About a third of a bowl left of year 2012 Rolando’s Own in a smooth straight early ‘60s Lane era “William Conrad” Charatan Executive Extra Large stretch apple with diagonal channel cuts on the lower right and left of the bowl along with a black vulcanite double comfort saddle stem. Chatting with the fella who gifted me the pipe.

I'd like to see how long I can make a clay pipe of baccy last; need to go out of town and pack my bowl properly!
I found out the organised clay pipe slow smoking competition are using St Bruno Ready Rubbed so I'll have to get a packet for when my friends and I have our own competition. Need to collect my clay pipes from Mum and Dad's before!!!

@Ettrick puffer I'll have to get some Black Frigate and Blockade Runner to smoke in my clay pipes; the Romanian lady I know at a group meeting says her family aren't near the border with Ukraine. Kiev looks a beautiful city; a shame it's fallen to the Russians:-(

Soon to set some Newminster Light Burley ablaze in its dedicated Lorenzo basket pipe while walking the dog. -11 Celsius here. Feels like summer ?
After spending a very long day helping my first born to win prizes in regional History and Geography Bee (Only help he needed from me was to drive him there and keep him fed and hydrated) relaxing with an aged Peterson Irish Oak in a Bruce Weaver Bamboo Apple ?

@halfdan Kyiv hasn’t fell to the Russians. Hopefully they see sense and withdraw. Pirate Kake is highly recommended if you enjoy Latakia.
Happy smokes
Slava Ukraine ??

One of the few aros I like with Sweet Killarney this morning. Don’t smoke very much or very often - but, on occasion I enjoy it with a cup of coffee. Contrary to the poor reviews, I find it to be tasty. Will have a follow-up bowl to this to really kick-start the day though…

@Ettrick puffer I've got a tin of Pirate Kake to smoke in my clay pipes but I'm saving it for the Pirate Mutiny at Matlock Bath in August.
Saving the Virginia Cake for the Jamestown re-enactment and the Yorktown for the Redcoats and Revolutionaries event at Cromford Mill. I might even get it lit from the forge again:)
