Janus in Peterson SH Watson. GEC77. Didn't feel like drying it as flake. Took the crumbs out of bottom of jar and dried for smoke. Strong tobacco. It was a good smoke.

I think I'm going to break a Don Carlos Fiammatta 3 note with McClelland nº27 to celebrate Villarreal winning the Uefa Europa Legue against Manchester United.

Preparing to smoke a bowl of bayou morning in a Savinelli. Like a child, the shipment arrived today so time to dig in.
Now smoking Hearth & Home Marquee Black House 10th Anniversary in a 2003 URAL full bend big bowl egg shaped Lattice meer with a black acrylic saddle stem. Hope to finish the review with this smoke.
This meer is the middle one on the right.

Funny, I was Googling around last month reading and looking on Barlings, I have zero, so maybe I better get one.
P.S. If Jim says it, I better do it! LOL ?
I repaired this Paykoc Meerschaum Bulldog pipe today. There are two mistakes, one made knowingly and one unknowingly). I am very happy with the results and the draw is better than earlier - Smoking some GL Pease Chelsea Morning from October 2011
Mistake one - I could not find a straight stem, so I chose a bent one. I quite like the eccentricity
Mistake 2 - I fitted a 15 mm stem to a 16 mm shank so there is some gap. (I measured 15 mm and ordered a 15 mm stem, either I was off by a mm, or seller sent me the wrong stem). This also adds to the character of the pipe.

Nothing until Sunday at the earliest!
A bit of a rough day with a friend in ill health and other matters, I’m trying to relax now with Solani Yellow Label in the Stanwell and then hopefully some sleep.
Storm brewin' on Atlantic - Completed a bowl of Warped: King's Stride in a Savinelli about an hour ago - Very interesting blend

The marriage of meerschaum and briar goes way back to at least the 1880s - from lining the bowls ...

A few bowls in today...just finished some Newminster 400 in a Meerschaum, moving onto some PS Luxury Navy Flake. Excited to have just booked a couple solo guitar gigs at some outdoor cigar lounge events over the summer ...finally a gig where I can smoke my pipe!
Sunset on a hot night along the Nature Coast, smoking some Seven Seas Royal in a Peterson 107 Aran,Blue Mitchell helping out.
A quarter of the way through this bowl of year 2014 Astley’s No. 44 in a smooth slight bend dark brown 1940s-1950s Comoy’s Blue Riband 228C prince with a tapered black vulcanite stem. This should get me to dinner time.
Cornell and Diehl Burley Flake #1 in a Brad Pohlmann.
