Gawith Hoggarth’s Dark Birds Eye in an Altinay translucent meerschaum billiard
C&D CRF w/P 2023 in a Peterson Derry 69.
Relaxing after a wonderful salad, haddock and sugar snap peas dinner with strawberries for dessert. I get to have an off diet day tomorrow. I'm a third of the way through this bowl of year 2021 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. Community Coffee, neat, is my drink.
Currently smoking my Meerschaum Market bent apple meer with the last of my Iwan Ries - Old Colonial.
Then I'm in complete envy. After 3 or 4 weeks I've never had a pipe that looked anything but like ratspit lol!! Never buy expensive pipes because having only one useable eye, got no depth perception. Only my sandblasted ones survive the blitzkrieg.
Char city!
Apéritif bowl of Makhuwa in a Ser Jacopo.
Bijou in a Wiley panel. A bit of light snow and bitter cold on the way here in Denver.
Trying RLP-6 for the first time in a Nording. The missus approved of this one upon smelling the charring light, and I like it too... which makes sense because I really like HGL.
Tonight's bowl was SG Best brown in a Stanwell. I won't mention my previous few smokes as I had covid and it messed up my olfactory. Every bowl I attempted tasted like wet burning cardboard. This bowl tasted 70% normal with a hint of cardboard. I'm heading in the right direction. This was my first bowl since before Christmas. I was sick as a dog for 2 weeks.
Just wrapping up a bowl of Peterson Nightcap in a Dunhill 021 F/T Redbark
Six year old Six Pence in a smooth meer brandy.
Time to show the Danes some love after the recent rounds of STG bashing (deservedly or not) 
After all the current Queen of Denmark, Mary, is an Aussie
A couple of Danish made Stanwells
The 1st is an Sixten Ivarsson designed Shape 24 (from early ‘70s) which has been re-stemmed.
Here it is with the original straight saddle stem
With a bowl of MacBaren’s Navy Flake

RLP6 was one of my first blends. I liked it better than 1Q, it tastes like toasted marshmallows to me.
I've never seen anybody complain about Danish pipemaking lmfao. From what I've seen most people feel the Danish made Stanwells are much better than the current Italian made ones. I must say the bent stem looks much better on it than the original.Time to show the Danes some love after the recent rounds of STG bashing (deservedly or not)

I left my wallet in El Segundo.
Looking for something on the bolder side tonight.
