Nice start to Saturday. Uhle Perfection Plug Burley in a Stanwell Dublin. With coffee. Burley and coffee pair like wine and cheese. 
Some Edward G Robinson in a Irwin london made 
Cobblestone English Plug in a Meer.
Did a set of walking reps, and am close to finishing this bowl of year 2016 D&R Three Sails in an undated straight brush etched black Molina apple with a nickel band and a tapered black vulcanite stem.
GL Pease Jackknife Plug in a 9mm Butz Choquin bent Billiard. 
Cube cut burley I picked up locally in a Savinelli Oscar Tiger 673. English Breakfst Tea.
Wow! What a beauty that pipe is!
The Librarians with enjoying some Wessex Dark Flake in the Tekin.
Immediately after a wonderful lunch of ham/cheese sandwich and alphabet soup - with extra consonants added in - I am now enjoying 50% Prince Albert and 50% Five Brothers - to up the nicotine level - in my Italian-made 6.0" Brigham Algonquin #233 Billiard with bent Vulcanite stem.
I should have retired this pipe from my rotation long-ago, as no matter what blend I smoke in it, it heats up something fierce; however, it is the very first decent pipe I ever purchased and started me on my love of Brigham pipes and Brigham price-points.
When I need a good nicotine spike and I blend-up some PA50%-5B50%, I always use a smaller bowl, rather than 1/2 load up say my big Brigham Brandy; therefore, this pipe still makes an occasional appearance into my rotation. I have to say, of all the Brigham pipes which I own, this is the only one which offers any "idiosyncrasies". - Sherm Natman

G&H Glengarry Flake in a Unfinished Savinelli 673
Eight state burley 2022 in the altinay. If this stuff was regularly available (and at bulk prices) it would be a go to for me right up there with SWR and Pegasus. It’s just fantastic. Nic hit, complexity, creamy mouth feel, and the orientals give it a sour, herbal complexity that I don’t get in any other burley blend. Definitely an all time favorite for me.
Enjoyed a tasty lunch, have a third of a bowl left of year 2022 4Noggins Bald Headed Teacher in a 2002 IMP smooth full bend egg shaped meer with a black acrylic stem. Lavazza Espresso, neat, is my drink.
Yes, the coloring project made me focus on the Altinay purely. It is probably 60% done now, so hopefully soon.
Thank you! Hopefully the coloring project is close to being over.
After lunch MB vanilla roll cakes in a Peterson standard 305
