***What Are You Smoking, June 2025?***

[JimInks]

A quarter of a bowl left of year 2014 Edgeworth Ready Rubbed Match in a very much appreciated 1979 brown, slight bend grain etched flat front Stanwell Rego 969-48 (09) with a black vulcanite saddle stem. Ice water and bergs is my drink. Fed all the ferals except for the absent Abner the Eager. Watching the Nats-D-Backs game.

 

[JimInks]

Now smoking first production Watch City American Cut Plug Mixture in a straight smooth brown Algerian briar family era Barling’s Make Billiard 6 with a tapered black vulcanite stem. The stampings suggest 1930s, but the “6” is a previously unknown stamp number and placement. This pipe is from the estate of David Cuneo.

Holy Jack in the Box, Jim! June already!?! Bringing in the new month (apparently) with Wingfield in the Royal Ascot Supreme Billiard, and Monophonics on the radio...

The next pipe of my Pete weekend is a Sherlock Holmes Lestrade - with a stunning deep sandblast


With a bowl of cube cut Rattray Marlin Flake

 

[Peterson314]

Celebrating halfway to Christmas Pipes with PS Blend in my Peterson 05 - 2024.

 

[JimInks]

Now smoking year 2012 Anniversary Kake in a smooth burgundy medium bend 1979 Chippendale (Charatan second) Rhodesian 49 with a black vulcanite saddle stem. Smokes as well as a first and worth the $19.95 I paid for it all those years ago. Watching the Orioles-White Sox replay of today's game.

 

[Tbaggins]

Veermaster in a Mimmo Provenzano.

Old Joe Krantz in a Pete SPD 2011 69.

 

[rsshreck32]

Sansepolcro in a Rossi Mezzanotte Bent Brandy, same as last night. Picked up my son and daughter in law at Memphis Airport tonight. Late getting back due to flight delays. After sitting in a car for hours, now I can't sleep!

 

[dottlejockey]

Hoping to get some sleep soon. Late dinner and coffee tonight not helping. Have some fencing to build tomorrow, so of course tonight will be a late one. On the plus side, plenty of time for another pipeful. For the first smoke of the June thread (already) HBC in an IMP.

Briar Fox in a Jirsa 210.

 

[JimInks]

Passing the last third of this bowl of year 2000 SWRA in a straight smooth 2024 Peterson Red Killarney 264 Canadian with metal accents around the shank and a black acrylic p-lip stem. Fed Daisy the Feral Princess and Tomato the Brave after I fed Harry the Hairy. Harry wanted my attention, and he got a lot of it. Sleepy Suzy is eating now, and when she finishes, I'll bring Abner the Eager in for some eats.

 

[JimInks]

Now smoking year 2020 D&R VIP in a 2004 smooth long shank Trever Talbot Ligne Bretagne Faite en Bretagne 4/3 lumberman with a tapered black vulcanite stem. Abner the Eager ate, and then got on top of my chair to avoid the other ferals. Daisy the Feral Princess and Tomato wanted out about a minute after. Abner decided that was a good idea because the rain had stopped, so he jumped off the chair to the floor. I opened the door and Harry the Hairy came close to it. Abner "gurred" at him, and Harry backed off. Then, Tomato the Brave wanted back in, and he and Harry did a little arguing while Abner kept "gurring" them. I went outside to move Harry away, and Tomato came inside and ran right by Abner. Abner was afraid to go out, so I put him back on the chair top, gave him a little attention, and he's settled down now. Wish they all would. Time for me to finish reading baseball box scores.

 

[JimInks]

Last smoke of the day is year 2021 Watch City Queequeg’s Moby Dick Series in a slight bend smooth brown post WWII 1940s Sasieni Ivory 101 Westminster diplomat with a black vulcanite saddle stem. Finished reading box scores, and have a few things to do before bed time. Abner the Eager finally decided that the coast was clear to go outside, so he's out. Tomato the Brave is snoozin' on his favorite blanket. The others are outside.

Smoking mb# virginia flake, in a MM Cobbler. Although my sense of smell is still almost nil, and it's like the pipe is empty, and I'm smoking hot air, I barely feel the “aroma”, I think at 0000000,1%. I think it's already two weeks of the flu. I have stopped smoking, once I finished the first third. I wish you a happy Sunday.

 

[Sigmund]

Finishing some Makhuwa from earlier this morning. Smoking in a Damiano Rovera.
I am still adding a sprinkle of Janneman to it to round it out. If you have both give it a try. about 15 percent is all it takes.

 

[newbroom]

Mixed up some J-4, with a little Big 'n Burley, perique and sweet VA and have some smoldering in my old Grabow Rhodesian rescue pipe. I hack sawed the top off and then rasped the rim. It had a chunk or two out of its original.

Haunted Bookshop Cake in a small DM Stanwell Freehand.

 

[JimInks]

Barely slept, so I'm awake and smoking year 2015 D&R A.B. Rimboche in an undated slight bend, smooth flame grain Wessex Standard egg with a brown accent on the black vulcanite saddle stem. Fed Harry the Hairy outside and brought Daisy the Feral Princess in to avoid conflict. I'm going to do some reading.
