Something tells me it is not OK to have a friend ship me a carton of decent cigarettes. I've been puffing away at the thai marlboros, wishing I had a box of Shermans. Wishing I knew a great tobacco shop in Bangkok that had all sorts of variety.

I guess that is just a pipedream, right?

Donbury,

No need to go to those measures. Not aware of shermans but assume they're US. Try London, a fair fag for those used to smoking B&H (Tipped).

A very well stocked tobacconist is situated immediately opposit the Londoner pub ( corner soi33) on Sukhumvit. An acceptable replacement should be found there.

..Shermans.

Try to find out where you can buy them in dutyfree shops around Asia and find friends travelling there, preferably non-smokers.

I do this with mny Camels (no-filter) which you just cannot buy in Thailand.

Vice versa, when I go out always bring swome friends their brand.

For a smoker, any cigarette is a decent cigarette, providing it delivers an adequate amount of nicotine, isn't it?

Or did we miss something? And by the way, I'm sure we did,...

I missed smoking Superkings when I arrived but have settled with a brand I smoked twenty years ago in the UK State Express 555.

have you tried them? I do 40 times a day

Are no longer available in the UK, funny old world
