Love it! I don’t know if I’ve seen many saddle bit 10s but it works well.

Just finished smoking year 2015 Mac Baren Virginia #1 in a straight black 1925 Dunhill patent shell Canadian 33 with a tapered black vulcanite stem. Community Coffee, neat, is my drink.
Off to work with a bowl of year 2020 D&R Raccoon’s Friend in a pre-1980s straight dark brown Comoy's Sandblast 186 billiard with a tapered black vulcanite stem.
C&D John Marr in a cob.
C&D Winchester in a Peterson Army 80s.

Father Dempsey in a Peterson then bed 
Pegasus in a cob, this time the smooth one
Goodnight all
Goodnight all
Sam G. Palace Gate in my old Ansell’s of Washington diamond shank billiard with saddle step stem. There’s real tobacco under the coconut
Earlier, I smoked a bowl of year 2022 Watch City Blue Ridge Special in a straight smooth ebony post-WW2 LHS Sterncrest 91 bulldog with a sterling silver band, a diamond shank and a tapered black vulcanite stem.
And I just finished smoking Wilke Surbrug’s Crystal Palace in a dark brown smooth straight post-WW2 LHS Certified Purex 79 bulldog with a nickel ferrule and tenon with a black vulcanite saddle stem. Just spent the last ten minutes rotating my cats (Sleepy Suzy and Molly Danger), Daisy the Feral Princess and Tomato the Brave around the kitchen so all could eat in peace. Now, it's Abner the Eager's turn, and I can get back to work. Ice water and bergs is my drink.

Peterson Deluxe Navy Roll in a Ropp billiard.
Now smoking year 2020 D&R Windsail in a smooth straight dark brown family era “Canadian” by Sasieni with a tapered black vulcanite stem.
While I was out walking this afternoon, I called for Tomato the Brave. He came out of the sewer, and ran to me. He's still limping, but he runs fast. He must have caught a cold because he’s been sneezing for the last three days. I let him in to eat, and when he finished, he jumped on my chair and stayed by my side for a while.
I was reminded of this story: Some months back when I was calling for Tomato the Brave, a moron friend of one of my neighbors asked me why was I calling for a tomato. I answered in an Elmer Fudd voice, "Shhhh... be velly velly quiet. I am hunting tomatoes, huhuhuhuhuh!" She didn't get the joke, but my neighbor did. He was laughing when he explained it to her, well knowing that she is unintelligent. I shook my head at the thought that a forty-something year old person never heard of Elmer Fudd.

Enjoyed a tasty golden delicious apple, and am smoking D&R Penhooker Silver in a straight smooth brown undated pre-Republic Peterson Shamrock 263 Canadian with a nickel band and a tapered black p-lip stem.
Half way through this bowl of year 2014 Edgeworth Ready Rubbed Match in a 2018 full bend smooth Terracotta Peterson XL315 System Standard military mount with a nickel cap and a flared black vulcanite p-lip stem. Reading and relaxing with Sleep Suzy by my side. Molly Danger is batting a catnip ball around the den.
Morning everyone, started off the day with Steamworks in the Astley’s billiard, now with my second coffee I’m having Duke Albert in a cob with lovely red forever stem. 
Yesterday I had 2 bowls of fresh Virginia Slices in a Chacom Bacarra. I will have another smoke of that today on the way to work. I'll probably smoke it in the same pipe

Ronseco Golden Harvest Red ($10 a pound) shag in my Royal Ascot Supreme Algerian Chimney.
Even a leather tongued old addict like me can smoke this all day long for less than a dollar and it’s good, mild, tasty, nictotine rich tobacco.
It reads Premium Pipe Tobacco
Manufactured for use in a pipe
And that’s every word true. It’s an American Lakeland, tastes like coumarin and molasses and nuts.
Some pipe smokers, don’t roll this up into cigarettes.
