Couldn't sleep so up early and starting a bowl of Haunted Bookshop Cake in a Pete SPD 2011 69. 
I probably need to clarify that my bowl cleaning isn’t really cleaning in terms of removing cake; it’s just lightly turning a paper towel to loosen dottle. Ideally, I hardly ever CLEAN clean any pipe bowl unless something’s gone wrong.
My Dark Sails mix in one of three Lee 3Star saddle stem pears I got from @Briar Lee a couple years ago.
Running a couple late errands.

Earlier, I smoked a bowl of year 2014 Dan Tobacco Hamborger Veermaster in a smooth straight brown 1950 Dunhill 48 bulldog group 4 root briar with a black vulcanite fish tail saddle stem.
Currently, I'm near the finish of this year 2012 Dan Tobacco Treasures of Ireland: Limerick in a 2021 medium bend black sandblasted Peterson Newgrange 80S bent bulldog silver spigot with a tapered reddish brown, black striped acrylic stem.
Another photo of Ringo the birthday boy.
Here's Ringo's brothers Archie and Billy.

Tinsky's bent bulldogs are some of the few bulldogs that I really like, and I absolutely adore them! I just haven't gotten one of my own yet haha! Lovely pipe.
Thank you! It really smokes good as well.
Over the last couple of weeks I've been going through my deep storage of jars. Tonight I cracked open a jar of Nat Sherman 536 Empire English from 2019, smoked in a Savinelli Dry System 613 smooth bent billiard. Rich, creamy and smooth smoke, spicy, fruity and bready. Everything about it seems to have improved with age.
Just finished smoking a bowl of year 2021 KBV Your Welcome in a straight smooth dark brown 1930s (Comoy’s) Canadian Club 230 eight paneled billiard with a tapered black vulcanite stem. Ice water and bergs is my drink.
Oh heck... I mean, why shouldn't I smoke this monster? Haha! Black House about to go into a claw holding an egg hatching a baby dragon meer. Yanik! 
Incredible
That's a great one we don't see much. I have a single tin left from the period after Nat, before its total demise, when labeled Metropolitan 536.
Smoking through some Scottish Cake gifted by @Ted Vig after pipe club tonight, in an old Nording
Did some low calorie snacking, and am close to finishing this bowl of year 2020 Mac Baren Scottish Mixture in a straight, smooth brown 1960s Lane era Charatan Special 38 bulldog with a black vulcanite saddle stem.
Just finished smoking year 2016 D&R Two Timer Gold in a smooth straight late 1970s Charatan Special 4148DC Reg. No. 203573 pot with a black double comfort vulcanite stem. Fed everybody but Abner the Eager.
Now smoking Wilke No. 515 Double Shot in a smooth dark medium bend 2021 Peterson Heritage Brown POTY 4AB No. 45/500 military mount with a silver cap and a tapered black vulcanite AB stem. This is No. 515 with twice the rum of the Basil Rathbone blend. Have enough left for a bowl of so.
Had a bowl of Plum Pudding in my Paykok Sherlock. I won't be smoking PP with this pipe again, the bowl is tapering and that makes kakes in general more difficult but PP is so chunky even when rubbed out it doesn't fit well especially as it expands from charring. No big deal, it smokes ready rubbed wonderfully and does a good job with cube cut flakes. Next time I want PP I'll smoke it one of my English dedicated briars.
First year introduced, 2018 Mac Baren Balkan. It is superb.
