Foulkes & Sons S6 E6

‘Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the hovel cigar smoke was floating…’ Apologies to Clement Clarke Moore, whose poem I have just mangled, but yes, it is that time of year, when Foulkes and Sons delivers its Christmas broadcast beamed directly into millions of households across the globe via the magic of His Majesty‘s Internet and associated social media channels. Not unlike the seasonal speeches by the monarch, these festive broadcasts are a true highlight of the year at the Foulkes Broadcasting Corporation and as you will be able to tell very little in the way of forethought or preparation has been undertaken, even though Christmas has been in the diary for some time now and we really should’ve got the hang of it. At least Max and I are wearing appropriate knitwear: his features that well-known Christmas character, Beardie the Yuletide dog Given a total lack of preparation, it quite amazes me that we get anything done at all, but trust me (Hahaha) it really is a bumper issue, taking a cue from Tom Chamberlin, at #therake , we participate in the Internet trend for #unboxing or as we put it in our old-fashioned way unwrapping presents. We #unbox a fabulous lighter, and two boxes of spectacular cigars, including a time capsule from 2016, a hat-trick of cohiba Piramides in the original period case Among the many comical moments that you will be enjoying is the sight of me, and then Max wrestling with a frozen bottle of the legendary #fortnumandmason sparkling tea and we speculate on whether #chaucer mentioned this delightfully potable traditional English beverage in his #canterburytales we also ruminate upon the selection of cigars found in the tomb of #tutankhamun by Howard Carter Just in case #tomathron the amazing CEO of Fortnum and Mason is watching we are very happy for you to mention that #sparklingtea is ‘as seen on Foulkes and Sons’ #unboxingvideo ‪@Fortnums‬ ‪@kirbyallison‬ ‪@HuntsmanSavileRow1849‬ ‪@davidofflondon3525‬ ‪@GQVideos‬ ‪@britishwool‬ ‪@nike‬
