Love this pipe and it always makes me think of Dr. Who's Cybermen!

Relaxing after a wonderful salad, chicken legs and green beans dinner with strawberries for dessert. I'm passing the first third of this bowl of aged Rattrays Hal O’ The Wynd in a straight smooth brown pre-WWII (Comoy’s) Corinthian De-Luxe 126 pot made for Sutliff in San Francisco with a black tapered vulcanite stem. Community Coffee, neat, is my drink.
Post huge carne asada dinner on deck watching hockey and smoking Autumn Evening in a Bullfrog Gumnut. Doesn’t get better than this.

That's some line-up! Leggy as a chorus line.
Simply extraordinary!
I finished smoking the Ropp—I got a little over three hours and ten minutes out of it and we’re now into the regular Prelims—the Main Card starts shortly, in less than half an hour. As I’ve mentioned previously, the UFC mixed martial arts matches take place in an octagon shaped ring. That makes the Savinelli Ottagono Due a thematically perfect pipe to smoke when watching UFC fights. Our friend, John, was born in 1976 and I was born in 1963. As luck would have it, Smoking Pipes had numbers 76/600 and 63/600 available for sale and I was able to snag both when the pipes first dropped. We gave John his pipe for his birthday to him in September.
I’m having Savinelli Brunello Flake in my Savinelli Ottagono Due Sandblasted, Eight-sided, Paneled Dublin (number 63/600). John is also going to have Brunello Flake in his Ottagono Due (number 76/600) while we watch the UFC regular Prelims.

The next pipe in the lineup is a cased 1914 Barling straight billiard with army mount amber stem with an orific bit
A bowl of STG produced Peterson De Luxe Navy Rolls, the stablemate to the previous Escudo.
The Peterson rolls have a circumferential circlet of bright leaf in contrast to the uniform discs of Escudo
Such a warm day.
A tall drink of Campari with lots of ice, slice of Tahitian lime and topped with FeverTree pink grapefruit tonic

I could not remember what that wind cap reminded me of to save my life, but I knew I saw it somewhere else.
Bayou Morning in a MM Dagner Poker.
That is one freaking cool piece of briar.
First try of GLP geometrie in a Mastro De Paja apple. I must say it smelled good in the tin and smokes wonderfully.
I’ve been smoking the triple maduro, corojo, and equadors, I need to try the broadleaf. So far my fav is the triple maduros but I like all I’ve tried.And now, cigar time. Camacho Broadleaf, with book and brandy. I aspire to someday rock the stogie pics like hoosierguy, but not today

Rouxgaroux in the Marxman Benchmade. I think it's a Dublin shape.
The previous Barling duo are smallish Group 3-4 pipes
The 3rd was made towards the latter part of WW I
A 1918 Civic bent billiard, vulcanite tapered stem with a very graceful bowl-shank transition
A bowl of MacBaren’s HH Arcadian Perique

Now having C&D Virginia Flake in the MM Morgan. Ahh.
Does the Morgan have a filter? How are you liking it? Want to get a cob but there are a bunch lol
Mac Baren’s Scottish Mixture in a cob.
We’re into the Main Card of UFC 295 now. I’m having Seattle Pipe Club Plum Pudding Bourbon Barrel Aged in a Briar, Sweat, and Tears (BST) Large Curve (LC) 3/4 Bent Billiard, which is becoming one of my “go to” pipes for smoking while watching UFC fights given its long smoking time (I might get a three or four plus hour smoke out of this based on its track record thus far).
