A third of the way through this bowl of year 2020 Peter Heinrichs Golden Sliced in a pre-1940s straight smooth brown Sutliff St. James (Comoy’s) spiral billiard with a tapered black vulcanite stem.
Its supposed to drop to 36 degrees fahrenheit tonight ... bowl of Lane 1-Q outside in the Barontini 1/2 spigot which is showing no signs of getting hot tonight ! Had to take in some plants as we're expecting first frost tonight (possibly).
Just finished the Savinelli Doblone d’Oro in the Walt Cannoy. Going to light up Esoterica Pembroke (2021) in a Savinelli de luxe Milano 320 KS Author. I’ve had my suspicions the stem is a replacement, as the button is thicker than is typical of a Savinelli, and there are some visible seams on the sides of the stem that are atypical, but, I like the overall look and it fits well enough—a Non Pareil stem would probably be more appropriate.
Kevin, IRC, sent me a blend to try with my last order. I've now added Reis Canadian Plug Mixture to my daqily rotation. Smoking it now and thoroughly enjoying it. It's a nicely blended combination of Burely, Virginia Flake and Black Cavendish.
Running my under warranty (yes!) AirPods to fedex to ship them away for repair or hopefully replacement.
It's freakin frigid out here.
