Thursday 21st October: Trafalgar Day

[Simon-JG-hr]

In honour of the Battle of Trafalgar, a crushing victory for the British Fleet off Cadiz which signalled the slow collapse of Napoleon's regime, I decided to have a small celebratory cigar. It was sunny, but a little nippy, so I went for a Trini Reyes. Great cigar.

A toast (with cigar or drink): "The Immortal Memory of Lord Nelson and those who fell with him."


PS. What was actually said at the end of the battle onboard Victory:

"Damn the French and Spanish to buggery! First they take my eye, then my arm, and now they've bloody shot me!"

The version of events that didn't make the press...

A partagas presidente for me this evening

A Siglo IV and a quad espresso, as a reward for spending 12 hours converting bitmap images into vectors by hand. (geeky but bloody hard work, and for those in the know, I didn't use live trace!)

La Gloria Cubana Medaille No.3 with coffee.
First time smoking one of these....not bad.
A little mild for me...but overall it was a nice cigar.

No cigar for me unfortunately but now youve told me that Simon, I'm gonna get out of bed and toast the bulldog with a stiff dram.
I may be in france but ......
" Damn the French to buggery! They may be on strike but I'm not ! "

This was technically yesterday, but I had a nice sit down with my first Mag 50 from a Shuckins bomb. Very nice, long smoke there, and I'd been looking forward to trying it for some time. Ultimately, I'd say I like the 46's more, but I'm more than open to smoking a few more to be sure.
