@FoggyMorning Nice pipe; I'll have to get a Williamsburg one. Would be perfect for Redcoats & Revolutionaries. I think the Jamestown pipe suits the Sealed Knot / English Civil War re-enactments.
Smoking Grasmere Flake from 2020 in this late 19th century or early 20th century BBB meerschaum 'cutty' pipe with silver repair work and new faux amber stem. The pipe was a gift to me from Eric in Georgia many years ago who used to post on this forum but I have not seen him around for a while. He was into those beautiful aluminum air biscuit caravans that were very popular in the 1950/1960s. A lovely man who was very fond of his Condor and if he is reading this someone I would welcome a call from at anytime. Enjoy your morning since I have a lot of ground to cover today and I will look in on you all about coffee time!
Good day all! Starting this overcast Florida morning by finishing a tin of C&D Bayou Morning in an Upshall sandblast Bulldog with smooth rim and hex shank with matching saddle stem size 3-4.
I think Jamestowne is a beautiful pipe and its "foot" seems way more functional than Williamsburg's. But I might have trouble with lighting baccy up due to the more cant bowl.
@FoggyMorning Yes I agree, I especially had a bit more trouble lighting the twist I was smoking at the Battle of Nantwich; part of the authentic 17th Century smoke I guess!
Trying some Orlik Golden Sliced in a Rossi Poker this morning 
Spark Plug in a Satou. What a unique pipe, 25 grams, group 3. His finish is indestructible.

Home! Back to my morning routine! Coffee, burley, cob. Two weeks of hotel hopping. It is good to be back on my little patch!
