Thread: Pipe of the Day

Nice mate, but are you allowed to smoke your pipe in it? Or is it to keep that new car smell for as long as possible? Personally, if I was to get my dream car (A landcruiser tray back that has been compromised to a 'Troopy' due to children) I would baptise it by sitting in it and having a beer and a smoking my pipe .
Maybe have the kids sling handfuls of mud at it from the outside while I watched from behind manually hand cranked, wind up windows. My only additional extra, the air con, blowing fit to bust. Just to make sure I get the long lasting freshness of Borkumm Riff Cherry Cavendish right into the vinyl upholstery .

Just finished Thanksgiving dinner #2, washed down with a pumpkin ale or two. A slight drizzle outside with temps dropping down to 3C.
Sounds to me like a perfect night for some Howl 'o the Wind in a Dunhill.
Best to all and a happy turkey day to my Canadian brethren...

Just cracked a tin of Squadron Leader. Enjoying it in it's Autograph 4.

A Jeep needs no wash, Mick!If you can identify the color of a Jeep...a Jeep is clean.
And I am allowed to smoke inside. I realized, Jeeps will be send to Germany without the "Trail-Rated"-badge. So at first I asked the friends in Jeep Wrangler Forum - Jeep Wrangler Owners Community and got an answer just in time. I'll get original badges.

Couldn't resist any longer. I had to crack a tin of Opening Night. Enjoying a bowl in it's rustic Autograph 4. I do love this VA.

This weekend I went home for the first time in around 4 months and got to do something I feel is very special. I was able to, for the first time, share a nice pipe with my dad and grown cousin. We went shooting as I had just given my dad a FNH FNX 9mm and while out there he mentioned that he had seen the pipe in my car and missed the smell of Old codger burley. Well luck would have it and I had brought a pouch of Prince Albert, so I smoked a cob full while the three of us shot an assortment of things. I was also able to pick up my new Walther PPS this weekend, so this morning a had a large cup of cuban coffee, a cob full of the prince and familiarized myself with it as I break in the trigger.

Last nights Pipe was a newly aquired Butz-Choquin Calabash with a bowl of Cote D'Ivoire. Smoked 3 bowls now in this pipe and its thin walled so smokes rather warm. Cake is building nicely though and I'm sure once built this pipe will provide a nice cool smoke. Still very pleasant though

Here we go. Sorry no pipe. I was strictly working. No mucking around, no sir!





But I took 'em down again. That head was made of plaster, and way to heavy to safely stay there without a bigger fastener. I would have taken a bloody eye out on one of those tines eventually anyway.

I'll join in spirit with my pipe and some tea my friend .

What a beautiful day!! I'm watching James Bond in Ocotpussy. He's using his Walther PPK, I grew up with James Bond, as a teen, loved the precredits, just to watch the naked gals in sillohoutte.
