Great Photos Thread
Here’s the companion photo to the leopard; its lunch. These two of the impala herd were taken with the same Minolta XG-M SLR camera the previous year (2001) in Kruger Park, South Africa, somewhere along the Gomodwane Road between Crocodile Bridge and Lower Sabie. This image here in the post is...- JoburgB2

Hi from Liverpool
You got that right, the “Lisbon Lions”. Not before my time, but before I was aware. My father-in-law spoke about them frequently. 1966-67 Glasgow Celtic, one of only two clubs to have won the trophy (the European Cup) with a team composed entirely of players from the club's home country; all of...- JoburgB2

"Blind Buying" 16oz of GL Pease - Help me Pick which Blends!
Bullet08, I also like Cairo. Love it. To me it seems dry and citrusy. The Virginia and Oriental ribbons give an unmistakable intoxicating aroma not unlike a fresh packet of 20 cigarettes with the iconic illustration of the camel on the front. Not in a bad way, but in a good way. It’s very...- JoburgB2

Opening A Tin? Show Us!
Ack! Shame. It goes that way often enough. Sometimes, Person A, like Pipestud, loves a blend, like, Royal Yacht! While Person B, say Eulenburg, writes that it tastes like gangrenous horsemeat. Anyway, hope your Stockton is a consolation. Cheers!- JoburgB2

Thank you jpmcwjr, it’s a long story (as all mine are), so thanks for the indulgence to post it. I had the Minolta XG-M SLR camera about a year; it passed to me when my father died the year before. I was hopeless with it. I struggled to take a decent photo with it. Leopards are elusive, mostly...- JoburgB2

It was Fujicolor, but nothing on the negative cut about the speed. The camera was my late father’s Minolta XG-M SLR, circa 1981-82. Photo was snapped in 2002.- JoburgB2

That is mine by the way. I know the camera but I am digging out the negative to comment on the film. Back in a few minutes.- JoburgB2

One Tobacco to Rule Them All...
If this is a post about a pipe tobacco blend named Cointreau, then that sounds interesting and appealing. If this is a post about marinating strawberries in Cointreau, that sounds equally delicious. If this is a post about Frog Morton, although my experience was limited to the one that included...- JoburgB2

New Guy in Nebraska
Welcome Joe, from Scotland. You don’t mess around and you are off to a good beginning with your choice of pipe! Whether your interest waxes and wanes over the coming years, this is an enjoyable pastime. You can plow through to excess or put it aside for weeks, months, or even years, and return...- JoburgB2
