PS Luxury Twist Flake in an Irish Free State (1922-1937) Peterson
Last new pipe for a while, Chacom Champs-Elysees (bent apple 871), Mac Baren Navy Flake for the inaugural smoke in this one. I've found that I'm a sucker for a contrasting bowl rim. Rather impressed with the quality of this one over the Savinelli I bought for around the same price. This is already my most favorite of my three briars and I've only been puffing on it for 10 minutes now. The stain looks much better in person than in pictures.
Uploaded a couple of videos of the Old Time Sailors at Matlock Bath Pirate Mutiny today:
Special Virginia in a clay with the Pirates; had to be careful at the pub not to blow pipe smoke in anyone's face
Received my tin of Sutliff Maple Street from @jaytex1969 today.

Going to have Savinelli 140th Anniversary (thanks @Servant King !) in a Savinelli Tre Bent Billiard 601 while I work on some magazine illustrations.

First time seeing our horse since getting back from our trip on Thursday, so I went with Mac Baren Vanilla Cream in my MM Country Gentleman. Going to be a two pipe day, for sure...this was a nice mild aro to start with. No bird report yet...too busy watching my horse ham it up in the round pen.
@TheIronMonkey Hope you enjoy it! That blend is one of my favorites. Love the Tre billiard by the way, that's got a nice glossy shine to it.
@halfdan Looks like a hell of a battle. Don't get scurvy! +1 on the Maple Street, that's a swell blend. I should be stocking up on that one, lest it get dropped suddenly like my other Sutliff favorite, French Quarter.

Now smoking the seventh 4AB of the day: Erik Stokkebye 4th Generation Evening Flake in a smooth medium bend 2021 Peterson Ebony POTY 4AB No. 422/500 military mount with a silver cap and a tapered black vulcanite AB stem. I'm thinking about what to do this evening regarding pipes and smokes.
Thanks! That's a little one that Bruce Weaver gifted me when he retired. That accent is hippo tooth and I often wonder how he worked it without it shattering.cool pipe
