Had a nice morning at the remembrance service but I didn’t get to have a natter with the old guys because I’m getting a chest infection and didn’t want to pass it on. Having ABF in a AOC Globe. View attachment 260767View attachment 260768

@Birddog66 Sent you a PM. Going to wrap your tobacco tonight; I'll get it off when I come back from Buxton Crescent next week. I've re-used an empty St Bruno pouch; going to take some other empty pipe baccy packets with me for my loose Gawith Hoggarth. Not much single use with the Clay King!

Apparently my reading retention is low. Since you said that in the second sentence of the op

 

[The Clay King]

Had a little clay of each of these. Just try to revisit. Honestly my dislike for these were from my bad technique. Probably won't be in heavy rotation though. I still do prefer a good VaPer or English.

@Tate RIP clay; sorry to hear about your loss:-( How did it get broken?
I've lost count of how many clays I've broken...

Peterson MM965 in a Mastro de Paja bent billiard.

Nice retrieving session earlier - the low key approach has worked wonderfully and she’s now nuts about retrieving (and she should be, lol, but didn’t overdo when she was little-er). So I haven’t messed her up yet, haha. Peterson 125th B42 and Yorktown on the deck - what a super November day!

Peterson Flake in a 60s Dunhill billiard.

I’ve tried the French vanilla one before not bad but they are wayyyyy better tobaccos imo

Literally every other tobacco I have is wayyyyyy better lol. Definitely not suggesting these. Lol.

@Tate I broke one here last January: The Red Cow, Nantwich | Welcome - http://redcownantwich.co.uk/
It got broken while tapping the ash out; fortunately one of the Sealed Knot re-enactors showed me how to tap the ash out of a clay pipe without it breaking, by GENTLY tapping the pipe against the back of your hand.
Sorry to hear of your loss:-( Maybe you could bury it in the garden for someone in the future to dig up

Favorite part of getting colder is pretending it isn’t Next up, Paradoxical in a Herbaugh Cutty.

 

[Tbaggins]

Opening a tin of sams flake from April of last year. I foil taped my SG tins then threw them in Mylar bags. Tobacco is still moist so I guess it’s working alright. I have some older stock I did the same with I’ll check soon.
