Days off are priceless. Every other week, I work a string of 12 hour shifts. I don’t smoke or consume ethanol product while on work rotation. Then, on the alternating week, I enjoy my time off, and anything goes (though due to a noticeable ramping up of consumption during the early months of the current pandemic, alcohol’s off the menu for a while ... oops!).

To prepare for the latter, I’m drying out a starter portion of the “everyday smoke,” a 60/40 mix of Peter Stokkebye Amsterdam 83/PS Turkish 84, from a huge covered mixing bowl of this Formula that’s been “overhydrated” with distilled water for the melding of flavors and has been sitting in this state for months. A stable of Stanwell 86s will likely serve as the devices of delivery ...

Though my choices are always subject to change, I’ve pulled out a few jars From “the cabinet” of blends I know I’m going to dip into over the next several days.

I thought I’d start with something simple, though. This Missouri Meerschaum Rob Roy Legend (purchased at a local Admiral Tobacco on a whim shortly after moving out of Chicago just over three years ago) was loaded with Sweet Cask from Hearth and Home’s Midtown Series last night for some slow sipping with multiple cups of black Starbuck’s House Blend, even as I type out this excessive post.

Enjoyed a tasty lunch, did another set of walks, and am close to finishing this bowl of D&R Three Sails in a smooth straight late 1970s Charatan Special 4148DC Reg. No. 203573 pot with a black double comfort vulcanite stem.

 

[The Clay King]

Nothing now until I get my new pipes as I've broken my clay (the stem was clogged beyond attempting to clean) and need to get another one!

Now smoking Watch City Ernie-ental Prototype in a full bend black pebble finish 2001 Rinaldo Lithos YY8 Titania Silver Line egg with a black acrylic tapered stem.

Dan. Just a suggestion but I think you issue is at the bottom of the bowl. Try having a root around with a paper clip or something!

Busy day doing not much. Relaxing with some SWR Aromatic.

Just about to fill up a bowl of Brown Twist in this fun 4' 'cutty' pipe with silver band work done by Mr. Walker of Northern Briars and genuine amber mouthpiece.

Will know for next time, I couldn't get a pipe cleaner through due to the pipe being blocked and I accidentally broke the stem while attempting to clean it!
So I'm currently pipe-less:-(

With a little luck the Royal Mail will pull their thumb out and solve that issue for you tomorrow!
