Ennerdale Flake in a vintage Pollock clay yesterday. Went to Cromford Mill again & wore the redcoat uniform. My clay holds about 3g of baccy as got 3 1/2 bowls out of 10g of Ennerdale. Got a customs letter for GBP28.25 for the tin of Musketeer...
Fed the ferals and stayed out there to make sure the possum didn't come back to eat their food. Lost work time, but they are worth it. I'm a third of the way through this bowl of year 2016 Sutliff Revelation Match in a straight smooth brown pre-WWII Kingsway (Comoy’s) London Made 61 Canadian with a tapered black vulcanite stem. Going to do a little more work.
Almost a third of the way through this bowl of year 2014 Edgeworth Ready Rubbed Match in a 2018 full bend smooth Terracotta Peterson XL315 System Standard military mount with a nickel cap and a flared black vulcanite p-lip stem. This'll do it for me today. Reading baseball box scores.
Bayou Morning in a cob.
It's been a while since I last smoked this cob, and once again realized that the chamber diameter doesn't match my favorite tamper

Morning everyone, I just got my latest estates in the mail and after sterilising I’m going to start with this 1922 Duncans Zoie patent 19408/22 with a Chester hallmarked silver inner tube. I’ve not come across a pipe with a silver tube or stinger before and it slides right into the bottom of the bowl. First smoke will be Sutliff RR just to see how it goes 
Country Squire Cowboy Coffee in my Bones billiard.
A silver tube? A pipe for the ‘well heeled’ smoker, I should think. Geezer probably had diamonds on the soles of his hob nail boots an all!
Nice looking pipe, don’t see many of the older Duncan’s.
Good afternoon.

Unlucky, kid. Still, look on the bright side, could’ve been worse than £28.

Does seem extravagant doesn’t it, steel or aluminium would have done the job as well most likely.A silver tube? A pipe for the ‘well heeled’ smoker, I should think. Geezer probably had diamonds on the soles of his hob nail boots an all!

Now THATS cool. Chester is an uncommon hallmark in the pipe world.
I'm doing some Brown Sugar Flake in the Musico pot.
Never really slept, so I'm up and half way through this bowl of early 2000s Edward G. Robinson's Pipe Blend in a 2014 Basil Meadows smooth slight bend squashed tomato with an aluminum band and a black pearl acrylic stem in the military mount style.
This is another new arrival, Carlyle Patent Extra Special on the shank with M ltd on the band with a 1922 London hallmark and the initials B&S in a lozenge. I’ll be trying Solani 633 in this one. 
JC DP Latakia and 20% St James Perique with the last of the coffee.
I forgot to add a picture of the rather unusual screw in stinger on the pipe I just posted. 
Passing the quarter mark on this bowl of Dan Tobacco The Mallard Flake Plus Perique in a straight smooth brown 2017 unbranded Upshall Canadian with a tapered black vulcanite stem. Ice water and bergs is my drink.
