Wow - can't believe it's June already! And I've missed about 10+ pages of this thread!
Still working in my personally restored S. Bang straight brandy, tonight with some McC's No. 2020 "Matured Cake" - a lovely Oriental cake that's only been getting better with age.
Enjoyed a tasty egg sandwich, and am now smoking the very dry year 2010 Villager Virginia No.444 in a smooth straight late 1970s Charatan Special 4148DC Reg. No. 203573 pot with a black double comfort vulcanite stem. Community Coffee is my drink. Going to clean a few pipes.
Almost half way through this bowl of year 2014 St. James Flake in a straight 1968 Dunhill Tanshell octagonal paneled EK F/T billiard with a square shank and tapered black vulcanite stem.
Did a little snacking, and am now smoking Sutliff Dunhill Elizabethan Match in a smooth medium brown, medium bend 1950s B.B.B. Own Make 307 apple with a sterling silver band and black vulcanite saddle stem.
Enjoyed a giant size honey crisp apple, and my last smoke of the day is 1970s Carter Hall in a straight black sandblast undated Savinelli Hercules 115EX pot with a tapered black vulcanite stem. Time to feed the indoor and outdoor cats.
I acquired this unsmoked Stanwell Royal Danish 163 paneled Dublin last night. Traded one of my Peterson System pipes to a buddy of mine.
I figure a pipe like this deserves something special for its inaugural smoke, so it’s getting a dose of 7 year old McClelland Blackwoods Flake.
This should definitely make up for all the hell I’ve been through these last two nights at work.
