@virkia Love that clay churchwarden!
Would be a shame to smoke it as it would discolour though!

I do believe I managed to get a mild sunburn but still worth the time in the pool with a bowl of Sutliff #707 Sweet VA in a Savinelli rusticated Lolita followed by some WCC Old Dominion in a cob with a couple glasses of Hickory Hill 12 year old Bourbon.

 

[JimInks]

A third of the way through this bowl of D&R Penhooker Silver in a 1982 smooth straight Sasieni Ivory 105 Apple with a black vulcanite saddle stem. This will get to me to dinner time. Watching the Super Bowl.

I would accidentally snap that beautiful thing into pieces in seconds I'm sure. If you look in certain encyclopedias for the definition of "ham-fisted" you will see my picture.

Relaxing after a wonderful salad, trout and sugar snap peas with a scoop of Dutch chocolate ice cream for dessert. I've about a quarter of a bowl left of Watch City Rouxgaroux in a smooth straight late ‘50s, early 1960s Lane era Charatan Selected 43 Dublin with a black vulcanite double comfort saddle stem. This pipe was formerly owned by actor William Conrad.

I’ve had to have a fifth bowl, Jamaican Flake in a Bantam. This is becoming painful to watch.
