Welcome! You’ll love the world of pipe smoking — especially the community. Pipe smokers, as a group, are amongst the most interesting and friendly folks I’ve run across. I suggest seeking out a local pipe club.
Cheers and welcome. I’m still trying to understand why this hobby means so much me, but like you that first smoke and a great pipe grabs some. Hold on tight my friend, it’s a wild ride.
Hi Graham. Welcome!
I'm fairly new to pipe smoking as well. I get over to London every so often. Next time I may look for a good club to enjoy a smoke...don't know if they have those anymore. Seems like so many places are tobacco free here in the US nowadays.
