    Something Like Presbyterian Mixture?

    That's gonna be a tough one. I would try GL Pease Westminster or Meridian, and even Piccadilly or Kensington. Then you have a chance of finding them in 8 oz tins. In fact, there could be a number of GL Pease to choose from and one of them might just be the right taste for you. When I am in...

    I know I belong to a bygone world because…

    I cannot stand the music. I consider advertising to be an assault upon me personally.

    Carole Burns

    None of us is getting any younger. I was outside doing some small stuff yesterday for the first time since my brush with pneumonia while in Florida. Finally really starting to feel right again. Been out of the hospital a month yesterday. The whole house generator needed some attention. I...

    Carole Burns

    Pipes Magazine reported that she was retiring in late 2016. If you are looking for repairs, search that thread and there is a number to call. But she may be totally retired by now.

    Latest incredible JinHao - the 9019.

    I don't write enough with mine. Retirement can do that. I used to sign documents and fill out forms all day.

    Dunhill Tobacco Jars

    And, by rights Ron should not have been asking to find one in this thread. I guess we overlooked that. He should have posted a Wanted in the Trading Post. Blackhorse is absolutely correct. Scammers look for wanted ads. On the other hand, we are a friendly bunch and would welcome...

    Red Breasted Woodpecker attacks my Birch

    They destroyed our back porch roof supports going after carpenter bee larva. Just as well as we didn't know the bees were a problem. If you have a woodpecker problem, you actually have a bug problem.

    Without bots and guests this site would be dead.

    There's a lot out there vying for people's attention.

    Mark Tinsky 2023 Christmas Pipes

    Years ago BoB Forum did a very similar pipe as a forum pipe. Mark's email popped in the inbox this morning, so I thought I would pass this on. I still haven't wore out those I bought in the past. Mark makes good smoking pipes at a reasonable cost. You can get fancier if you want. The link...
