    Lost A Dental Crown

    I had a root canal last week, and have to have a crown fitted in a few months. Was I supposed to put my pipe down? I didn't. I left it 24h, but that was it.

    Sharing Pipes

    I share my pipe with my wife all the time, and like Joeval, (young(ish) and British) people do ask surprisingly frequently. Friends? No worries. If nothing else, I can drink half their beer when they're coughing, after I 'forgot' to tell them not to inhale. Family? My kids are the only members...

    A Christmas Present To Myself

    Thick walls. Should be nice - really nice finish, I love shiny rustication/sandblasting.

    How Often and Where Do You Smoke

    Typically, during the week, I'll have a small bowl (usually my Falcon) on the drive home from work. If it's not raining, or too windy, I might take the wife for a walk and have another on the way around (where my choice is more free - I stick to Aros in the car, as they don't seem to stick...

    Zippos That Won't Light

    My wife's gave up last night too. Must be something going around. Turned out just to need a new flint (cannibalised from a pack of cheapie disposables) Phew.... It was fun watching her trying to light her cigar from my pipe zippo. "Turn it sideways!" "Eh?" "Sideways!!"

    My New Obession: Gawith, Hoggarth & Co.

    I enjoyed some Bob's CF in my bulldog last night. Great stuff. Sadly my pack has dried out a little, so I rubbed it out fully, rather than my usually preferred fold and stuff. Nice and warming on my way to see Alabama 3!

    Peterson Holiday Blend 2010- WOW

    I've got the 2011 and 2012 variants (and I'll be buying some 2013 shortly) I've gone off aromatics fairly quickly, but I still love these ones. Cinammon and spices. Fruit and nuts. Smells, and tastes like christmas. The roomnote smells like someone cooked a Christmas cake after a bowlful. Bites...

    Convince Me To Buy A Falcon

    I love my Falcon. Take the bowl off, a quick wipe of the humidome, run a cleaner down the bore, stick a fresh bowl on, and you're away with the next bowl. The bowls are small (at least, the two that I have), but I can get 45 mins out of a broken flake. Personally I love the metal stem too. I...

    A Word Of Advice For Newbies

    I spent ages working on the 'pack it lighter, pack it lighter! Lighter, dammit!!' theory. It's only the last few weeks I've realised that I was packing too light. Way too light. Before I got the hang of fold-and-stuff for flakes, I used to shred them into tiny cubes, just drop them in, apply the...

    Smoke Rings

    Been trying since I picked up my pipe. But no. Can't.

    Craft Beer

    I love a decent beer. My local's just started getting some of the Stones beers in (so far just the IPA, but the landlords assured me there's a couple more interesting casks on the way), but we've got plenty of great local brewers. I've just finished a pint of the Houston Brewery (based about 10...

    New Members, Introduce Yourself!

    Just dropping in here to say 'Hi'. I've been smoking a pipe for a while, and I've been lurking around here since I started, about a year ago. I started back in December 2012 with a cheap and nasty (I'm aware these two terms are not necessarily interchangeable, but they certainly were with this...
