    Yeah a month after brexit isn't long enough to iron out all the creases. It will get better long term. This is just a bump in the road. Companies here just need to ride it out until then

    Pipe Lighter Recommendations

    I like my zippo lighter (pipe insert) however I found with my nording freehand the flame won't get into the bowl so for that pipe I use my vertigo lighter. They are awesome
