    I Am a YouTube Pipe Presenter

    metalheadycigarguy That's exactly what the people you're complaining about are doing. yaddy306 Yes, this seems to be a misrepresentation. Hopefully I'm not an "old geezer" at 34.

    My First Wayne Teipen Pipe

    Really nice pipe, I love the contouring around the bottom of the bowl. Would it be possible to 'smoke out' the lakeland scent in time or is calling in the Ghostbusters the only option?

    All tobacco taste the same?

    I think some people expect different tobacco types to be like different drinks, with clearly distinct flavours. If they don't like coffee, they still expect that they might like tea or beer. To me, all tobacco is coffee, and if you don't like the base flavour of coffee to begin with then trying...

    Sergeant Matron from Scotland on Radio Show of March 22, 2013

    I'll definitely check this out, I've only really heard about the club through the tobacco they had made.

    Iwanries Has Penzance Tins!

    The only option I got was $52, that's to the UK I should have said. It's still a lot more than SmokingPipes or 4Noggins.

    Do You Consider Yourself a Smoker?

    Thanks Warren, I certainly see where you're coming from. I suppose I'd give a different answer to the police, who are looking at hard facts, than a new acquaintance who would be making a more abstract judgement on my character and life. Maybe I do care a little too much about what other think of me!

    Iwanries Has Penzance Tins!

    $14 for the tobacco, $52 for the shipping. No thanks. I could buy a lot of Gaslight for that. For those that get a tin, I hope it at least partly lives up to expectation.

    Do You Consider Yourself a Smoker?

    Let's take someone who only smoked a pack of cigarettes a year, identified as a non-smoker internally and explicitly told you that they were a non-smoker. Would you judge them because your definition of smoker was different to theirs or would you judge them as a liar? Surely it's not lying if...

    The Turn Signal Lament

    I don't think things are as bad in the UK generally, but people not signaling when coming off a roundabout is my major source of rage on the road. When you're on the roundabout, signaling doesn't really affect how people treat you but letting the next lane know that you're exiting can make the...

    Do You Consider Yourself a Smoker?

    While the public aren't discerning with regards to tobacco type/form, telling someone that you are a smoker immediately conjures the image of a daily cigarette smoker (it does here, anyway). In the same way, there's a big difference between someone being a reader and someone knowing how to read...

    [Question] Ellen Page pipe in the movie 'Juno'

    It looks a lot like a Stanwell Freehand 183 but with a different stem.

    What Type of Activity is Pipe Smoking?

    It's an occasional pleasure for me. Most of my time is taken up with work and family so chances to just sit and relax for an hour can be few and far between. My ability to smoke is also very weather dependant, which doesn't help. This means that, while there are some days where I manage to...

    As Long As I Have My Pipe

    Ah, you lucky people who get to smoke inside. I doubt my wife would fancy a film night in the middle of our garden :)

    Favorite Tunes While Smoking?

    I listen to a lot of fairly heavy guitar music and 'dirty' electronica but for relaxing with a pipe I need something more atmospheric. It's usually either Ludovico Einaudi or Tangerine Dream depending on mood and weather.

    My Reef Aquarium, Baby Clowfish Coming

    That's really cool, looking forward to future updates. I'd love to keep fish but I just don't have enough free time for the maintenance.

    Peterson's Sherlock Holmes

    You are living the dream my friend! Japan has always been my dream holiday destination but I've never made it there and my wife practically demands that I have a shower after every bowl as she hates the smell so much. Glad you've enjoyed that blend, I've heard a lot of mixed reviews on it. One...

    P&C Has Some of The 'Lesser' Esoterica Blends In Stock

    4Noggins seems to have hags of Pembroke if anyone is looking for international postage. I don't think I'd want to order that much without trying it first though.

    Dr. Grabow or Parker

    I have a really nice black, rusticated bulldog Parker. It's maybe my most smoked pipe. I'd certainly recommend them.

    Nicotine Poisoning?

    Yeah, I can also vouch for the coke method. I never normally drink the stuff but I always keep a can in the fridge just in case a cigar or pipe knocks me sideways.

    My First Barling Pipe, Pre Transition

    Many thanks for the tips. I fully expect to end up with a couple of duds but hopefully they will be the minority!
