Smoking some Atlas Balkan now, with a bowl of Bow-Legged Bear ready to bat cleanup.
Enjoyed a tasty Jazz apple, and am now smoking D&R VIP in a 2004 smooth long shank Trever Talbot Ligne Bretagne Faite en Bretagne 4/3 lumberman with a black vulcanite tapered stem.
Bengal Slices in a Peterson Standard System 307
Five Brothers in a small smooth straight dublin with saddle stem
Snacked a little, and am part way through this bowl of year 2008 Dunhill 965 in an undated unbranded straight black sandblasted short shank billiard with a long black vulcanite tapered stem. Working and listening to Suspense on the XM.
Last smoke before bed! Is my first taste of GLP Gaslight. Seems quite promising. I will continue familiarizing myself with it tomorrow.
I was in the mood for a big bowl, so I picked my Schrauf's pipe which is (together with the MM corn cob General) the largest I have. Schrauf is the name of a tobacco & pipes shop in the beautiful city of Nuremberg, in Bavaria, south Germany. You can find there tobacco products and accessories from different vendors, own house blends and also house pipes. They are made of briar, big sized, sold at -very- affordable prices and they are unfinished / unpainted. The smoker decides whether he will leave them as they are and let them darken naturally through time or he will apply some kind of paint or oil on them. I chose the second and used (what else?) olive oil.
So, I have loaded it with a generous quantity of John Aylesbury mixture 777, and enjoying it together with a double dose of Greek/Turkish coffee, a special blend with spices in it.
To me personally, when I smoke my pipe, usually twice per day, one in the morning and one in the evening, it is more than something that gives me a feeling of satisfaction, it is closer to... happiness. Yes, I am happy when I smoke my pipe.
Nice weekend and good heart to all the good people.

Not far from finishing this bowl of G&H Kendall Kentucky in a medium bend egg 2017 Royal Meerschaum Dragon meer with a black and cream swirl amber colored acrylic tapered stem.
Good morning All
A raw but dry start to the day here in the Scottish Borders. First bowl is Samuel Gawith’s Squadron Leader in a Blakemar Briars’s Sir Douglas. Next will be either a Matador Billiard with a half bowl of Orlik Golden Sliced or a Matador Moffat with Cabbies Mixture.
Have a day!
Happy smokes.

Gold Block in a Peterson 9mm billiard. 
Just finished smoking Peretti Cuban Mixture in a smooth, brown straight pre-transition Barling 313 T.V.F. EXEXEL pot with a black ebonite saddle stem.
Last smoke of the day is 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.
good day all, coffee and some Brown Twist X by G&H in a Salvatella
Good morning. Grousemoor Plug in a Falcon.
Good morning folks, Zulu in a Mr. Brog.
Good morning smoke of Amphora Original Blend in a Peterson XL02 with coffee,have a good weekend everyone!
Just had a bowl of HU Dockworker.Had some luck in acquiring a few tins of this burley forward blend, its becoming a firm favourite.Smoked it in my Savinelli punto Ora 207 I got this estate pipe from SP it had a terrible replacement stem on it.So I asked Mike at Blakemar pipes to make me a new stem and drill it to take a 6mm filter.He did a great job as always.
I just got this odd little fellow in the mail. Never seen one quite like it, no markings anywhere either. I’m gonna try and research it later but first I’m gonna run some 3P’s through it and see how it smokes. Doesn’t look as if it’s seen more than a couple of bowls.
