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

Just finished smoking Wilke High Hat in an undated black sandblasted straight made in France Silvermatch Canadian with a tapered black vulcanite stem.

Now smoking Wilke Surbrug’s Golden Sceptre in a late 40s, early 50s straight black sandblasted Wagner British Thorn 495 (Comoy’s second) pot with a black vulcanite saddle stem. Listening to The Jack Benny Program on the XM.

Since my early April tooth extraction I've stayed away from this sub forum - just too jealous! So for me it is still "what are you not smoking", lol.

The past few days I've been spending time working on a seriously hopeless looking estate (should have got more before pics, but the stem is in a thread I started a few days ago - looked absolutely hopeless to me, and the rim/chamber looked downright scary). Lots of good help from members and have restored my first pipe!

So today I am not smoking this little Stanwell 50 "Hunter"! But I guarantee I will be smoking it when the leaves are thinking about turning and my faithful setter has pointed the first pheasant of the season this fall.

I can tell you tooth extraction and smoking don’t go well together. Good time to stop for a certain time.

Half way through this bowl of year 2014 Edgeworth Ready Rubbed Match in a late '80s, early 90s small bend medium brown smooth, unbranded Nording pot with a couple small rusticated spots, an amber colored acrylic ferrule and tapered stem in the military mount style. Still have things to do.

I always enjoy seeing your morning posts.

If I ever fall behind in following the WAYS thread, I know it's a morning when I see your post, just like it's midday when we see @JimInks post the squashed tomato pipe with EGR by its side.

Thanks for the consistency, gents. Some of us need it in life.

WCC 558 in my new to me Refbjerg Dublin which I love. It’s like the cob lover’s briar; it’s light, it’s small, and it smokes wonderfully.
