***What Are You Smoking, May 2023?***

[bobpnm]

Good Saturday morning all. I'm up way too early again for Premier League footie and also to celebrate the 62nd edition of my birthday. It's starting the smoking day with my unfinished Savinelli Roma 644 filled with Eight State Burley. As it is my birthday I will share some of the soundtrack to the day as I share my smokes on the thread.

Congratulations on 62 trips around the sun! May your 63rd trip be the best yet!

Passing the first third of this bowl of KBV Mr. Christian’s Kraken Plug 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. If you’re interested in getting one, please contact Smoking Pipes and ask them to put this model back into production.

If yours has a number on it. check the Comoy's number chart. I would like to see all the stamping on the pipe if you wouldn't mind doing that.

I don’t see any #s

Watching UFC and mostly enjoying it, but feeling very down about the death of Martin Amis, whom I first met about thirty four years ago. I will miss him and his writing.

About to light up Esoterica Tilbury (2021) in a Savinelli Autograph Author (4 grade).

Ah yes I adore Cheikh Lo. Congolese music is a delight s well. I'm sure it's been nerve-wracking supporting Wolves this season.
Thanks for the birthday wishes.

My wife and I saw Papa Wemba live in Kinshasa! Amazing.

Ok. Guess I'll be the sucker who asks. What are you making the tiny skulls FOR?

It's not a Comoy's second. It was made by Viggo Nielsen.

Capstan Blue flake in a clay. Nice, quiet walk with my dog. More rain was forecast, but hasn't arrived yet.

It was a lovely, warm afternoon, just right for a short smoke.
I stuffed my old Markus Fohr clay with Orlik Golden Sliced and sat in my patio rocker as I smoked, watching my pup and my daughter’s and son-in-law’s two new pups, a Shepherd/Hound mix, and a German Shepherd the size of a Buick, romp around the back yard. My 13-year-old Puggat keeps the two “toddlers” in line.
I sipped a dram of The Macallan 12 as I enjoyed the idyllic scene.
