Perhaps we are blaming the wrong people
Broken pelvis, internal bleeding? Violent gas attack, more likely. But blame the wildlife. The bogus health warnings we get on every tobacco product are the result of some pretty bent, C-19 standard "science". Where did all the fallout go from atmospheric nuke tests? All the lead from 60 years...- BingBong

BG (Delacour) Swan Neck Restoration
I remember @georged wrote quite a bit about "drifted" shanks, but this one seems quite extreme! Looks absolutely lovely, not so sure it would be easy to maintain in practice.- BingBong

Anyone Tried Smoke-King UK?
I said GC when I meant GQ - yes, they're also on the ball. But Smoke-King wooed me this morning, Germain's RDF....- BingBong

TAD Acquisitions 2025
Having spent the last 8 weeks in hospital and now awaiting major surgery, it was a pleasure to receive an email telling me that 100g of Germain's Rich Dark Flake was available to me - I pounced immediately from my hospital bed and look forward to enjoying that when I get home. TAD on drugs...- BingBong

Updating the History of Sasieni Pipes and Their Subsidiary Brands
Vogue, 1922 - "Or, if one is a woman - and so many people are -..." that got me! What a stupendous piece of puzzle solving, excellent thank you. Fascinating, even though I don't own a Saseini. Both Windus Road and Ellingfort Road are still extant, but one would be very hard pressed to identify...- BingBong

What Were Your Go-To Tobacco’s in 2025?
The constant was Cabbie's Roll Cut Mixture. Many other blends in supporting roles, with Hal O The Wynd becoming the main reserve. One that knocked my socks off, Germain's Rich Dark Flake. Scarcity limited my consumption, else it would have been a regular.- BingBong

Anyone Tried Smoke-King UK?
Yes, I'm a regular online customer. They're lovely people, stars of Otley. Occasionally, if they're out of a desirable, I point my browser at My Smoking Shop who are in Preston - they also carry a very broad selection, if one hasn't got it, the other does kind of thing. Less frequently, GC get...- BingBong

Crazy Looking Lorenzo T.V. Pipe
I was trying to find this, it was last couple of years, but the title must have been along the lines of "what the hell...." - there was Shock and Awe going on.- BingBong

Understanding Moisture
A public poll in the UK a couple of years ago revealed that the word which makes the majority of people uncomfortable is "moist". I used to talk dirty to a woman and after a while I'd say "are you.... moist?". And she would say "You. Are. Dis. Gusting!!", so there might be some truth to it...- BingBong

Black Friday Shopping
Couldn't get a stroke of work out of the nurse yesterday, too busy on the Apple store looking for deals on charging cables. There were no deals on chargers or cables, they're not stupid.- BingBong

So... What OTHER Hobbies Occupy Your Time?
"Hunter Awtrey how did he fall" and "What Happened to Max Loughan" are fascinating me for the last 5 minutes. Are they both AI hallucinations? There are articles that don't use their names but use the quoted text in full as their names. The rabbit hole hits a dead end really fast, in both cases...- BingBong
