HH navy flake in a cob which makes me drool. First time smoking flakes, slooooowwwwww burning, ripped one flake in 3 strips and dried it overnight. Wonder how long fold and stuff would take me.

Now smoking Wilke Beta Test #4XYZ in a 1980s black sandblasted slight bend Savory’s Argyll 281 Cherrywood with a black vulcanite tapered stem. Ice water and bergs is my drink. Working and listening to Escape on the XM.
Samuel Gawith Cabbies Mixture / Best Brown Twist in a Butz Choquin. 
Last smoke of the day is the last of this tin of Cobblestone Whiskey in a 1979 medium bend etch relief meerschaum lined TinderBox Arabesque with a black vulcanite saddle stem. Relaxing and listening to William Conrad in Gunsmoke.
Good morning folks, Classic flake in a Blakemar.
First smoke this morning is Irish Dew in a cob,another hot one expected today,if this keeps up it will be 110 by June!
Walking in the forest in spring is fantastic, 19 degrees and a sunny day here in the Balearics, now time to relax, Condor RR on an old Stanwell and work a bit on my model ship project.
@redz Nice clay; remember not to clench so you don't get pipe notches in your teeth!Smoking some "Virginia Bright" blend on the way to work.View attachment 72309
Morning chaps, I started with some HU Dockworker in my little Yello Bole and now having some Reunion No27 Perique Flake in Christine. I don’t like to describe anything I own as dainty but here’s my 1939-49 Yello Bole next to my Donegal Rocky Bulldog. I must say however it’s a lovely little smoker. 
I’m having some C&D Yorktown in a bent Meer lined Lacroix 2
️ at the mo, strangely enough for a straight Va I’m not getting any bite and I’m finding it far more complex than any other Va I’ve had so far. That could just be the lack of bite allowing me to get more out of the tobacco.

Carter Hall in a Sasieni Perfect Ten Canadian
Half way through this bowl of circa year 2000 Edward G. Robinson's Pipe Blend in a 2014 Basil Meadows smooth slight bend squashed tomato with an aluminum band and a black pearl acrylic stem in the military mount style.
I’m really getting my smoke on today, Kendal Exclusiv Black Cherry (the only tobacco I smoked for years) in the Ornsby Pipe. I don’t revisit this tobacco as much as I used to but it really is a perfect smoke, smooth, natural, not sweet or sticky and burns very dry for an American style Aromatic. If you’re a fan of Black Cherry blends I can’t recommend this enough but make sure you get the Kendal “Exclusiv” variety, there’s a big difference. I’m about done with this and I just have a nice dry ash at the bottom of the bowl. 
A quarter of the way through this bowl of Wilke No. 78 in a smooth straight 1949 Yellow Bowl Century Model Lovat with a nickel band accent on the black vulcanite saddle stem.
Got a sample of Vauen Virginia Flake. The vessel of degustation is a Castello KKK Sea Rock.
I’m looking at the devastation caused by the tornado in Alabama, I hope everyone here is safe and well and avoided any damage. I know several members are residents there.
Having some Jamaican Flake in a Rocky Bulldog with my second cup of coffee before I head to the shops.

@Birddog66 I like the Black Cherry but the Cherry Vanilla is my favourite. My most memorable pipe smoking experience was while watching the Lace Wars re-enactment at Cromford Mill in 2019, almost a year ago, with a clay pipe of Gawith Hoggarth Cherry Vanilla!
A lovely morning out on the deck. Continuing the 40th bday weekend with a newly cracked jar of 2004 Gawith Hoggarth Dark Flake unscented in a GBD Conquest Pedigree that I bought at my first pipe show (Richmond CORPS) back in 2009. This blend has aged to perfection, and is nicely complimented with Bolivian coffee from the French press.
