Nice pics, Thomas!

But do not even imagine on eating that mushroom. Also smoking it might be a bad idea. But if still decide to do such things, please leave your guns into safe locker before that

Only joking!

I was thinking that guns and redcap mushrooms wouldn't be a good mix...

Thomas, why did you shoot at the mushroom?

You almost killed him.
There is a trace on the cap.

Thomas,

What do you think about Old Ironsides? I've been thinking about getting myself a tin or two. I'd like to hear an opinion from some trustworthy gentleman first. Enough vitamin N? Enough or not enough Latakia? Could be more?

First time i read about Old Ironsides was from the pages of Nordisk Tobakskollegium. Someone mentioned it but there was no pic of the tin so i had to laugh a little. I thought that it is a revenge of the Irishmen. Better late than ever.
As usual, i was wrong.

Let me explain: As we all remember from school (at least we should remember) that Old Ironsides wasn't just a certain ship that served at War of American Independence. Also well known English gentleman Oliver Cromwell (at 1600 - something) was known as Old Ironsides.
He was a statesman, puritanist and a military leader. Whenever this merry fellow had time from other important duties, he spent it wisely by slaughtering Irish, Scotch as well as English people, his own countrymen. He also sent thousands of Irish people into slavery. Very fine gentleman, indeed, but not someone i would like to call my friend.
And what's worst: he prohibited tobacco growing in England. Obviously he must have been one of the first nanny-state politicians ever.
So when i heard about this blend i thought it was a sweet irony to name a tobacco after famous anti-tobaccionist. Revenge of the Irish. Now they finally got it. Had i seen the pic of the tin i would have known that it was about a ship. Oliver doesn't have to turn in his grave.
