About to enjoy some more BR Bourbon and Whiskey Aro, this time in a painted MM Cob!

Some Elizabethan Mixture in a hardwood while reading one of my favorite authors.

I think I might make them the needle felted sheep ??? and the blue tits I got for Christmas ???.

I always thought it was titties and beer? Maybe that's just a USA thing???...

1999 Dorchester in my SHP dublin.

I think you may be right
Good looking pipe

Yes, but that pinched shank kind of reminds me of those Victorian/Edwardian newspaper adverts for corsets

Scotty's Bulk Blends - Angler's Dream in an Old Dominion Cob (something different!)...

That style reminds me a bit of the Akron reed stem clays

Relaxing after a wonderful salad, chicken legs and snow peas dinner with a scoop of vanilla bean ice cream for dessert. I'm about half way through this bowl of year 2001 VaPer Three Nuns in a 1938 straight black grain relief Dunhill OX Shell bulldog with a silver band repair with a black vulcanite saddle stem. Ice water and bergs is my drink. Watching Heavenly Body starring William Powell and Hedy Lamarr.

It reminds me a bit of this Praetor you helped me identify back in June

@Winterreise its a deerstalker with flaps. It was made by Haggerts of Aberfeldy who made suits and hats for sporting estates including the Royal Family. Sadly their premises is now a cafe though I’m sure someone has bought the trade name. The beauty of ear flaps is twofold, keeping the ears warm and keeping the hat securely on your head. They were made of Scottish milled Tweed. A retailer of similar hats is House of Bruar, not the cheapest but an excellent selection.
I hope this helps and thanks for the comment ?
Happy smokes

Yorktown in a Pete

 

[Eye-level]

Smoking Killarney in the Edward's 742-L. Cooking some chicken thighs, potatoes, and portobello mushrooms on the Hasty-bake. Drinking a ginger ale and watching Monty Python Holy Grail with the wife of 25 years. I'm a fortunate man.

GH&Co Broken Scotch Cake in a Savinelli Roma 702 billiard.

 

[JimInks]

Almost half way through this bowl of year 2013 Capstan Blue in a smooth dark brown post-WWII Comoy’s Grand Slam 340 patent billiard with a tapered black vulcanite stem.

Thankfully the temperature has dropped somewhat and it's altogether much more pleasant this afternoon.

The 1st bowl is Greg Pease's well-rubbed out Stonehenge Flake

In a Stanwell Royal Prince Shape 02. A Sixten Ivarsson designed bent egg

And with it a measure of Grappa from master distiller Romano Levi of Distilleria Levi Serafino in Neive. This bottle was distilled in 2005 (before his death in 2008)
