    New Jaguar Meerschaum For My Birthday

    Ooh nice one, lucky devil to find one so similar. Like your watch by the way, I think I have the same or similar.

    Stonehaven in the Bunker

    Poor old Hitler, he must have suffered every inconvenience imaginable inside his bunker with people making these videos!

    Straight Razors

    Buy cheap, buy twice. Which can be extended to, if you're going to pay £12+ for a pack of 4 disposable blades, then five times that number for a quality straight razor is an investment. But, otherwise... This.

    OK, now that's just going too far

    Rasselass, it's not law to not smoke on hospital, university, etc grounds, so I just ignore it. I occasionally have to visit universities and a lot of them have no smoke policies, but I just ignore it, and nobody ever says anything. We've got the first 'smoke free' village not to far away from...

    To Wives And Girlfriends

    May they never meet indeed! Unfortunately Her Britannic Majesty's Navy has deemed that particular toast to be 'inappropriate in the modern world', so I'm glad to read it here!

    What Are You Sitting On?

    Peck your odd collection of objects never fails to amaze and amuse. I'm sitting on my chair. And a bit on the dog, and of course, my sweet arse.

    On Being a ‘Gentle Man’

    Is that the kind of thing you lot think we eat and drink in pubs in the UK? :lol: Aside from that, being gentlemanly is a way of being, regardless of clothes or whatever. To me, it's about being unruffled by everything and being polite, but not soft or fawning. I wear a suit pretty much every...

    "Show me your" ASHTRAYS!

    Christ these are some mental ashtrays. I usually just use a beer can or stick tab ends or whatever in my wine bucket.

    Rope tobacco

    Ooh I love unwinding it, that's the best bit. It does make it a bit naff to smoke, but it's so satisfying. Like when you snip the end of a cigar off and rub that apart gently.

    Hemp Wicks

    A friend of mine went through a rather odd phase of insisting everything was natural, so he bought one of these from a head shop to light his spliffs with. I've used them a fair few times, they don't make any difference at all, they're a gimmick. And you need a lighter to light them anyway! :rofl:

    Patriotism: What Would We Do

    I imagine the Crimeans feel more patriotic fervor towards Russia than Ukraine. I would also not call the seperatists terrorists, nefarious or unpatriotic. They are patriotic for their own cause. If I was in an area that felt more akin to one country than it's own, and that country invaded, I...

    Some Film Recommendations

    I don't mind a bit of french films. You might have included amelie though, there's a pointless, bizarre feel good flick if ever I saw one. Personally I'm going to recommend Das Boot. Because it's brilliant, and has jurgen prochnow as the captain.

    Tolkien Fans, Enthusiasts, Geeks, and the Antithesis

    I utterly detest Tolkein's fiction, it is saccharine and evokes no sense of mystery, history or wonderment in me and is exemplary of the shallow longing for the past that was prevalent in learned/artistic circles at the time. These pipes and tobacco spawned around the books and films are also as...

    Hi, Y'all, I'm new here and to pipes but I love Nightcap.

    Nothing wrong with that. No idea why everyone recommends aromatics like lane 1Q or whatever. It's like saying to someone who's never drunk before, try this WKD, it tastes like pop. Doesnt mean it tastes good though.

    Very Expensive 1920 Dunhill Pipe on Ebay!

    Must be the most expensive thing ever sold in lancashire :rofl: Hm, maybe that joke's only funny in yorkshire...

    Shaving

    I used to use the finest English soaps and badgerwood brushes and sharp razors, but I got lazy. I use coal tar soap and a blade so blunt I've forgotten what a close shave feels like.

    Air Pocket Method

    I find this method very satisfying to pack, but rarely to smoke. Somehow there's something very cathartic in stuffing a wad of tobacco in a hole. I smoke flake quite a lot too, but I just can't fold and stuff, it just somehow doesnt work for me. I do tend to use this method after Ive rubbed it...

    Sobranie Cigarettes Anyone?

    Not worth the money. There's nothing remarkable about the black russians, or the cocktails. I smoke embassy filters usually and there's no perceptible taste. The only differences are that I can tell, is that they're superking length and are wrapped in black paper.

    To dump or not to dump...

    Yeah dump it. I'm a fiend for not bothering to cake the bottom properly. Good idea though saint, I like it.
