I am going to explain my little joke regarding football. I never should have attempted it on the web as you "have to be there" for it to come across correctly. This is one time when face to face is the only way go.
The football I'm referring to is American football and the games are played on Sunday mostly. I figured since you get Sunday before I do, you would have access to the scores hours before I would. It's a time and space thing I believe. In theory, Australia should see the games before America . . . Ahhhh, it was a poor attempt at a little humor. My abject apologies for wasting everyone's time.
Enjoy the new furnace. Your girl has great taste in pipes!
Crocs! Gators! Is there anything in Australia that crawls, walks or flies that can't kill you?

I'll be the dissenter. I like the one on the left, the non-alligator version, both for the Cumberland-colored stem and

for the more subdued finish. The alligator finish is definitely more dramatic, but personally, I'd reach for the

other pipe for that reason, a little more comfortable and low-key, a little more traditional and refined, if you like

that sort of thing. But if you like to exude a bit of drama when you smoke, the alligator may be your pipe. Oops, I

see I'm too late. They're both beautiful pipes ... happy smoking. With drama!

I was about to say that the alligator one is already sold, but I see the OP bought it. Good choice. I like it better than the other one, anyway.

Good to see some fellow Aussies on here (although I am now in Canada where the tobacco prices are quickly catching those in Australia!)
Similar to football scores I always like the see what next year is like when I check in with my family every Dec 31st.
