Last bowl of the night (probably) is GLP’s Gaslight in a Genoa Bantam. This is like the Valium of tobacco, you can’t help relaxing and feeling content when you’re puffing on this. Have a good evening gentlemen, ladies.
Don't let you wife hear you say that...lol
I’ve not gone Lakeland yet, what do you suggest I try first?
Smoking some Nightcap in a Grabow Royalton smooth bulldog
GH Bosun Cut Plug in a brown blast Briarworks bent billiard.
My comedy of errors with the Gawith order from SmokingPipes continues...
1. First I order Brown Flake U/S and Brown flake Aromatic instead of Dark Flake u/s and Dark Flake Aromatic. I attribute to the fact that I ordered it first thing in the morning, before coffee - but good to try two new tobacco
2. The package of Brown Flake Aromatic that arrived today contained Brown Flake U/S
3. The package of Brown Flake U/S contained Brown Flake Aromatic
So I am now smoking some Brown Flake U/S which was labeled as Brown Flake Aromatic, which was supposed to be Dark Flake Aromatic as per my original intent - In a Briarworks Billiard
It’s a four pipe problem but I will ponder over it when my Dark Flake Unscented and Dark Flake Aromatic arrives from Cup O Joes

A quarter of the way through this bowl of Ken Byron Ventures Oriental Hot Mug in a 1980s White Pipe straight, smooth octagonal paneled billiard meerschaum with an acrylic yellow cream colored saddle stem. Ice water and bergs is my drink.
1792 in a billiard meerschaum with a strong black tea .
She was with me, man. No chance of visiting the local massage parlor today!
"Cosmic Mixture" : Two Stokkebye Luxury Flakes, Twist and Navy mixed 1/2 and1/2. Smoked in an old MM Rob Roy cob with the original orange plastic stem that has darkened to the same color as my accompanying glass of brandy.
Lakeland Dark. No doubt. It's so good,I cut my Grainger with 10 % of it.?
Modern Calabash from the mid 1980s - same as yesterday only smaller
(A closer look at the logo on yesterday's pipe reveals it not to be CB but AB
"The “AB” logo is that of Andreas Bauer, formed in Vienna, Austria in 1906 and called “the best of the best” of Austrian meerschaum pipemakers by Pipedia.
In 1970 the Turkish government banned the export of raw meerschaum, and the trademark was bought by Otto and Kopp, German importers of meerschaum pipes made in Turkey by Konçak Meerschaum of Eskisehir, Turkey")
+ John Aylesbury ENGLISH CLASSIC LATAKIA BLEND
Pipe dedicated to mild-medium Latakia blends:-
Watching THE SWIMMER

Gawith Hoggarth and Company Brown Flake Aromatic in a Peterson Rhodesian- Exquisite!
Bob's square cut in my old Van Roy Graybow. I can't tell there's latakia in this but it's pretty good 
Gawith Hoggarth & Co.: Coniston Cut Plug in a Meer...
A quarter of the way through this bowl of Sutliff Dunhill Elizabethan Match in a 1979 Loewe Army smooth straight dark brown billiard with a silver cap military mount and a tapered black vulcanite stem. This is the first time I've smoked this new-to-me pipe. I always wanted a Loewe's pipe, and now I have one.
Thanks for the kind words, my smokers.
