@Ettrick puffer I enjoyed the Luxury Navy Flake in my clay pipe. Salmon are returning to the River Don following the installation of fish passes on the weirs.

Going to get another clay pipe of baccy down my throat before supper!
I’m trying Samuel Gawith Grousemoor for the first time in a sacrificial MM Legend. The tin note reminds me of a shaving soap my grandfather used.
Late afternoon pipe of Peterson 3p's in an Upshall sandblast Dublin, and now followed by a bowl of Wilke Chocolate in a Nachwalter Wenhall smooth Dublin halfbent with twin-bore tapered stem.
Walnut Flake in a Parker bent billiard, and to drink - my own concoction of ginger cordial, liquid smoke, malt extract, hot water with a slice of lemon and cloves.
Earlier today I had a bowl of Sutliff Vanilla Custard in my MM The Shire Cobbit while working on Biology.
Right now I’m working on American Civilization and enjoying Sutliff Match Victorian that was hidden for over a year now. I’m smoking my MM Bent Legend.
Some truly beautiful pipes in this thread.

50:50 tambolaka and brown rope #4 in a KB&B
Just finished smoking Mac Baren Scottish Mixture in a straight, smooth brown 1960s Lane era Charatan Special 38 bulldog with a black vulcanite saddle stem.
Now smoking D&R Ryback in a smooth straight late 1970s Charatan Special 4148DC Reg. No. 203573 pot with a black double comfort vulcanite stem. Time for another set of walking reps.
A late last smoke of home mix in a Savinelli 642 Camouflage. Watched a film "Boss Level", and had sardines for Supper. God bless, Mes Amis.
A BACHELOR'S VIEWS.
A pipe, a book,
A cosy nook,
A fire,—at least its embers;
A dog, a glass:—
'Tis thus we pass
Such hours as one remembers.
Who'd wish to wed?
Poor Cupid's dead
These thousand years, I wager.
The modern maid
Is but a jade,
Not worth the time to cage her.
In silken gown
To "take" the town
Her first and last ambition.
What good is she
To you or me
Who have but a "position"?
So let us drink
To her,—but think
Of him who has to keep her;
And*sans*a wife
Let's spend our life
In bachelordom,—it's cheaper.

Made it through Monday work day blues! Now relaxing on the deck with some Gawith Hoggarth Dark Plug in a Missouri Meerschaum 150th anniversary “bully” cob with a custom blue lucite stem. A little bit of Coltrane on the Bluetooth speaker for accompaniment
Smoked D&R Ryback in a IMP earlier today. Now smoking Dunhill Flake in a Castello Sea Rock liverpool.
New blend for me today: Boswell’s Northwoods in my Molina churchwarden. Had my first bowl of it earlier in a Peterson System 306. Withholding judgement till I get an ounce or two in.
Started my day with a bowl of Crooner in a MM 5th Ave Legend and for the drive home a Charter Oak Connecticut Lonsdale. 
2017 Butera Latakia No. 2 in a 1964 Dunhill LB Shell. Been a few years since I’ve smoked any of this.
I opened a tin of this today. The tin note reminded me of smoky baked goods. Just a tad dry, but still had moisture and springy.
On the initial draw there is a campfire flavor that is quickly followed by the Orientals and the unmistakable Orange and Red Virginias. A subtle toast flavor follows. No doubt this a McClelland creation, and time has been kind to it…

@FurCoat I enjoyed the Kendal Cream Flake in my clay pipe; I recommend you try smoking some in yours!
Done 13000+ steps today; made an apple ? and blackberry crumble for supper - very medieval!
Making another loaf of bread ? tomorrow.
I don't live on beer ? and pipeweed

Close to finishing this bowl of year 2012 Rolando’s Own in a smooth straight early ‘60s Lane era “William Conrad” Charatan Executive Extra Large stretch apple with diagonal channel cuts on the lower right and left of the bowl along with a black vulcanite double comfort saddle stem.
WC Deluxe Crumb Cut in a GBD brandy shape.
