"I do! He lives in your neck of the woods, if I'm not mistaken."
Indeed he does, about 25 miles away at a rough guess. He once kindly invited me over for a smoke and a natter, alas I had to decline due to infirmity on my part but the offer was there and I appreciate that.
I'd love to have seen his converted piggery (shown on his website) and his machinery and to have chatted to and enjoyed a bowl with a 'proper' pipemaker.
Regards,
Jay.
