    OMG I didn't think I had a pipe disorder until I counted the ones on my desk.....

    Out of 18, 1 has a round hole and one is missing the broken stem. [I remember now when I dropped it but can't find the stem.]

    The remaining 16 have square edges but two of them look like someone has modified them.

    I used to care about stuff like hand cut versus molded, but since getting old .... er ....... I don't. Same with bowls with putty fills. Was a deal breaker for me 20-30 years ago, but now I don't give a hoot. If it is a good smoke .......... that is all that matters to me now.

    This was my tonight. Sitting in the garden with the wife. Never had this tobacco before. Tasted good but took some relights.

    Smoked whilst burning junk mail.

    Been away for a bit taking care of my dad down in Florida (7-weeks). Just had a really nice bowl of Haunted Bookshop in a brown Castello Sea Rock 33 (aka the craggily old work pipe).

    I have three one pound containers of Haddo's Delight that I bought last September or October and are dated 04/15. Trying to decide if I should pop one or let them all reach their two year birthday before opening. Kind of sounds like a good way to bring fall in or maybe just have some Latakia tomorrow. Can't decide.

    I might open one only and let the others work awhile longer. No need to open all of them now ........

    apipeguy I agree with Jimmy. Haddo's Delight is just one great blend.

    We had a beautiful day here weather wise for a change and I enjoyed some Tsuge Ryugin in a Boswell.
