Good morning gents.
Good day for a duck. Looks like the wet stuff will be sticking with us until at least tomorrow.
Up with the birds as usual. Got a good strong cup of coffee to fight the dampness. Loaded up some of the latest batch of cube mixture in a Scottie Bing. Funeral to go to today, so I guess the weather is fitting.
Enjoy your day gents.

Hey there folks, puffadder, sorry about your pipe, but yeah,. it totally seems like you got your money's worth. Now smoking some CC2010 in a Jan Pietenpauw cavalier. Stayed home from work today, not feeling great. Trying in vain to get some University work done. My college's website is down and I can't access the info I need. Nothing to do but watch TV or read, which suits me just fine. Have a good one.

Good morning all. puffadder , shame about the pipe, but good to know that it gave you plenty of years. justkyle2711 , sounds like an excuse to spend the day smoking and relaxing. Nothing wrong with that. Same old routine for me. Browsing the web, puffing on some SWR in an old Grabow. Folgers Black Silk keeping me warm.

Now smoking Kingfisher in a 1982 smooth straight Dunhill Root Briar 31051. Have enough for one more bowl. Lost power for a few minutes with the high winds and rain, and a couple tree limbs fell, too. The sun just came out, so I hope that's all done.

War Horse RC in a cob. I'm waiting on the Bar, but I like the effortless prep here. I buy about half of my brown rope sliced, too. Sometimes I'd just rather smoke than slice. WHRC is great as is!

Almost done smoking this bowl of my whole-leaf blend, WTF, in an MM Washington.
After several months in the jar, this blend has really calmed down and the flavors are more distinct and separable.

Orlik Golden Sliced in a French PoY reject of mine. This baccy is one of the most underrated ones out there, IMO.
