    This guy makes Lee Scratch Perry look conservative.

    Am I About to Smoke Cow Dung???

    I recently was given some MacBaren's Mixture: Scottish Blend. And I watched a video review (as I tend to do with the tobaccos I am trying out). The guy described it as smelling like cat pee. Can't say I agree or disagree. Don't know what cat pee smells like tbh. "WTF Mittens! Your piss smells...

    Fermented dark Virginias. Sounds nice. Fermentation gives us such wonders... Here's another one to be grateful for hah

    Am I About to Smoke Cow Dung???

    I get the tartiness you mention from smoking it btw... Kinda makes the taste buds tingle. Like eating some kinds of cheesecake ha ha. If that makes any sense.

    Am I About to Smoke Cow Dung???

    It's totally wet barnyard hay and dung to me ha ha. More horse than cow when I think about it. But yeah, I dried it for a good few hours, then eventually got impatient and put it on top of my laptop to help the drying along even more... Packed the pipe I had decided to dedicate to VaPers (a...

    Am I About to Smoke Cow Dung???

    Please don't take the title of this post too seriously. Although, I took a race down to my local B&M today and was determined to buy a VaPer. Top of the "to-try" list in that category for me were S&G's Cabbie's Mixture and Peterson's (formerly Dunhill) Elizabethan Mixture. Since today I also...

    Just a Couple Beginner Questions...

    As already mentioned. Meerschaum pipes are another option you can consider. I'd also like to add that you can look into metal pipes. Falcon pipes are very popular. I have two Alco pipes, Alco are a sub-brand of Falcon, and I love 'em ha ha

    How Do You Reconcile With Pipe Smoking's Health Risks?

    Tbh Like many here, I'm sure. This thread has got us sitting back in chairs thinking a bit. I got to thinking about a guy with whom I went to school, who later became quite a celebrity in Northern Ireland and also across the whole of the UK through a program drama called hollyoaks 8( anyway his...

    How Do You Reconcile With Pipe Smoking's Health Risks?

    This is what I am currently attempting... I still smoke RYO, though significantly less since I started with pipe smoking. Any tips for dropping the rollies altogether?

    How Do You Reconcile With Pipe Smoking's Health Risks?

    I think pipe smoking can reduce stress, and that's a good thing... Also it helps me smoke much less RYO cigarettes. I eventually hope to quit the RYO altogether with the help of the pipe and maybe some NRT. Also, isn't it true that most pipe tobaccos do not contain anywhere near the amount of...

    Does Nicotine Make You Sleepy?

    When I first started on the pipe, quite recently. I bought some Mac Baren HH Old Dark Fired. I only dried out one flake and then smoked it right through. Right after that I felt a complete relaxed sleepy feeling, which I was sure (still am) was down to the tobacco. Went to bed and sleep like a...

    How To Do Images In The Forum.

    Seems it does the trick... the resolution was what was holding it back... this is 740 along the long edge.

    How To Do Images In The Forum.

    I tried uploading at around 950kb, then again at around 700kb, 500kb, 350, and finally gave up after my last attempt at 327... Not sure of the resolution though, that must be what's doing it. 5520 x 4140. That must be it. I didn't consider the resolution.

    How To Do Images In The Forum.

    Ok so I had a couple of pictures I wanted to share... Took them on my phone and transferred them to the laptop. They are PNG and also quite large in storage size. 5.7MB, which I can understand is too big to post on the forum. I have compressed the pictures about 5 times and each time have tried...
