Bad News From The UK!
In the states? Undoubtedly. Milli Vanillli, Charles & Eddie, Hall & Oats are all pretty naff. None of those are as annoying as Oasis though. A thorn in my side since the 90’s & I’m sure the root cause of my tinnitus. My poor ears inadvertently affected whilst visiting the pubs & clubs of...- simong

Opening A Tin? Show Us!
You might be right, although I haven’t bought any rum flake in recent years. I remember it being more Virginia & rum than The Hyde Park, which is more burley & maple.- simong

Opening A Tin? Show Us!
Peterson’s Hyde Park from 2012. This used to be blended by Gawith’s. Sobering to think the last time I bought a tin of this was 12 years ago. Time marches on!- simong

Need Help Dating Charatan Pipe.
Modern production. I’ll guess yours is from the 90’s-00’s. The finish on your pipe is identical to a BC I used to have. Current Trafalgar pipes retail around the £70-£80 mark. -
Woke Boxing
At the age of 52 I now realise that life is less stressful if you accept the things you cannot change. I’ve therefore decided to embrace the Woke mentality. If organisations such as the BBC & the IOC say something is fair & just, then so be it. Woke boxing………..I think it’s great.- simong

St. Bruno No More At Sainsburys?
No, Brexit hasn't affected the importation of St. Bruno & other otc's. It's still widely available at a number of shops and online of course. Sainsbury is like your Wallmart or 7-11 I imagine, one in every town and handy when you're out of baccy (or it was). Like Bob and smudger have said...- simong

No Bruno!! According to the lady behind the...- simong

Story Behind the Names of Pipe Shapes?
No, you've got that wrong mush. Surprising, as you're from South London. Lovat is pronounced Love It! Innit though. Here in the shire of course, the correct pronunciation is 'Colonel Fraser'. What's in a name? Forever changing with the times and pipe makers themselves. FWIW Zulu - oval...- simong
