Dunhill’s My Mixture No.33

10

April

Long long time ago, well, that’s about 100 years ago, Alfred Dunhill kept a book of different, unique cigarette mixtures requested by individual customers. I was like, Wow, during that time the cigarette business was so one-on-one and personal type that if it was done today, it’ll be unimaginable.

Nowadays everything have to move fast and so comes commercialization. There’s no time to cater your personal needs anymore. Everyone smoke the same type of ciggies, use the same type of shampoo, toothbrush, cars, shoes, etc. Who cares what blend you want? Just smoke original, Light, or Menthol lah! But Dunhill decided to bring those special blends back in their Limited Edition release.

My Mixture No.33
A rich blend with a taste mellowed by exotic Bahia tobacco. Inspired by a recipe rediscovered by in our historic “My Mixture” books.

Opening up
Vintage-style cigarette box format. Covered with a layer of aluminum foil to seal-in freshness.

Dunhill Top Leaf

I still remember back then during year 2000 or so, when the English Premier League matches were broadcasted on TV2, it was sponsored by Dunhill. Before and after the matches, and during intervals too, there’ll always be this “Gaya, Mutu, Keunggulan/Style, Quality, Excellence” commercial breaks by Dunhill. Kinda annoying la really, but without them, I won’t be able to get free EPL matches on TV! That’s why I love them. LOL!

Load’em up, put it on your mouth and shoot yourself dead, with these fine-ass cigarettes.

Only the finest Virginia top leaf tabacco makes it into each and every cigarettes in this packet. Talk about perfection, this is Dunhill’s philosophy. No one is perfect in this world, but being a perfectionist doesn’t mean the person is perfect, but they always seek perfection in everything they do.

Btw, smoking is bad for health, mmkay?

First of all, Adrian Lee of Siensation.com, if you see this, I do hope that you still remember the Extra Large Pack of Dunhill I brought back from Melbourne for you. I’ve reserved a pack of Dunhill’s Limited Edition for you. So, hopefully you can come over to Miri and claim it from me. You’ve been to Tokyo, Hong Kong, and all over the world, but mcb! Miri very far meh? Take AirAsia lah, cheap cheap, don’t don’t bring any luggage la ok, they now charge RM5 for every luggage, overweight one will be charged on top of that RM5!

Anyway, these are the left overs after a series of gifts distribution.

The ETouch D20 Double SIM Cellphone

20

February

This is the cellphone that I might get in the next couple of days. I’ve been looking for a double SIM card (simultaneously operating) cellphone for quite some time now, and I think I’ve found my phone. It’s so troublesome carrying two cellphones in my pockets.

ETouch D20 Double SIM Cellphone
ETouch D20 Double SIM cellphone. Not very fancy, but elegant enough.

Double SIM card slot
Double SIM card slot. Double the phone calls, and a less chunky pocket. I like!

It’s a China phone no doubt, what isn’t Made in China nowadays? But it’s warranty is carried by a reputable company, and it lasts for a year!!

This phone is selling for RM739 at Art Photo Studio in Miri’s Boulevard, and the Nokia Shop of Sibu’s New Delta Mall. If you’re interested, I could help get you a special online rate, delivered via PosLaju direct to your home. PM me :D
