    Howdy from Edinburgh

    A hearty welcome to you! I used to live in Newington, Edinburgh, and Auld Reekie is my favourite city in the world. I hope the Pipe Shop of Leith is still ticking along in these hard times for brick & mortar tobacconists.

    Pipe Shop Reccomendations in Glasgow, Edinburgh and London.

    Pipe Shop of Leith was great last time I visited two years ago. I hope the tram construction on Leithwalk is finally done. Last visit, the owners son said their clientele was shifting more towards vaping and while I hope that hasn't affected their pipe stock, they seem to have much less...

    Hi from Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

    Kincardine O'Neil, between Banchory and Aboyne. We'd come into town most weekends for Marks & Spencer, Union Square, and frequent fish and chips at the Ashvale! What part of the city is home for you? And P.S., Tennessee is beautiful, green hills and lots of waterways.
