[QUOTE="Stick, post: 536621, member: 3474"] A little update. (Vision: to provide a means for pipe smokers here in the 'Shire to gather in a smoking lounge type of venue.) I arranged to have a meeting with the manager of the B&M in question last Saturday, where I ran a few ideas past him. Turns out that whilst he's got the real estate in his shop for a smoker's lounge, it's strictly against the law here in the UK for him to do so. Proprietors are only allowed to have customers sample a small amount of baccy on the premises, but that's all. Rather cheekily I asked if we could sample the same blend over and over again but he didn't really see the funny side of my quip. So, I bought a bag of tapered pipe cleaners and bade him farewell. Driving home this evening I continued to mull things over and, prompted by the comments in another thread recently concerning the chat room, I think an answer would be to utilise tech to connect pipe smokers in an online smoking lounge like, e.g., using Skype. (A 'Skoke' :suspect: ) More thought needed! [/QUOTE]
