What Tobacco to Try Next?
I hope I'm not speaking out of turn as I am only a few months into pipesmoking myself. But I would recommend trying SG Full Virgina Flake, to me it has a distinct natural sweetness that's different from the sticky sweet of aros and it also has a ton of rich flavour if smoked slowly. Best of...- Gecko

Anyone Giving Up The Juice During Lock Down?
Not changing my alcohol consumption as I only drink very seldom (weddings, anniversaries etc) and no more than a glass of wine or two. For anyone wanting to cut back I can totally recommend the book 'This Naked Mind' by Annie Grace. It gives you a new perspective on alcohol. And for anyone...- Gecko

Hello from Alaska
Welcome from Sweden! Pipe smoking can be tricky at first but don't stress and you'll soon get the hang of it. You just need to sacrifice about 40 bowls to the pipe gods first before becoming proficient ? And as alaskanpiper said if you have any questions or come across any stumbling blocks...- Gecko

Those are some gorgeous pipes! Are they all bored for filter or are some of them filter-less? -
Looking for a Clencher
My Peterson 317 is great for long time hands free clenching. Very light weight. Perhaps a bit small bowl, but I can get up to an hour from it with tightly packed flake. Great for lunting or when you are walking the dog. Well under a hundred USD from several British retailers... -

What are You Reading Now?
Sounds interesting, Thanks for sharing! I Just added 'Among Friends - Kim Philby and the Great Betrayal' by the same author to my digital bookshelf. Just going to finish 'Napoleon' by J. Christopher Herold first. It might be considered cheating doing audio books, but I get a few hours drive...- Gecko

New Rossi 8614 and Some Tower Bridge
Thank you! I had to look up what a yacht / yachtman pipe is, very cool looking shape, is now on the PAD list :) May I ask what name/number your Rossi yacht is? -
New Rossi 8614 and Some Tower Bridge
Recently orderd a Rossi 8614 and was asked to show it when it arravies. The 8614 is a filter less full bent "Oom Paul" the look complements me as I can sometimes be a cardigan wearing old fart. It has a dark brown almost black rusticated finnish. It's a budget pipe but as far as I can tell... -
