A few weeks back, someone had suggested on another thread that Ian Walker of Northern Briars was going to stop making pipes, which sent me into panic mode, because I just love his work. So, I asked Skip at The Briary if he had heard this, because he carries his pipes and seems to know a lot about Mr. Walker. Yesterday, I was in The Briary when Skip reminded me that I had asked about Mr. Walker, and he said that Ian had contacted him and was slowing down pipe production temporarily because of some health issues with his wife. But, that Ian expects to be releasing more pipes very soon for the Christmas season, and will step back up production as soon as his personal life allows.
This came as a relief because I just love his work and at the price point, you just cannot beat it.
Anyways, I just thought that I would pass it on, for those who appreciate the Northern Briars pipes.
Anyways, I am sending prayers and good thoughts out to Ian Walker and his family.
