Thanks to everyone for the birthday wishes. It was a good one. Now smoking Old Joe Krantz in a University Deluxe Billiard. Black coffee with bergs, is my drink.

Again, Peterson Irish Flake, in a Johs freehand tomahawk with plateau on the brim and shank, a Christmas gift from my wife in 2010. I'm learning the gravity packing method that is working better than tamping, leaving some air in their for the burn. Irish Flake has been a real pleasure after having the tin around for several years; where has it been all my life? Thanks to members for getting me in step with this particular flake, and the force of gravity.
C&D Carolina Red Flake in a Savinelli Zulu
Last smokin of the day is Davidoff Flake Medallions in Savinelli Porto Cervo
Old Joe Krantz in a Peterson 2019 Summertime XL02.
About a quarter of a bowl left of Wilke No. 172 in a 1980 smooth medium brown Lorenzo Ambra 803 Oom Paul with a pearl colored acrylic saddle stem.
2007 Stonehaven in a Jack Howell Billiard.
Flying Dutchman in this little acorn cutty cob. Quite a decent smoker and comfortable resting in the hand.
I have been rather bogged down with endless legal sh*t and I have neglected my posting duties! I have a few open tobacco's to finish up so I thought I would kick my Sunday off with a bowl of XX Black Twist in a meerschaum 'cutty' whilst I answer a few emails from forum friends.
Dan you have got to slow down a bit lad. If you keep this speed smoking stuff up we will have to get you an asbestos cover for your tongue boy. You are meant to enjoy smoking a pipe as opposed to emulating a freight train!!
I wasn't speed smoking, 10-15 minutes is normal for me!
Good to hear from you again.
Not far from finishing this bowl of year 2016 D&R Three Sails in a smooth straight late 1970s Charatan Special 4148DC Reg. No. 203573 pot with a black double comfort vulcanite stem. Lunch is next! Ice water and bergs is my drink on this beautiful Fall day.
Smoking Match Hines Mixture in a bent basket pipe. Diet Coke is my drink as I enjoy the porch.
Nightcap in a Cob.
Been running in these two "refurbed" cobs today. The other..

Granger in a WWII era Kaywoodie. Kaywoodie stopped using stingers to save the metal for the war effort. It’s a push stem, four digit, clover on top of stem.
This pipe is a great smoker!!

I had so much Argentine Criollo twist I thought I'd experiment with it. We have a kumquat bush in the garden which gave lots of fruits this year. As they are very pungent I put some of the skin inside a tupperware along with some of the rubbed out twist and left it to infuse.
A few months later and it's tasting wonderful....a strong tobacco taste with a orange/citrus background. Smoking it in the Hardcastle's bullcap.
