I like the stem on yours better.

GLP Cairo in honor of the Great Saharan Dust Storm of 2025. Savinelli 311KS. In the old days, they would just say "Its gonna be hazy out today folks".

I'll be very interested in your findings. Telegraph Hill was my first intro to GLP blends -- and I loved it. I have a tin in my stock, but it's only about 2 years old. Nice looking Meer by the way. Cheers!

Thank you! I should have an amateur review in a few weeks.

Earlier, I enjoyed a tall stack of cinnamon raisin French toast and a golden delicious apple lunch. Then, I smoked a bowl of year 2020 Watch City Rouxgaroux in a smooth medium bend 2021 Peterson POTY Natural 4AB No. 6/500 military mount with a silver cap and a tapered black vulcanite AB stem. Had a great chat with a great friend. Abner the Eager was ready to eat, and afterward, he jumped on my lap for a snooze while I was on the phone. The other ferals are outside.


Currently, I just finished smoking Low Country Pee Dee in a medium bend fumed tan crackled year 2020 Ahmet Govem reverse calabash meerschaum with a military mount silver band and black acrylic stem. Still working on the review. Ice water and bergs is my drink.

Now smoking and reviewing Gladora Tobacco Pesse Canoe Latakia Flake 40 in a 1960s Austrian meerschaum bent apple with a tapered yellow stem. Weak, it ain't.

First taste of LJ Peretti Cambridge Flake in the Falcon snifter bowl



A user on another forum said that Tashkent was his previous favorite, but Cambridge Flake took that spot, so I wanted to see for myself. It’s a good English, but so far it hasn’t given me the same Wow! as Tashkent.

Hi Jim,
Do you smoke you pipes as you walk (lunting)? Also, what is your total number of cats? My wife is a huge cat person and I have mentioned Tomato the Brave and some of the others and she asked me how many in all. She has five, but none have the cool names that yours do. ha.

I do smoke when I walk. It's very relaxing.

We own two cats: Sleepy Suzy and Molly Danger.

There are four feral (community cats) that hang around a fair amount, but go elsewhere, wherever "elsewhere" is. Daisy the Feral Princess is the exception as she hardly leaves here any more.

Now smoking year 2012 St. James Flake in a straight smooth brown Algerian briar post-WW2-early 50s family era Barling’s Make Ye Olde Wood T.V.F. Made in England EL billiard with a tapered black ebonite stem. This pipe is from the estate of David Cuneo.

Oh, I thought Tomato the Brave is a feral cat?? I thought he was part of the inner circle.

That is truly a beautiful billiard. Wow. The grain and the finish.

Thanks!

Sutliff Stoved Virginia in my Celius Root Pawn. Normally this is a blending tobacco, but I love it on its own.
