***What Are You Smoking, October 2024?***

[Roach1]

Finally recovered from a foodbone illness. The first smoke of the month is some Makhuwa plus lat in a Kai Nielsen brandy. Some coffee on the side and lit with the 70's Dupont that I finally got working right. I had to take a dremmel to the asian pipe nozzle to get a proper fit.

Clan in a clay. Got some GH Coniston Cut Plug / Kentucky Nougat & Sharrow Majestic / Superior in Buxton; 4 packets re-used. All suited to the King's Clay!
3 bags of rubbish & 4 vapes today; good to meet Anthony again. Just the 2 of us. Bought my zero waste groceries / toiletries; Sara will be delivering them this evening. Another 4 containers re-used! Got bought a hot chocolate today as well.
Looking forward to Nottingham Pipe Show; going to save my pipe baccy packets for any samples or gifted pipeweed. Not much single use with me!

Over the hump, Chenet’s cake in an Ilsted, I got this Ilsted for only a somewhat unaffordable price because it was so “well-loved”, it smokes terrific. If this pipe had been pristine it would have been way out of my price range, glad to have it. I became interested in having one of his when I first learned he taught Manduela. You’ll see the similarities in his bulldogs. His pipes are generally way bigger than hers though.

Early morning sky here in the Purcell Mountains and I am smoking Hh BF in a 1957 252 shell briar billiard while sipping some coffee.

 

[MattRVA]

Haunted Bookshop and Old Joe Krantz 50/50 with eight o’clock coffee. Both of these blends are pale comparisons to what they were in 2019 maybe age will help but they’re not as good.
