Having a hard time today not ordering an Etudiant (and enough tobak to hit free shipping, of course).

 

[dottlejockey]

I ordered a small order from P&C, and in their lovely fashion, I received a box with half my order:
3 pouches of Five Brothers and 2 oz of 507-S for blending.
I’m hoping another pkg USPS shows on my informed delivery is the missing 6oz each of MacB VA#1 and Coniston Cut Plug.

I sure hope so! VA#1 and Coniston Cut Plug are both excellent!

Don’t you get the ones I’ve got my eye on! But you should definitely get one.

Had a package yesterday, 25g of G&H Kendal No.7 Broken Flake, 50g tin of SG Brown No.4 Roll Twist, 50g SG St James Plug and my greatest desire...

If it’s not the J11P with the nice ring blast, you’re safe

This little guy (I need a beater sitter) has been on my wishlist and I’m cart for a couple weeks.
8oz of 507-C and some more 5Bros will make this post TAD-compliant

Holy crap!!! Did you see the warning on the package?!. This needs to be properly disposed of. I'll send you the address to a guy that specializes in this type of waste disposal. I'm only doing this because I care about you.

I have this pipe and must warn you, it SUCKS to clench. Its an awesome smoker nonetheless.

I've been puzzling over that. It's listed on the site I used as Cabbies Mixture but is Cabbies Roll Cut a new and more descriptive name? I rather prefer it, tbh.

I took a flyer on 2 tins of the recent release of . It’s just OK in my own subjective estimation, so I’m glad I only got 2 tins. That unopened tin is gonna stay unopened for years, so it’ll probably be amazing when I finally get to it and then I’ll be mad I didn’t buy more.

I realize I skipped the name of the blend. It was Steamworks

Damnit….
I was worried about that.

Some OGS with age, looking forward to comparing with the stuff from just 2 yrs ago.

TADsend, a box of St James and Orlik for the cellar (never mind the crowd scene beyond).

I get pipe / tobacco acquisition disorder when I go to Buxton as Appleyard's sell clay pipes and loose Gawith Hoggarth. Re-used a few empty pipe baccy packets when I went there this week; not much single use with me!

I’ve heard good things about the monster series… I’ve never tried one for some reason though. How are they?
