever.

This isn't about the most flash ashtray. It's more about an attempt to amuse.

I'll elect the winner and award a Havana cigar on a totally random basis.

Expect no logic.

Please... Go for it!

How To Get A C To A Plus For Your Coursework

In my house, I found these ashtrays...



A small, stupid thing for people on cigarettes if they come round.




A faux crystal monster that my parents used to fill with hundreds and hundreds of cigarette butts when I was a small kid. (Both departed).




This small, white ashtray from Sainsbury's (circa ?1.50) is my second favourite ashtray. When I looked for it, I'd forgotten that I'd lobbed an Edmundo outside the back door a few weeks ago. I believe if you bathe in brackish nicotine juice that you put off gnats. There is a bonus, therefore.




The white ashtray on the window sill (circa ?3.50 from Sainsbury's) is my very favourite ashtray. The indents on either side are for cigarettes. Not fat enough for a good cigar. To be frank, as someone wrote earlier, I don't really use an ashtray that much. I like to hold my cigar, even when resting it. We all try to maintain a fat ash because that's a great smoker's game, yes? We try to be clutter-free in this home, so white slips in without a big scream, as it were. Anything abstract or hip is confined to the garden. My back wall is more interesting that those viewed on Eastenders or Coronation Street as my kids have graffiti'd OEUF on the wall. This means egg in French, but I don't know what on earth they were doing with the egg fixation, really. We are open tolerant types, so we encourage and bless. (I did have words when the C word was etched indelibly on a bedroom wall. We do need restraint, I feel). They're into drum and bass, and we all know how evil that is.


I know you could enter this competition in a more sparkling way than me, but I just felt I needed to kick this month's bully rammer off. I know an international spot around here where I could have filmed a meaningful vid. The ashtray would have been in my hand, the international background would have been the subject of a big zoom, my cigar would have been shared with bystanders. All for next time as it's snowing here today.

Meanwhile in my shack closet moments I do have a nifty little circular ashtray which I like to play with when I'm on my own.

"Well Jackson".

Please view - and please post yours.

You guys are very funny!

I have got to get up to speed on computer tech to compete.

Well done, lads!
