Smoking king a cob full of Two Timer, drinking a Pepsi on a hot, but dry, day along the Gulf Coast,grass cut, ready for a short nap?
Now smoking year 2016 D&R Three Sails in an undated straight brush etched black Molina apple with a nickel band and a black tapered vulcanite stem. Time to do a set of walking reps.
Happy B-Day, Lotuseater! Started with C&D Bayou Morning in a Savinelli Giubileo d'Oro 824 smooth Billiard with flattened shank and stem. Didimauw, boring? Hardly. I noticed that nice stem on your benched cob back there and, as for tobacco, I'm joining you as I write with a bowl of Carter Hall. I'm proud to be part of holding up the "boring end" of the forum with you.
Loaded up the yard cobs with WCC Fat Bastard. Time to mow the lawn before tomorrow's rain.
Happy Birthday brother
2012 John Aylesbury Luxury Flake in a Jack Howell Paneled Billiard.
I usually wait till Fall before I crack open a LHs tin or jar, but it’s been a weird mix of hot and cold here this summer. So….

A third of the way through this bowl of dark air cured burley in an undated (1970s?) unbranded straight paneled sandblasted Tanshell Dunhill second with a black vulcanite saddle stem. Ice water and bergs is my drink Watching Mad Dog Russo.
Happy birthday, @LotusEater !
Happy birthday, @LotusEater !
Smoking some wonderful, old, leathery Samuel Gawith FVF in an ugly, old McCraine panel billiard.
Now smoking C&D Golden Days of Yore 2020 in a medium bend smooth paneled 2017 Celebi Turkish Meerschaum with a gold and black swirl acrylic tapered stem.
My work week is completed. Bring on the weekend!
I’m having Wilke Lizzie Blood Red Virginia in a MM spool and drinking ice water.
Happy Birthday, @LotusEater!
@didimauw When I bought my first clay pipe I thought there were only Condor, Mellow Virginia, St. Bruno and Clan...
I've tried all 4 of these in my clay pipes; St. Bruno is my favourite but I like Condor and Special Virginia as well.
Found a working lighter and a nearly full packet of Sterling Blue cigarettes while out today.
Finished my packet of Condor Ready Rubbed in my clay pipes after a delicious and relaxing 47 minute smoulder in the churchyard; it might have been a few minutes either way due to the time difference in Old Brampton as the church clock has 63 minutes in an hour...

Erinmore in an old Peter Stokkebye pipe. 
@timt I've smoked a few packets of St Bruno Ready Rubbed in my clay pipes; not buying any more St Bruno Flake due to its excess plastic packaging as the flakes are packed in a sealed plastic tray that isn't recyclable:-(
I think flake tobacco should be sold in tins like the Gawith flakes.
I spotted a vintage St Bruno Flake tin at a flea market recently; Progress - I don't think so:-(
My dad used to smoke RYO cigarettes before I was born and still uses some old tobacco tins for storing bits and pieces.
When I was at school we all had them for our wax
ons.Dad says when I went to see the Sealed Knot at Bolsover Castle, reusing the empty packet for my loose Gawith Hoggarth pipe baccy didn't offset the emissions from burning the tobacco in my clay pipe
@smokeymo I bought a packet of Erinmore Mixture to smoke in my clay pipes; only ever had it once and didn't know it was still made until I asked at Morrisons which pipe tobacco they stocked.
It was a pleasant enough smoke in the clay but I prefer the loose Gawith Hoggarth pipe baccy due to my plastic waste reduction strategies!
The amount of plastic waste I've saved would make anyone proud - and offset all that pipe smoke!
Player's No Name in a No Name Cutty (or a footed billiard for the purists). Don't know wether I'm coming or going on the tobacco front. Got some tobacco in a trade, bought some new blends & bought some old. Then today I recieved samples of these new plugs from Cascadia, courtesy of @greeneyes. He also included a very generous sample of this No Name! I don't know how old it is but it's in excellent shape. Plenty of depth & a delightfully fragrant taste about it. A smoke to remember & savour. Thankyou so much! ?
