"Burley Balkan" in my blue cob dedicated to English/Latakia blends. I was looking through my jar shelf for something with burley to smoke and I found this, it's a home mix I made a long while back that I totally forgot about. No clue what's in it other than the title on the sticker, and it smells like a lotta Latakia.

That first one is very similar to mine. Just a bit different with the decoration at the mount. I think I prefer the thinner shank and overall shaping of the second one, but I bet either one would be a fine choice. Both of my Stanwells were cheapies, but both have been good and reliable smokers. As for the laundry room, hey man, it beats being totally outside ?

Now smoking Boson Plug in a Stanwell Brushed Black 45 pot.

Snacked a tad more, and am half way through this bowl of Watch City Blue Ridge Special in a 2012 smooth reddish brown medium bend Peterson 03 Red Spray apple silver spigot with a tapered black acrylic fish tail stem. I need another pipe to smoke English blends, so this one gets the nod. More Community Coffee, neat, if you please! :)

While ZOOM-ing with the Saturday crew, I enjoyed a bowl of Fellowship I (the 2007 10th. Anniversary NASPC show blend from G.L. Pease), in a Colm Magner 03 quarter bent, saddle-stemmed, blasted billiard. A cup of Upton Tea's Baker Street Afternoon Blend went nicely with the tobacco.

Last smoke of the day is D&R Windsail in a 2013 straight black sandblasted Peterson Sherlock Holmes Series Baker Street with a sterling silver band and a tapered black vulcanite fish tail stem. Watching the rest of the 1971 All Star game.
