Heya 
.
I'm Phil
from Devon UK.
I smoked pipes, roll ups and cigars until I hit 30.
I traded those hobbies in for PC gaming, Espresso pulling, Warhammer and whiskey.
I'm now 42
...
I haven't smoked in 12 years, but decided last Friday after stumbling across a man on YouTube who was smoking a pipe and reading some Tolkien. That I missed the odd casual pipe, I'll have the odd cigar maybe 3 a year but piping, for want of a better word is definitely a unique thing.
So here I come. Back into obsession, emptier bank accounts, tongue bite and a beautiful smelling Study.
I sold off most of my pipes and Zippos in 2012 including my UK commissioned extended black Bing with 925 silver (wish I could remember who made it for me).
I am now down to 2 MM corn pipes and my Savanelli Tortuga and a Danish Polo.
But I did keep all my tobacco. It wasn't cellered to make money. I just couldn't part with them knowing they may improve with age.
Anyways, thank you for reading. Hopefully we'll all become great pals.
