   Have any of you guys bought or looking very hard at the new Molly Malone series of Petes. I think I might pull the trigger in the next day or so.

   I want those SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO bad. Gotta wait though tools come first.

   If at first you don't succeed you are running about average.

   I see in one listing they call Molly the Dolly with the Trolly. My Cousins in Dublin call her The Tart With The Cart! LOL

   I can't decide if I want the smooth or this one set of rusticated thats not as deep. I think the stems contrast perfect though, and I typically don't care for the look of Acrylic stems.

   Now I want to buy the set! Those pipes are beautiful no matter what style you get.

   I really want the sandblasted set! The perfect contrast... Does it get better than Peterson? (Rhetorical question; it doesn't get better!)

    They're very nice, but a little outside my buying power at the moment...

    Doesn't it hurt a little Mark? I'm in the same boat.

    Yeah, maybe a little, but you get used to it.... thank God all my old pipes still smoke good. I'm hoping things will get better soon, but it's hard to see spending over $300 for a pipe when your car is falling apart and you can't afford a newer one.

    There is no way I can afford that, but I can dream. I really like the grain shown on the smooth, but then I like the grain on all of the Peterson smooths I've seen, including the ones I do own. I like the sandblast and rustic as well, as long as I'm dreaming, I'll dream I've gotten one of each set.

    That Ebony Straight is a beautiful pipe. Too bad I'm not willing to pay that much.

    Kind of a sad legend. Beautiful song when done correctly, and who other than Paddy Reilly to do it;

    Must have been one of Ronnie Drew's last appearances.

    All three of my daughters love that song. I used to sing it to them when I put them to bed as wee children.
