    ***What Are You Smoking, February 2025?***

    ***What Are You Smoking, February 2025?***

    Nice early start today. I have just boxed up the 1120 return materials to be shipped to the accountants and discovered the whole lot weighed 7 lbs! Considering how little business we did last year I was quite amazed. Today I am smoking my favorite meerschaum 'cutty' pipe with Birmingham...

    If you are going to smoke Hogwart's ropes you need the right pipe for the job like this 1870s meerschaum 'cutty' with amber stem in a box wood carry case.

    Is that the original stem or a replacement? The sky blue lining in the case is lovely and doesn't look like it has been damaged by pipe 'juices' and general wear and tear. I believe that color is called Prussian Blue and it is arrived at by some amazing 19th century chemical process that would...
