    Inhalation

    I wouldn’t say it’s limited to fag smokers, no. My old man only ever smoked a pipe & he used to deliberately inhale, quite regularly as I remember. I don’t intentionally take it back to the lungs, but inevitably it happens as I clench most of the time. Taste wise, you’re better off not inhaling...

    Rustica Characteristics

    Rustica just tastes ‘dirty’ to me. Like the Elizabethans who discarded it in favour of other leaf centuries ago, I too, discarded my only tin. As others have said though, it would be interesting to see what C&D could do with it. If nothing else, I’m sure they could come up with some spectacular...

    Adverse Reactions to Toothpaste?

    Half asleep one morning I mistook a tube of ‘deep heat’ for my tube of toothpaste. That certainly caused a reaction.

    ***What Are You Smoking, August 2024?***

    Thanks! Yes, it’s an unusual shape. Quirky, in a 1920’s sort of fashion. Fun pipe to hold & smoke.

    Can't Have Too Many Brits! Hello from Merrie Olde England...

    Despite the white shirt, spurs fans are labelled by many more ‘colourful’ words but you’re correct, in the UK ‘supporter’ is the most traditional. Welcome from Hereford! Last time I was in Oldham, i visited a good little tobacconist. Somewhere by the market if it’s still there.

    UK: Labour Smoking Ban

    Unsurprising but nonetheless devastating new law. Two tier Keir & his stasi party have far worse things planned, I’m sure. At times like these I’m reminded of the late ‘Uncle Monty’. ’My dear boys, we’re at the end of an age. We live in a country surrounded by weather forecasts & breakfasts...
