Good Saturday morning to all of the Patch, it's a cool, grey start here in the Irish North West, expecting it to fair up later, some yard work today I think. Going to kick the day off, with some 3 Nuns in the MM Apple Diplomat. Wishing you all a great day ahead!

G'morning, Jon. You know, I've never tried 3 Nuns. Hey Urb, good morning to ya, y'know, it's really not bad at all, has benefited from a few months in the jar, but it's a really decent smoke. Lots of flavour, no bite, nice enough kick to it. I'm definitely ordering more to cellar. The US version is meant to be even better? So it goes...

I do have some Three Friars, which was C&D's version of it when the original briefly went away.

A lot of guys swear there's a difference, cannot attest personally.

Are you working in the shop today or having a day off?

Good Saturday Morning! And a Good Morning to you, Urb and Jon. It's 60° and mostly cloudy here with more rain showers forecast for the day. This afternoon I'll drive up to Akron, leave the ol' 2000 Jeep with the dealer, and pick up the 2017 Nissan. With warm weather on the way, I'm looking forward to driving a car that has a/c. Starting off with a bowl of HH Pure VA Flake in the Amorelli smooth bent Three Star and there's a fresh travel mugga coffee tucked underneath my jacket. Enjoy the weekend everybody!

Happy Saturday! Started the day with a couple bowls of Haunted Bookshop in the Saturday cob and coffee on the front porch. It's 59, and overcast, with a little fog here. I'll be potting up some of the flowers today, and finish planting out the garden.

No smokes right now, but a lot of Zyn pouches lately. Out working on a new garden. I bought four cans of Zyn 3mg in citrus, cinnamon, wintergreen, and one of em a 6mg mint can maybe two weeks ago for the first time, and they’re all about halfway empty. There’s something nice about pure nicotine salt without any carcinogenicity. A worry-free pleasure.

Starting late, with Derby Club Aromatic in the Kristi freehand. The smell is mostly formaldehyde. If you had your dream pillow, you would wake up with a rash.

Just remember that new car smell is polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons.

Good afternoon folks. I’m smoking some older Old Gowrie in a 1952 Dunhill Shell Briar. This pipe is a delight to smoke, and seems to work well with the Old Gowrie. As you can see it’s another cloudy and drizzly day here in the Mid Atlantic. Chores are done so time to settle in with a pipe. Hope your weekend is going well!

While out and about for some groceries, I had some Friar's Bayou in the Saturday cob. Back on the front porch now, some Five o'clock Shadow in the barrel-shaped meerschaum.

Good Afternoon! It's 79° out here on the deck with a mix of blue sky, large white clouds, and sunshine. Finally getting a chance to relax after a busy day. Currently smoking a bowl of aged Limerick Flake in the MM Mark Twain cob while listening to streaming smooth jazz and there's a glass of cold water on the side. Have a great night everybody!
