HU Moroccan Bazaar this morning with coffee. And a short story regarding the pipe: "The Smoker had an idea and described to the Carver. The Carver designed, further developed and came back to the Smoker with a much improved version of his initial idea. Result: Deal! Both parts happy, win-win case." End of story. The characters: "the Smoker" - Christos D. Tsatsaronis, "the Carver" - George Leoussis from GL Pipes.
Enjoy the weekend good people!

Almost forgot-I had Irish Flake/FVF mix again this evening taking care of the horses while the wife bathed the midget, this time in my Stanwell for Poul Olsen “My Own Blend” blasted 079.
Speaking of midgets, my granddaughter entered the world this afternoon-7lb 4oz, healthy, and beautiful.
Her brother was being a stubborn little cuss this afternoon, but saw the ramifications of “faff around and find out” and got his attitude squared away.

Congratulations!!! Lets light up for her, her parents and their grandparents ;) puffy puffy puffy
Is she born on the 5th or the 4th?

Some haul from yesterday, SG BBF and Macbaren Vanilla Flakes (best on the Refbjerg) :sher:
Two different sandblasting style. The Dunhill is 1978 somewhat less craggy than the older ones. Refbjerg is craggier, deeper blast, with V shaped bowl.
The Diplomat is probably best for BBF puffy

Almost a third of the way through this bowl of year 2014 Uhle’s 00 in a straight smooth brown post-WW2 LHS Purex Superfine 74 Canadian with a metal screw-in tenon and a tapered black vulcanite stem. Fed all the ferals except for the still missing Abner the Eager. Going to read baseball box scores now.

Enjoyed a tasty golden delicious apple, and am a quarter of the way through this bowl of Seattle Pipe Club Give Me Liberty in a straight smooth medium brown pre-1920 straight Marechal Ruchon & Cie. Royale apple with a sterling silver band and a tapered black vulcanite stem.

FurCoat, I, too, had an Austin America, bought it new for $1,800. I drove it more than 20 miles (to and from my teaching job) each day for 5 years. It finally blew the tranny. But my mechanic had one with a destroyed engine. We swapped my engine into the other Austin and I drove that one for another 5 years! I went from a British Racing Green AA to a Leland Blue one. And yes, being a British Leland Motors product, it spent quite a lot of time in the shop. But I absolutely loved that car.
