Good morning everyone, it’s sunny here for a change and I’m about to walk WeeBay with some Nebari in the little Clap nose warmer. I started the day with Wessex BS in a Kaywoodie small billiard and the usual coffee.
In the summer I found three baby hedgehogs in the back garden during the afternoon, being nocturnal they only come out during the day if they’re starving and I had found a dead adult in the alley that someone had trodden on. I presumed it to be their mother so called in the local wildlife refuge to pick them up.
They brought back two of them last night and I had made a insulated box for them and placed it in a discreet corner of the garden where they should be safe. I’ve ordered a big bag of hedgehog food from eBay so hopefully they’ll put on enough weight to last them through hibernation. The third is being brought back later this week and I’ll try to remember to take a picture this time.

@Birddog66 Not yet, I've seen a clay pipe identification guide online and in my Clay Tobacco Pipes book I got in Nottingham; I know the shape & size of the bowls can often be used to date clays!
@samuelgawith01 I love that pipe & great tobacco choice (or should I say dragonweed
). The Clay King enjoyed his clay bowl of 1792 Flake at Nottingham Pipe Show last month! I think Gawith tobacco is VERY well suited to clay pipes; good to know we're both keeping history alive by smoking it in our clays. Going to get some loose Gawith Hoggarth when I go to Buxton; taking some empty pipe baccy packets & my leather tobacco pouch that was a birthday gift from @Birddog66 - not much single use with me!
I thank his Majesty for his kind words,and I wish his Majesty luck on his trip to Buxton.@samuelgawith01 I love that pipe & great tobacco choice (or should I say dragonweed
Having a bowl from my odds and ends aromatic tin, I have absolutely no idea what I put in here and haven’t smoked it in a while but it’s actually pretty damn good and would fly off the shelves if it was a marketed blend. Notes of coffee, chocolate, a little cigar and I must have put some VaPer in there too because it’s a little spicy. I think I’ll smoke this more often. Having it in the Kaywoodie pot from the MG set. 
Meh, ODF in a Manz on a Mundane Monday. 
How do you like the tobacco?
Already smoked some HU Louisana Broken Flake in a Neerup Structure. Getting ready to sample HU Zulu Blend in a Ser Jacopo.
Good morning everyone. A little change of scenery. Enjoying some WCC Glass slipper in a Dunhill.

Good day all! Starting by finishing a tin of GLP Navigator in a small Upshall sandblast Bulldog with smooth rim and hex shank with matching saddle stem size 4.
