Enjoyed a tasty golden delicious apple, and smoked a bowl of Watch City Rhythm & Blues in a straight smooth brown 1920s-30s Sasieni patent 8 dot Marborough lovat with a black vulcanite saddle stem.

Now smoking Wilke Hearth of Galway in an undated smooth straight medium brown made in France Saillard Lord Clerit lumberman with a black vulcanite saddle stem. Ice water and bergs is my drink. Listening to Fibber McGee and Molly while I work.
Be well @Bengel. Today I started with 507-C in an unfinished Savinelli. I repeated the trick after work. Goodnight smoke was HH Burley Flake in a Grabow Pot.
Just finished smoking year 2016 Orlik Golden Sliced in an early 20th century Gordon Special Bruyere 49 apple with a triangular shank and black vulcanite stem. Have a little more work to do.
Snacked on a few peanuts, and am smoking D&R Penhooker Silver in a straight smooth brown undated pre-republic Peterson Shamrock 263 Canadian with a nickel band and a black tapered vulcanite p-lip stem. Whether this is my last smoke of the day or not depends on when I finish the last page on this Archie story.
It's morning in Florida! Apparently today will be warmer than yesterday and finally the rain has let up. I am hopeful that Saturday will be warm and pleasant for the Florida Pipe Club meet in Tampa. It will be fun to see all the guys again and catch up. Today I am kicking my day off with a bowl of G&H Broken #7 Flake while I prep some Bosuns Plug for my after breakfast bowl. My pipe de jour is this wonderful 5 3/4 inch meerschaum 'cutty' pipe with a silver band hallmarked Birmingham 1900 with a very robust faux amber stem. Here is a picture set against my Moleskine daily task book to give you some idea of scale. Enjoy your morning and I will talk to you later!

@condorlover1 Hope you're well; it's been very windy ?️ here in Derbyshire!
Reminds me of the time I went to see the Sealed Knot and Dad says I spent all day trying to light my clay pipe

Not far from finishing this bowl of Angler's Dream in a 2018 natural smooth medium bend Peterson 03 apple silver spigot military mount with a tapered black acrylic fish tail stem. I finally finished that story!
They came free with the 2021 Peterson Christmas pipes from Smkinpipes.com. Smokingipes.eu gave away Sherlock tampers with every Peterson they sold in late December too.
I broke the shank at the mortise of a Lorenzo carved rusticated, 1/2 bent billiard a long while back, just re-inserting (perhaps absentmindedly?) the stem. I'd been smoking this pipe regularly since I 'won' it at auction for about $10 or $20. It was a favorite and I was unhappy.
I kept the stummel and yesterday managed a decent fit with a military mount stem from another pipe by using some large drill bits and turning it by hand and some sandpaper.
I've got a mix in my bowl that I'm smoking this week consisting of Sutliff J-4 (burley) TS1-R (red VA) 507-S (stoved VA, and a nice handful of Lane's Dark Red.

Good morning everyone.

Breakfast is done so it time for a bowl of Bosuns Plug in the same 1900 'cutty' I posted earlier as I am trying to get the sh*t brown coloring to finally cross the line and start coloring the foot and base of the bowl. I could post a picture to illustrate my point but you can work it out by looking at my previous post on page 71 or there about.
Scottish Cake in a Tekin. This bowl will finish off the tin. I’m undecided on what to open next.
