Chelsea Morning again in a straight, smooth Stanwell Sterling billiard #52. Meant to have a Balkan or Va-based blend on hand, but messed up my grabs as I ran out of the house this morning so got to go with what's in my bag. Ho hum.

Sam Gawith FBVF plug again, this time as the virgin bowl in a Northern Briar Rox Cut Premier Dunlin with silver Celtic Band. I prefer to break in two pipes at a time - the other here is the Genod billiard - as it keeps me interested. This is simply one of the best pipes I have ever smoked. The stem is perfect, with circumference at the band and width at the button and marvellous, soft comfort in the mouth. My pipe is this one with a black stem:
