This place is enabling. Many times what I intend to be a quick perusal here becomes another bowl for the day.
Today, I thought I would cut down a little. I have been hitting it hard because of the nice weather and how much I like Billy Budd Blonde. So I put my smoking stuff away and fully resolved to take the rest of the day off from smoking.
After a quick look here - I am filling the room with the blue reek of War Horse, in beautifully grained Stanwell Majestic 63 I have smoked for years.

2-5 for me.
My weekday ritual is 1 when I get home from work and watering the garden. And then one after dinner before I head to bed. On the weekends it depends on what I have planned, but I tend to stay busy so its 3-4.

2-3 on workdays, not much on the weekends, as the wife cannot be around smoke.

Its a little bit like driving home from a great Thanksgiving dinner at your brothers house, confident you won't be able to eat for like a week, and seeing a billboard for a Big Mac at the next exit... lol

Well, I'm not sure I can relate to that analogy. When I have a decent meal, I can't even think about food for hours, and advertisements for food then turn me off; and i love good food. However, when I finish a decent pipe smoke, I can quite happily light another, and often do.  |

Maybe he hasn't voted because there was no "continuously " option? I usually pause for five seconds between smokes. |

Six months or a year ago I was a one a day smoker. Usually in the evening. Maybe two on Saturday. This site and my exploration of different brands, as I voted. Now I am going crazy. Ahhh you are right. Why fight it.  |

I chose 1 a day because you specified 'average' i don't get to smoke every day. when i do get the opportunity i usually go hog-wild and smoke several bowls. if i get to stay at home all day long and sit outside i can get in about 8 bowls, but then i might not get the opportunity again for a week. i average about 5 bowls on Tuesdays when i get to the smoking lounge. if i get to sit outside in the morning or the evening, it's about three bowls each time, but at most that happens three times a week.

I have become reliably two bowls a day. One at lunch time, and one in the evening while I do the briarpatch chat.
Sometimes i will also have one after dinner.

I see there's no votes for "greater than 10". JimInks must not have voted yet.  Ha. It was him who came to mind when I added that option. He was monitored one month and he had smoked 410 times. That's 13-14 bowls a day. And he hasn't slowed down. |

I'm impressed. Choo Choo. That's what happened. I believe the guy who did the numbers has gone to the great hereafter. He broke it down to aros, vapers, English, etc. He usually goes through 3 bowls per phone conversation. |
