Enjoyed a bowl of 1820 original on the porch in a Dunhill Cumberland apple. It’s gotten a bit better than the first bowl but it’s still a long way from Margate or Pembroke

This morning I started with Marlin Flake, in a Grabow freehand. Blissfully bliss.
I hate the 6mm paper, and balsa wood filters. So, I ripped open a dental cotton role. Removed a 2mm thick bundle of cotton, rolled it to fit the diameter. It worked like a dream. I find that since it's made for absorption, it not only absorbs liquids, but it trapped so much tar it scared me afterwards seeing it. So much harshness is removed that the flavors are more noticeable, and not diluted with harsh ash, or tar. Then I grabbed my trusty old Luca Vanetti and packed McConnell Scottish Cake. Tonight, it'll be probably 2 more bowls, have not decided what.

Learning to appreciate Virginias with John Cotton's Double Pressed Virginia in a "Luxor" (Chacom second) Canadian. Sipping V8 blueberry/pomagranit juice cut with water.

Some amazing rose geranium concoction with the last of my twist supply in a six inch meerschaum 'cutty' since I am marooned in Florida and left a Bee Hive of black twist behind before boarding the train down south! I have loads of Grasmere Flake to keep me going until my return so no reason to panic about my well being!
Was it the GH RG Plug that Glyn had a few years ago? God, that was maybe the best stuff I ever smoked.
