Pegasus in a Peterson, Post work but Pre dinner, with the Ozzie flies well and truly Pissing me off.
(Maybe I should try Petersons 3Ps in my Peterson one day perhaps..)
You see I never really noticed until now...
Seriously though. Yikes!
Good point!

I've been smoking some Solani Silver Flake I jarred back in 2017 in a MM freehand while out in the cold snowy weather here in Québec with my shovel. I'm reminded that I must order more tins of this stuff... it's damned good with some age on it.
Mac Baren Dark Twist from 2017 into a Ropp Vintage Briar Bulldog , my wife having a rare bowl of her favorite blend, Gawith Hoggarth & Co Kendal Dark into a cutty meer.
Must be a Gawith/meerschaum night. Cube cut 1792 Flake.
Thanks for the recommendation. I'll take another look at it - I thought it was just a simple VaPer but I see it has dark fired and some more interesting components along with comparisons to the old Three Nuns (always a good sign). Will pop it onto the "try" list and give it a fair puff.
Close to finishing this bowl of Erik Stokkebye 4th Generation Evening Flake in a smooth medium bend 2021 Peterson Ebony POTY 4AB No. 422/500 military mount with a silver cap and a tapered black vulcanite AB stem.
When I originally posted a pic of this pipe in the Barling thread in December, I thought it was unsmoked. I was reluctant to smoke it as such; I liked the idea of it surviving unsmoked for so long, which made it more interesting. Smoking it would just make it a used low budget Barling. But, after a brief exchange with sablebrush52, I took a closer look and found some tiny remnants of tobacco ribbon adhered to the wall at the bottom of the chamber. So, I've revised my thoughts and think this has been smoked, so I may as well smoke it. It's a transition period Barling, circa 1962, possibly from a Seconds line. The logo is the script "Barling" with no apostrophe, no "s." There are no model number stamps, just the company name and "LONDON ENGLAND." The logo seems oddly close to the end of the shank (going off actually), so I wonder if it was shortened, or if the logo placement is what made it a second. The BB&S appears on the stem (sablebrush52 thought that unusual). I wonder if this is right in the middle of the transition period where things are still in flux. In any case, I'm having SG FVF in this diminutive Barling Bent Billiard.
Enjoyed a tasty golden delicious apple, and am smoking Edgeworth Ready Rubbed Match in a 2019 black rusticated Peterson 312 full bend billiard with a military mount and a nickel cap with a cumberland 4AB stem and a N.A.P. bit.

Close to 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. Fed two ferals, and put up a wind blocker where Big Stripesy snoozes to help keep him warmer.
