Thank you, Gord! Picked it up a couple years ago, and the first unsmoked/new meer I acquired. Was on the shelf in my old local B&M for more than 12 years...!Not seen too many bent meers, especially with a fetching stem like that! Works for sure. Envious, of course.![]()
Awesome! I'm really glad the weather held up and you were able to get out! Also, beautiful pipe, I can definitely see why you couldn't wait to load it up!Nice ride through the local country backroads and a quick trip into town on the way today. (Thanks @tubbyninja1337 for the inspiration to charge her up and pull her out!) When i arrived home i found a box on the porch that i wasn't expecting till Monday. Behold...
...a new Bonfiglioli.

Of course i have no patience, so - before i even take my boots off - this one is filled for it's virgin smoke.
Figured it's been a while since i've dug to the back of the shelves. Thus, Kingfisher will be the one to greet the newb to the stable.

Thank you @Chasing Embers for your input on cleaning the inside of stems, lemon juice and toothpaste did the trick. After 44 years of pipe smoking there is always something new to learn.Counting the lines in the acoustic dampening on my ceiling and smoking Sutliff Black Cordial.

Enjoy the festivities @dino, Happy Birthday!I smoked the Peterson Sherlock Holmes "Hudson" pipe I bought for my 70th. birthday, nine years ago, and shared my birthday celebration today with my ZOOM buddies. I had a bowl of (you guessed it) Samovar. A mug of Jack Daniel's Tennesse Whisky Coffee was my beverage.
Now I'm off for a dinner with my family.
