All footie and rugby here in Italy. Wish I knew the rules to rugby, looks interesting but hard to follow for us dumb Americans. Wait- they tell me to claim that I am Canadian.

Edward G Robinson blend in a Johnson, coffee while sitting in the garden 
Starting off the first Saturday in June with Capt Earl’s Private stock in a Blatter and Blatter rusticated bent billiard. Bought it from their store in Montreal a few years ago when I was visiting there. Not the best pipe I own but sentimental as it’s the first pipe I ever actually purchased when I was jumping into this fine sport. 
Dorchester in a one star, antique bark, bent billiard, Ferndown. The idea I have for my pipe collection is to collect in 7 day sets, sometimes by brand, sometimes by region. Such as, 7 Les Wood, 7 Danish, etc. I thought this might slow me down, but it’s funny, once I pick a direction, the pipes keep appearing, and I either have to pick only one of several available, or put off buying due to budget constraints. Easier said then done!
I’d like to be friends with this guy Chris too!
Regents Flake in the Kyriazanos army mount.
Regent Street in my brand new Castello square sea rock pipe purchased at Fincato Tabacceria in Rome.
More chores and a run to town. Devil’s Holiday in the truck cob.
Have an awesome weekend, unless you’ve got other plans!

Isn’t it nice when you wake up and know exactly what you want to smoke? Pegasus in the IMP Meerschaum. Black coffee in my cup and birds in my ear.
MM’s Great Dane in The French Pipe #2 with cappuccino.
Sir John's Flake Virginia in an Altinok. Bowl 96.
50/50 Happy Brown Boggie and Tambolaka in a Stanwell/Ivarsson

No. VAT is actually more than shipping. The dude gave me a10% discount to help offset the tax. Pretty close to the same.
Morning coffee with Bayou Veermaster (BV) in the Bones Poker on a beautiful, comfortable sunny Saturday morning. I am still enjoying my BV...but it does not compell me as much as it did (maybe i prefer it with fresh Hamborger?) and am finding myself hankering for more Blackadder (Peretti Crown/Peretti Ebony mix) which I finished up and have determined I do need to mix more of that up!
I finally met one in the wild! He actually chased me down to talk pipes, and I am sharing a bowl of Regent Street with him. He could not afford tobacco he said, so I gave him a bowl. Nice guy, of course- he smokes a pipe!
