    WWII Vets What A Generation

    I have sent an apology – with a more divulged paragraph on what I meant to Peter via PM. I shall keep off this thread now, to avoid further incident. American Veterans are awesome, and I’m happy that they are respected and loved by their country in the manner that they should be. In my...

    WWII Vets What A Generation

    PiperUK, There are differences between soldiers of the Wehrmacht and political assignation and Death squads within the Schutzstaffel. Sean, Yes I have read stories of German Veterans being well treated among American veterans in the States. My point was mainly about domestic Germany. I'll...

    Some Pipers Need to be Thicker Skinned

    @chris I’m afraid to say the problem isn’t to do with selfishness but to do with compassion. If someone is going to be offended because someone is caring enough to give them an honest opinion (which is a lot better than lying to save emotional discomfort), providing that they seek this honest...

    WWII Vets What A Generation

    I’m afraid to say that most of my family of that generation were on the other side. Though saying that, they still are rather awesome crowd with great stories of Comradeship. They served in Africa, Asia and Eastern Europe. They hold a stigma of Fascism attributed to them. Which I personally feel...

    Some Pipers Need to be Thicker Skinned

    Could have been worse, he could have said “I’m offended at that”. The comment “I’m offended at that” is truly irritating. The so called people who uses that moronic statement seems to expect that, because they are offended at your comment they therefore expects you to change your comment or to...

    You can polish a turd, but it will still remain a turd?

    Pursuit of History Assignment – Bring in Something Historical

    Greetings all, I have an assignment for my University seminar to bring in something historical to talk about. I was thinking considering I haven’t really taken much from home to instead bring in my sandblasted Berlin Design Gotha 57 Silver spigot. I don’t think the pipe itself is practically...

    Hot Tea & A Pipe. A Good Match?

    I like to drink Darjeeling with my a pipe. I have noticed the dryness from Earl Grey and First Assam.etc. but Darjeeling I find more refreashing.

    How Often You Replace Your Filters?

    Greetings Rubin, I myself am new to the community though I consider myself relatively adapt at the hobby at this current stage. The subject of whether or not use the pipe filter is an “each to his own” topic. Smoking a pipe with a filter is very popular in Germany and Austria, countries which...

    Squadron Leader vs Early Morning Pipe

    I smoked a 50g tin of Squadron Leader in less then a week, which is quite a feat for me. I was very disapointed when I smoked the last bits of ribbon last night. So it could be said that I'm a supporter of the Samuel Gawith's Squadron Leader. I have never smoked Early morning, though I always...

    Bulldog Charisma

    Only have one bulldog in my modest collection - Parker Jockey 73, not an expensive pipe but certainly a great little smoker. Its the pipe I take to the pub. I can say since smoking a bulldog that my tastes on shapes have changed. I used to love the traditional bent billiard in line to something...

    Take This Test

    39 Somewhat accurate to an extent. Though I have never found it hard to make friends, only found it hard to make good friends. Which is mainly due to the extent that I notice more flaws then attributes. Though it is true the friends in which I consider to be good, I have a strong loyalty...

    I wish you luck on this project. At times it may be a challenge, I think this one may be one hell of a challenge. When its restored you will know that all the moments of near mental breakdown were not in vain. :puffy:

    Another Falcon pic (man I luv this pipe!)

    I have always had a thing against Falcons, something to do with the metal stem. Saying this I have never heard of, or spoken to anyone who has owned a Falcon say anything bad against them. That and it's feat of being one of the most sold pipes ever. :puffy:
