    Zippo Inserts???

    No better lighter for outdoor use than the Zippo with the pipe insert. If the fuel that comes in the black colored can is used there will be no lighter fluid taste. For indoor use I have a silver Dunhill Unique, which is quite excellent to use indoors.

    Where Are The Squadron Leader Tins? ?

    It's a great tobacco. A few years back it was hard to get, so when I saw more I bought all the store had. Still have most of it. I have a 4 drawer filing cabinet mostly filled with tobaccos I've bought over the years, so if the tobacco apocalypse happens tomorrow, I'm set for years.
