    Problem with keeping the humidity level in my humidor

    Hi Thanks for the feedback so far. I keep the humidor in a closet of mine and it is the coldest part of the flat. I just feel that the humidity sinks faster now than what it used to when I first got the humidor. Maybe I just have to refill with water more often :-)

    Problem with keeping the humidity level in my humidor

    Hi I have a small humidor and after preparing it with a Boveda One Step Humidor Seasoning Pack I have been able to keep the humidity level pretty good with a Heartfelt Humidity Tube. But over the last year I'm having problem maintaining the humidity level in the humidor so at the moment I'm...

    Tom Yum Pak - Thai Soup Recipe Wanted

    Hi I'm not familiar with that soup...what is in it? I do enjoy soups like tom yam goong (the spicy and sour shrimp soup) and tom kha gai (sour chicken in coconut).

    What was your Christmas Menu?

    Hi In Norway quite a lot of people eat pork steak where we roast it so that the fat skin becomes nice and crispy :D This is served with sauerkraut and a red cabbage mix and other vegetables. It is also served with some meatballs and small white sausages (see photo below :-) And for dessert we...

    Too Cold for the Smoker?

    It has been down to about 0 degrees Fahrenheit here in Norway where I live and that is not the best conditions for enjoying a cigar :-(

    My trip report from Phnom Penh

    Thanks. Good point....I do love to travel and I think it is great fun to write the trip reports. It is sort of a diary for myself and it is actually fun to read the old reports that I have on the homepage. But it is a bit of work putting the reports together...right now I'm working on the Dubai...

    My trip report from Phnom Penh

    Hi My wife and I went to Vietnam and Cambodia during Easter this year. This is the last part of the trip report and this time we have come to Phnom Penh, the capitol of Cambodia. It is not really a main tourist destination and it does not have a number of attractions like some other cities. But...

    Feel free to give me any useful advice when it comes to Hong Kong. Looking at electronics is always fun and I'm also into watches :-)

    I'm going to Hong Kong

    Hi I'm going to Hong Kong soon and I'm just wondering if anyone knows about any good cigar shops and how the prices are. And if you have been to Hong Kong and have some useful general info for me, feel free to share it :-)

We only got to see Ho Chi Minh...

    My flight with Emirates A380 on business class

    Yeah, that would have been quite something. If they can build a couple of showers for first class passengers I'm sure it would have been possible to make a cigar room :laugh:

    My flight with Emirates A380 on business class

    Hi Yeah, flying Emirates on business class was a pretty nice experience...just imagine what the first class it like :cool: And trying out the new A380 was also great fun. This was a business trip so the expenses got covered - but the price itself was amazing for a trip like this. Now I'm...

    My flight with Emirates A380 on business class

    The first class seat was pretty good and the table that was folded in front of me when eating felt like it was a square meter. I also had a big screen (17” I think) with the ICE system which is excellent. This can give you hundreds of channels with movies, TV, music, games…all on demand of...

    My flight with Emirates A380 on business class

    Can I just post a separate answer to continue the story I wonder? When we got out of the plane in Dubai there was lots of chaos as the plane had arrived late and many had missed their connections (like we did). We started by going to an Emirates counter and after a while in line we got...

    My flight with Emirates A380 on business class

    The lounge in the back of the plane was great. We had champagne there and sat in the sofas as the “fasten seatbelt” sign was lit due to turbulence. In the lounge it was also possible to get some light snack and of course there was room to stretch the legs. After a while in the lounge we went...

    My flight with Emirates A380 on business class

    We came into the plane on the upper deck and we were seated in the front. I had seat 8G but because of the configuration (1-2-1) I was seated a bit too far from my colleague – it is easier to understand when you look at http://www.seatguru.com/airlines/Emirates_...Airbus_A380.php. But this was...

    My flight with Emirates A380 on business class

    The Emirates lounge was nice but I think I have to say that the Malaysia Airlines lounge in Kuala Lumpur was better when it comes to facilities (chairs, layout, showers etc). But the selection of food in the Emirates lounge was pretty amazing. Cold appetizer such as salmon, trout, shrimp, salad...

    My flight with Emirates A380 on business class

    In the beginning of 2009 I came across a good offer on Emirates Airlines to Asia and as a colleague and I was going there, we decided to go for it. The price was £1350 per person for a round trip from London to Bangkok and in addition to this I bought tickets from Stavanger to London and Bangkok...

    Transformers 2

    Hi I'll see it when it opens here in Norway but the trailer is not very good...it tells you nothing about what the movie is all about...but as a friend of mine said "maybe there is no plot in the movie" :-) Well, he is probably right ;-)
