    Proposed UK tobacco ban

    I am happy my kids won't smoke as cigarettes have been an addiction for me which thankfully I have kicked and even though I agree with in theory with the 'personal choice' argument I feel that my generation and those older than me were 'persuaded' to smoke due to peer pressure, advertising...

    Dad Died Last Weekend And I Inherited His Pipes etc.

    Thank you all for so many kind words. In a way it has heightened the importance of passing on such a personal and tangible piece of his life. He had a good and fulfilling life, so there is much to celebrate but i will miss him very much. I have spent the last two evenings cleaning, restoring...

    Dad Died Last Weekend And I Inherited His Pipes etc.

    Thanks, you're right he was in his 80s and had a good life. He never had too much tobacco at one time (unlike me). Recently as i got into the hobby he tried all sorts of tobacco having been quite conservative for many years. Some he loved and some not so much! I'm not sure he ever tried the O...

    Dad Died Last Weekend And I Inherited His Pipes etc.

    My Dad smoked a pipe to relax since i can remember, mainly at weekends in the garden and in the pub beer garden. He had a lot more pipes, but these were some of his favourites. I may go through his collection at a later date but wanted to grab these and any unopened/jarred tobacco before my mum...

    MacBaren Brands Already Being Delisted?

    Yup, thanks! am ordering there as we speak. 👍🏼Sadly they ran out of the gold version which is a favourite of mine. (Regular is "original" - my bad!)

    MacBaren Brands Already Being Delisted?

    To all markets? I know the route to market in the US is different but it seems they are stopping European distribution as well...

    MacBaren Brands Already Being Delisted?

    I'm just catching up with the STG saga... I smoke the 7 seas blends (Gold and original) as well as Cellini. These were already not selling in the UK since Brexit changed import rules so get them from an EU supplier. I've just logged on for a purchase and they are discounted and fast going out...

    Savinelli: No Filter?

    I've used Dr. Plumbs 6 mm filters and they restrict the draw too much IMO. I use the balsa in 6mm Savs and like them just fine. Horses for courses I guess
