Hi from London

[BasketCase]

Hi All,

Long timer lurker, first time poster

Been smoking weekly - give or take - from last March or so. The weekly time with a pipe was a real crutch this year as have been at/near unemployment on top of going through with house purchase, and some pretty significant family issues.

Earlier in the week got confirmation on a new job beginning soon and since expanded my fleet including a wonderful Charatan London Reject which I fired up this morning with some Hal O the Wynd - just brilliant with the Spring sun coming out!

Anyways, keep on doing,

Cheers!

Congratulations on your new job and brightening future, from central North Carolina, U.S. I love your city, from visits in the 80's and two thousands.

Thanks for the welcome! Glad you enjoyed London - I've not spent as much time in the US as I'd like and a road trip across the country is pretty high on my list of things to do!

Thanks again

I'll have to up my landscape game, best I can do is the bit of scrub round my allotment patch

Welcome from Missouri, USA. I've just begun restoring a Falstaff from London; my first English pipe.
