Hi all
Just an update on the NY pipe club meeting on last Tuesday night at Cafe Tabac in Soho.
First of all, what a great bunch of people-men and women. Each person I met was so anxious to share info and tobacco and general experiences pipe smoking-just like this forum, except one on one. I brought a new pipe smoking buddy of mine to the meeting and he immediately felt welcome and was able to gleen quite a bit of information on our wonderful hobby.
At the meeting, the president Lou Carbonne brought in some 'extra' pipes and tobaccos that needed a home. I took a simple straight polished briar-no name, no info, but a group 4 or so in size. It needs alot of cleaning, but hey, for free, who cares?
For me its a long trip down after a full day's work and the start time is early, but it doesn't matter because i left at around 10:30 and people were still there at 11:30pm!
If there are any people in the general NYC area on this forum, you should really try to come to a meeting, which is held on the second Tuesday of each month.
The web site is; NYPipeclub.com
Thanks
