Now smoking Watch City American Cut Plug Mixture in a straight smooth brown undated Gesandt Canadian Made in England with a tapered black vulcanite stem. This pipe was originally owned by Poul Schluter, who was the Prime Minister of Denmark from 1982-1993. Ice water and bergs is my drink.
Back in the smoking lounge for one more round before bed after a 3 cigar day out and about. A fat bowl of aged Tilbury in an Ahmet Govem commission.
Haunted Bookshop Cake in a Pete SPD 2011 69 with coffee. 
Wow, that’s really nice!
Is that a clip on the side of the stem, and what is that going across the stem, just after the clip?
Oh, did you just buy this?
Enjoy!
Did a little low calorie snacking, and am a quarter of the way through this bowl of year 2021 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. Fed all the ferals, and my cats.
St. Espresso in a blasted Bruce Weaver billiard with an ebonite stem and Sterling silver band.
2nd bowl of the morning is HU Makhuwa in a Pete Donegal Rocky XL90 that I let dry overnight.
No clips just a wildly swirled stem.
I've had it for about 3 years. No more pipes, on a fixed income now.
Makhuwa plus lat in an il Ceppo.
Earlier, I smoked a bowl of year 2014 Astley’s No. 55 in a 1915-1920 straight smooth dark brown BBB Own Make 150 apple with a silver band and a tapered black vulcanite stem.
Currently, I'm half way through this bowl of year 2016 Peter Stokkebye Luxury Navy Flake in a straight smooth brown post-1964 Parker Super Bruyere 88/F group 3 bulldog with a tapered black vulcanite stem.

Last smoke of the day is Wilke Pickett’s Charge in a post-WW2 straight smooth brown pre-Republic Peterson’s Dublin 3 bulldog with a nickel band and a tapered black vulcanite p-lip stem. Just fed all the ferals, and both Abner the Eager and Harry the Hairy wanted to go out. I put Abner out the front door so Harry wouldn't chase him away. Reading while this bowl lasts.
The Italian school of craftsmanship is still recognizable.Orlik Golden Sliced in a Karl Erik Handmade. 
This along with the Caporal Export are my very favorite among tabacs brun francaises, this St Claude has a bit of Virginias in it yet slightly topped with tonka has broader cut than Caporal. As a side note, all of these Tabac Gris*(/Dark shag cut) are done by Barens company and the quality has been up since they took over the production, now it remains to see what will happen to these traditional blends when STG takes over

Lane RR in a Country Gent.
That Ringo is a handsome chap - I've never seen a male ginger tabby before: they're quite rare, I'm told. At least, here in UK.
I read that first as 'Cwmbargoed', and was surprised I never new they were growing tobacco in the South Wales valleys...Embargoed Red VA in my MarTelo billiard.
