Just passing the quarter mark on this bowl of Mac Baren Scottish Mixture in a straight, smooth brown 1960s Lane era Charatan Special 38 bulldog with a black vulcanite saddle stem.
SG Squadron Leader in a Ropp straight taper stemmed billiard that is a little rounded like an apple, in deep red stain with a "hand cut" stem in raspberry with two silver colored bands.
Have to watch a Zoom call I missed (I believe this is somewhere in an updated version of Dante's circles of Hell) so am taking the opportunity to have a pipe: Capstan Blue in a House Pipe (which will need cleaning after this smoke; I may never buy a bent pipe again).
Did another set of walking reps in this sweltering heat, and am close to finishing this bowl of unreleased Sutliff VaPer in a 1970's straight rusticated black Savinelli Estella 915 KS dublin with a flared top and pearl brown acrylic saddle stem. Ice water and bergs and plenty of it is my drink.
Almost half way through this bowl of year 2013 Rotary Navy Cut in a post-1938 Pre-Republic Peterson Dublin straight smooth X155 bulldog with a sterling silver band and a tapered black vulcanite p-lip stem. Nigel Bruce smoked this model in two Sherlock Holmes movies. Please consider asking Smoking Pipes to bring back this model.
Watch City Rhythm and Blues in an Altinay translucent meerschaum billiard. This is the 25th smoke and here is the picture.
The stummel has picked up some color though hard to see in the photo, except in spots. There is a mottled look. There were some surface defects which are looking somewhat prominent
