    Thanks jimbo44 that was a great link! Very interesting, I hadn't heard about those sleeves that go on the stem...will have to look more into that. @crashthegrey I bet you are right...my friend's mom has insisted she smokes at least one bowlful before it goes on display!

    Calling All Brits (Tea Time)

    I love: Yorkshire tea, Tetleys and I am a big fan of the teas (and coffees) from Whittards, not sure if they ship to the States...they shipped to me here in Romania when I was missing some English treats...not sure a Brit should say this but I'm more and more about the coffee...
