New Pipe and Goodies to start over.

[seadogontheland]

Well after my COPD misdiagnosis and subsequent sale of pipes, tobacco and all the goodies I decided today would be a good day to start over.
So first there was this Stanwell: Its the #84.

Then had to get some baccy, so my favorite: 5 tins of the Private Stock.

Add to this 100 pipe cleaners, 2 aluminum nails and 1 multi tool.
I have my Black Bic Lighters ready and with free shipping it seemed like the perfect time to start out right.
I have found the Stanwells are exceptional smokers, so I feel in good hands.

You bought out their entire supply of the "Private Stock"? This is your favorite? I don't see any reviews of this stuff anywhere. It is good?

Damn...I didn't know those were the last tins...I hope they had all 5 to send. Yes!! This is a phenomenal blend...I put up a review a couple months ago, if you care to look. The most balanced English/Balkan I have ever enjoyed!
There are also reviews at TR.com. Its a true sleeper...shhh..don't tell anyone its so good!

Dam you seadog, you are giving out the secret! LOL Pretty soon this stuff is going to be as hard to get as Stonehaven.

Bummer you have to start over but good to hear that you are still able to enjoy the pipe.

I suppose other than the financial outlay starting over and re-gathering will be somewhat fun. Enjoy. :D
