The Colonel, with the Cigar, on the Balcony

The Colonel (aka Detective Thwaites) puffs up a Pacific Cigar storm on deck at Wigtoft, a fitting end to a night of DAC - dinner, ale and Cluedo (Two wins to Stu, one to Fritha, one to Terri and a big fat zero for Detective Thwaites!).

This Pacific Corona, made in the Philippines, was my first quality cigar. Fruity and mild, with hints of rum, it was most enjoyable and gave me some indication as to why cigars are so popular, and so highly valued. Though I won't be rushing out to buy more, Andy P's Cuesta-Rey Centenario is now very eagerly anticipated.

JT rolled a fair dinkum yahtzee, early on the Saturday morning, to win something of a Coup d'Etat... yahtzeeeEEEE!!!!!

  • I don't think I will be given a job at the C.S.I. lab in a hurry!
    A great time was had by all at Wigtoft Manor....Thanks to Rev Stu,Miss Burgen,Prof Frank and Wendy White.

    P.s. Yahtzee next time for high stakes? Cluedo has been mysteriously lost.....

    P.p.s. Stuey,I tried to have a go at the second half of the Pacific,not recomended.

  • Last time JT lost in a game of risk, the fist came down and the toys were thrown, sounds like he's getting mellow in his old age, or maybe the colonel's been smoking his own herbs and spices?

  • next time you roll those 5 dice of the same number, try yelling "Yam", that's what the French call it - go figure

  • Terri will be yelling something at the end of it.....And might well be along the lines of "Yam"

    My word verification was "Gahzeze" I reckon that sounds even better!?
