Fellow Cigar Smokers:
I have a question to pose to you. Does your significant other let you (regardless of the weather);

I have a finished walk-in attic that in the winter I smoke a pipe in, but not cigars. I did that once and it smelled like crap for a month.

The back porch of my house is enclosed and screened. I smoke out there. In the summer I use the ceiling fan, and in the winter I use a portable propane heater. Of coarse there is patio funiture out there as well as ashtrays.

I love cigars and cigar smoking, but even if my wife had no problem with me smoking in the house, I just wouldn't. Someone else can smoke in there own house, I don't want it in mine.

SWMBO isn't crazy about my occasional cigar so I am banished to the outside.

I smoke my pipe wherever I like but my wife asked that I don't smoke cigars in the house and considering her tolerance of my pipe I am happy to oblige. There is an awesome man room in the works though where cigars will be welcome and I'll likely do all smoking there as well.

I don't currently have a SO so I did not vote. However, I smoke an occasional cigar out on my patio. BTW, who really wants the smell of stale cigar smoke in their house anyway.

Thanks,
Mike

I put an outside room (a fancy verandah) on the side of the house a couple of years ago. It's got a couch, a coffee table and a couple of arm chairs so it's pretty civilised. I always go and smoke out there. It doesn't get freezing cold in Melbourne so I can use it pretty happily about 9 months of the year.

+1 except it's in the 18-wheeler, so whi;e I'm AT work.

Same here. I won't smoke in the house because the aroma becomes an odor and I wouldn't like it myself.

I'd do that, except the nearest cigar show is a hundred miles away! I get to shop there about once a month.

As much as I love the smell of my stash of puros, I prefer to smoke outside.

Well being single I can smoke in my house whenever I feel like it.

On another note, I tend to stop or cut back on my cigar smoking in the winter months.

During the cold weather months I've found smoking cigars just don't taste as good compared to the warmer seasons.

Wow...cigar smokers...it seems that either willfully or not...cigar smoking is not done in the house. Just think what all the residences of Winston and Clementine Churchill must have smelled like??? :ihih:

On the other hand, My Mrs. (bless her), lets me smoke in the house (regardless of weather and yes...I do open a few windows to let in the breeze), because not only does she likes the aroma of cigar smoke, it reminds her (and my too), of times (nostalgia), past, (no need to lock doors / windows, dinner was always served at 7:00pm, school sock-hop dances, stick-ball and playing ice hockey goalie in leather pads and sponge rubber protection, sitting on the porch ect.... OMG I'll stop now :001_rolle), and our houses smelled of Cuban cigar smoke when our Fathers came home from work, our mother's Chanel & Estee Lauder perfume and fresh flowers from the garden.

But don't let me get too far...during Summer, Spring and Fall; I do take it upon myself to smoke on the porch, on the patio in back, taking a walk with the Mrs. or at my favorite sports bar.

I'm partial to the backyard by the firepit-gotta take advantage of the only good thing about southern Kalifornia- the weather!!

I smoke outside out of courtesy to SWMBO. Since it is too cold I am holding off smoking until the temps warm up, or if I travel to a warmer place.

I enjoy my smokes in self-imposed exile in my "Cigarage" Lounge. Old leather chair. Electric IR heater. Laptop. Life is good.

Luckily there are several places to purchase and smoke cigars in the Dallas-Ft Worth area. I prefer smoking one along my fellow lovers of the leaf with a drink in hand and watching sports on the big screen.

When I return home I must remove my outer clothes in the garage and go directly to the shower.

We had a 1 bedroom apartment in our upstairs at one time. It has it's own heating and cooling so the odds of seepage are low. I now have possession of it for a man room.

I am forced to smoke outside, but would love to have a man-den/cave equipped with pool table, a bunch of flat screen TVs, and all the alcohol you couldn't possibly consume in a lifetime :)

I smoke on the couch in front of my 65 inch tv the way God intended!

I smoke outside on a nicely appointed covered patio. I have a stereo, very nice furniture, and a great view of a lovely yard. I use a small space heater if it's especially cold. Ceiling fans are everywhere for the warmer days. Also, I have a nice little set-up in the forward part of a 2-car garage. As mentioned by others, I have a wireless network for when I want to surf (B&B, of course:thumbup1:)

I smoke cigars in my house every day. Also my pipe with lots of latakia. And actually, no one has ever been able to tell that I do. I have asked people who would tell me the truth. What they universally say is that my house smells like wood smoke or a camp fire. I heat with wood exclusively, and have done so for over 30 years, so my house has acquired a smell of wood smoke that cigars or pipes can't overcome. (plus I'm single)

I find that I prefer smoking when the weather is nice, so outside is usually the first option anyway! I am single though and will smoke and ash in the bed if I so please (I don't please, but I could!). Still, cigars for me are best in tandem with bonfires and a fine Cottonwood ale

My wife will never let me smoke in the house. Hopefully one day I can build a "man cave" to smoke my cigars!!:thumbup1:

Nothing better then laying in bed smoking a cigar as my SWMBO smokes my pipe
