***What Are You Smoking, September, 2023?***

[JimInks]

Couldn't sleep, so I'm up and am a quarter of the way through this bowl of early 2000s Edward G. Robinson's Pipe Blend in a 2014 Basil Meadows smooth slight bend squashed tomato with an aluminum band and a black pearl acrylic stem in the military mount style.

 

[Christos D. Tsatsaronis]

Whoa, what a beautiful, unique rustication! I love the shape and the stem too. Who made it? Is it possible to buy it somewhere?

Maker's name is Tolis Vasiliou.
But this one was made exclusively for members of the Club and year 2023.

You will like it...

I have this blend overhere in my 'cellar' from different decades and it is just one fine mixture over the years. I have even reserved an old meerschaum pipe just for that.

A quarter of the way through this bowl of year 2007 Astley’s No. 109 in a straight smooth brown circa 1950s-60s BBB Contrast 506 Canadian with a tapered black vulcanite stem. Going to the studio to work for a bit.

Condor green in a vintage clay; in memory of Weezell & tribute to Mum's Grandad; he used to smoke Condor Ready Rubbed. Had a Condor moment in the churchyard; this one's for @condorlover1

Good morning, Wilke Rumcake in a GBD.

 

[EA/DC]

War Horse Green from 2018. In the small meer chimney pipe that seems to have been made for it. I have enjoyed the smell of it in the past 24 hours... time to set fire to it now.

I like to use it to beef up other blends, on its own, it’s too much for me. If I have to function.

FYI, SPC Cobblestone sale currently. This wasn’t John Cottom, it was Cobblestone, similar to the John Cotton Burley.

I have been absent for a few days beavering through endless cr*p at the office. Today I opened a pouch of Mick McQuaid from the late 1990s early 2000 and was pleasantly surprised to find the plug was in pretty good condition without need of rehydration. I am using this run of the mill meerschaum 'cutty' which is slowly turning a delightful sh*t color whilst I catch up on some more chores.
