A good day

[Pipe Dude]

First, my usual order of NC dogwalkers turned up (two bundles of Havana Sandwich robustos), accompanied by 4 free Don Kiki Brown Label samples

Next, the cigars from an auction that I won on another forum turned up (fifteen $5+ NCs that I only paid ?30 for). Three of those little humi pillows too

Then my meat order from Donald Russell arrived (four 14oz T-bones, six extra thick bone-in pork chops, 16 gourmet 1/4lb steak burgers, a shoulder-of-pork joint with crackling, two packs of beef cheeks) and, I hadn't realised when I made the order, they threw in an extra 16 burgers for free! All shock frozen, so I had to completely rearrange the freezer and throw out as much packaging as I could.

And to top it all, the kidney biopsy I've been waiting 8 weeks for, which was supposed to be this Thursday, but was postponed until June 8th because of emergencies, is now back on for Thursday again - so I can finally get treated

Have to say, as days go, yours is turning out to be a good one.

Sorry to hear about the biopsy though, hope you are not too worried about it and good luck on the day.

A very good day on all fronts pipe dude...

Well done...

And good luck...

Cheers, HabanoSy

Sounds good, lets hope the weather holds out a bit longer too!

Good luck with the biopsy.

Fingers crossed for your biopsy bud, enjoy those smokes and that meat delivery, both sound great.

It sounds a good day so far.
Hope the bio is good.

Good luck with the biopsy!

I wish I hadn't looked at the Donald Russell website. ANOTHER expensive taste is not going to help my finances.

I just did the same, looks great but no mention of the cattle breed?

[Pipe Dude]

Thanks, all, for the good wishes eggopp, I wish you the same.

I think it depends on what cuts you order, hence no blanket statement. I guarantee they'd be able to tell you if you asked, though. Yes, it's a bit pricey - but I always wait for offers (they're very regular) before I order and the meat quality and flavour is really worth it. They back that up themselves with a money back guarantee if you're not satisfied.

Heh, as I typed this another offer from them dropped into my inbox.
