    S. Gawith Squadron Leader

    After work yesterday I relaxed with a bowl of Squadron Leader in my new Peterson Mark Twain. This was my first bowl of SL and I really enjoyed it. Mild taste, no bite, burned well - only three re-lites - (I was smoking out doors with a very mild breeze) - I really like it. Hard to rate a room...

    My Stanwell

    No, I do not have the before shots, unfortunately. My problem is that I am anxious to get going on the restoration and then think of photographing it too late. Maybe next time. . .

    My Stanwell

    This is the Stanwell De Luxe I recently restored. It is one of my favourites. Beautiful to look at and smokes well to boot! What more could one ask for?

    New Pipe

    I just purchased a new pipe yesterday. It is the Peterson Mark Twain special edition with the bent stem. I have been on the lookout for something resembling a Sherlock Holmes style but not necessarily a calabash. I am looking forward to using it this weekend. I have an unopened tin of Samuel...

    Breaking in a new pipe

    I am new to pipe smoking and my first bowls have been smoked from two very lovely and completely restored estate pipes. However, I recently purchased two new pipes as well - a Butz-Choquin Churchwarden and a Brigham Voyageur. How did you break in your latest new pipe? What was your process?

    Where do you smoke?

    So far I have been invited to a friend's house where we smoke in front of the fireplace and drink our tea. As for my own house I think I will be using the garage during the winter and back yard rest of the year. I am new to this. My wife is very understanding but there are limits. . .
