    I made a guess it was something like that. The last lot of shirts I had of that style work my security issue uniform. I've kept them after handing in the uniform badges (well most of the badges anyway. I have a few souvenired patches/badges of course.) Like hens teeth to find a quality shirt like those in regular shops. I will have to get down to a work wear uniform shop at some point though. They would be the best bet for replacing my old shirts. However, I'm waylaying the thread here. Best get back to regular programming I think.

    Tonight im trying something new in my Savinelli Billiard. G.L. Pease Union Square a flake Virginia blend sweet and complex it came out of the tin in dense Darkish flakes that seemed almost tarry with moisture. I had my doubts this would burn well but thanks to a quick youtube lesson on how to pack it, the smoke went really well. The pipe burned a bit hot almost coal like and it just wouldnt go out quite unexpected and amazing smoke.

    Spent a good portion of Sunday smoking ribs for a bunch of old friends getting together. After a supper of Smoked ribs, brats, burgers, fried chicken, mashed potatoes, potato salad, Caesar salad, two kinds of pie and a wide variety of beer. Afterward a good few of us retreated to the patio to puff merrily on our pipes and cigars. Did the ribs puffing on squadron leader and dessert of 965.

    Just curious if you've had any better luck with your pipes and tobacco.

    It's obviously not a just bought pipe. How long have you had that one Steph. I don't think I've seen it posted before?! Or has Old Timers struck again?! Very Hobbitish anyway. I like it. I might have to bust out my Pete Churchy again too. It's been a while since I used it.
