Relaxing after a wonderful salad, rack of baby back ribs and baked potato dinner with a scoop of Trio chocolate ice cream for dessert. I'm a quarter of the way through this bowl of year 2001 VaPer Three Nuns in a 1980s White Pipe straight lattice apple meerschaum with an acrylic yellow cream colored saddle stem. Community Coffee, neat, is my drink. Watching Laurel and Hardy shorts.

I think that's a similar plan for me too: a 7-day briar set; a 7-day meer/morta set; and then 'disposable' ones/cobs when necessary.
I'm sure pipes will come in and out of the 7-day sets but I do want to refine my collection and focus more on smoking tobacco!
(That said, I just bought a new meerschaum ? - we're all hypocrites and enablers here, don't be shy boys)

Caught some flakes from the recent Gawith drop and it came in record time (a little over 48 hr) - sampling some GH&Co Dark Flake in this new AKB meerschaum I picked up to test out the weight-gained-vs-coloration theory:
Tonight was Orion's Arrow in the rusticated Peterson bent house pipe.
Half way through this bowl of D&R Penhooker Silver in a 1990 straight dark brown Commemorative reproduction of the 1890 Peterson Patent System 12393 stack billiard with a silver band and a bowed black acrylic 32 AB long stem p-lip. Watching an episode of The Addams Family.
Black Frigate in a cob, on a frigid night with shot of rye whiskey , I understand why our fore fathers did the same thing.
Love the honesty!I think that's a similar plan for me too: a 7-day briar set; a 7-day meer/morta set; and then 'disposable' ones/cobs when necessary.

Looks like the perfect pipe for a nice tasty, stout blend.?I think that's a similar plan for me too: a 7-day briar set; a 7-day meer/morta set; and then 'disposable' ones/cobs when necessary.

Dedicating this one to English blends, Plum Pudding is delicious so far.
My favourite pipe baccy!
Will be getting some more when reenactment starts again!
Going to down another clay pipe of Special Virginia!
Going for an early night. Just postponed a bowl of GLP Stratford, in favor of HH Balkan in a Rossi 8320. Goodnight all.
Just finished smoking FVF in a smooth 2002 medium bend flame grain Rinaldo Collection Silver Line silver spigot 10 Egea 03 Titania with a black acrylic stem. Time to snack and decide on the next smoke.
C&D Billy Bud in a Savinelli Solaria Bent Dublin 611EX.

I enjoyed the full packet of Virginia No. 1 I got from @marconi in my clay pipes.
Very delicious - Man it went down well!!!
Good to see they've gone back to metal tins as they're much better for the environment before than non-recyclable plastic packets and you can re-use them once they're empty - if you can get rid of the baccy smell that is!!!!
A quarter of the way through this bowl of Mac Baren Burley London Blend in a 2017 smooth, straight medium brown made in France Comoy’s Riband 298 Canadian with a black vulcanite tapered stem. This will finish the tin from the recent production. Watching an episode of The Saint. Ice water and bergs is my drink.
I enjoyed my Full Virginia Flake in my clay pipes - there's a sense of history smoking Samuel Gawith / Gawith Hoggarth blends in a clay pipe!
