    Can Tobacco Change For The Worse?

    Doubt it was the tobacco. If it’s not a dirty pipe or smoking too fast & hot, it’s probably a ‘body chemistry’ thing. Also known as tongue gremlins.

    Hedgehog out in the day

    Beautiful little creatures. A favourite staple of badgers & Romany gypsies, apparently. The gypo’s don’t eat them during the summer though, as the meat is too runny. No such qualms from the badgers though, which, along with the outlawing of badger culls, doesn’t bode well for the poor little...

    Interesting Completed Ebay Auctions - British Pipes

    Saw that one. Almost came out of retirement to get it but resisted the urge. Hopefully it went to a deserving englishman and not one of these foreign johnnies.🧐

    Medical Doctors who Smoke a Pipe?

    Bill Clinton in particular, no? If I was married to Hillary, I'd be inhaling everything I could get my hands on! Lol

    My First Pipe Dream

    Even in a comotose state with my noggin done in, couldn't imagine cobs making an appearance. The only dream I remember with a pipe was the one with Sophia Loren on the end of it. Comoy I think it was, absolute beauty! 👍

    Chewable Plugs?

    I've met several..... They're not all that tbh. English ones that swallow are much more endearing.

    Chewable Plugs?

    Fribourg and Treyer are also a definite 'must sniff' if you're partial to a snuff.

    Briar Pipes - Ireland - Late 1860s

    Of interest or maybe of no interest at all to today's ladies, but up until the first World war, pipes & specifically clay pipes were quite the norm among the women folk. Ladies seen smoking cigarettes were regarded as 'a bit racy' or 'sluttish'. That all changed with the huge growth & expansion...

    Chewable Plugs?

    For some reason, conversations/threads regarding snuff on this forum never seemed to have gained much interest. Dip yes, snuff no. I confess to never have chewed tobacco in my life! Like most English gentlemen I suppose, we’re just too ‘dapper for the dip’. I mean, can you imagine walking down...

    Some Folk Really Shouldn’t be Allowed to Write Product Reviews.

    Even more worrying is the people they're voting for & why. Bullshit baffles brains is the old saying. I don't think we've had a generation like this one before. Corrupt and indecent media, more Bullshit than you can shake a stick at & the masses are following it like lambs to the slaughter...

    Fury vs Usyk 🥊

    I think they’ve already agreed to a rematch so like werewolf says, a draw could be on the cards. Who knows, like you I’m just hoping for an entertaining bout.
