    3 days no ciggies....

    Okay, so I just returned home from the tobacco shop with 25g of their own brand called Turkish Ribbon and a 'cob. Smoking a pipe full right now and so far it's a nice cool smoke with no tongue bite to speak of and a bit of a spicy flavour. So far so good. The 'cob is a Missouri Meerschaum. On...
