Just opened a tin of 2017 Frog Morton. Having it in a fav Stanwell Brushed Black apple with Earl Gray tea. This was a go to English when McClelland was still around. When they closed I managed to snag 5 tins of FM and FMOTT. Think I have 2 left. I will miss it when it's gone but CS Shepherds Pie will fill the niche.

So Shepherds Pie is one of my go to blends. I didn’t know to try or buy FM when I got back into pipes. I just defaulted to what I knew. But from my mix mixture I found Shepherds pie.
 
Reloaded the Cobbler with MArk Twain. Rebeered as well.

PS: Second helping.

Last smoke of the day is Wilke No. 515 Double Shot in a smooth dark medium bend 2021 Peterson Heritage Brown POTY 4AB No. 45/500 military mount with a silver cap and a tapered black vulcanite AB stem. This is No. 515 with twice the rum of the Basil Rathbone blend. Going to check on Sam the Scamp and her babies.

Good morning, Jim. What would be the difference between a tomato and a bullcap?
 
A third of a bowl left of pre-2014 Edward G. Robinson's Pipe Blend in a 2014 Basil Meadows smooth slight bend squashed tomato with an aluminum band and a black pearl acrylic stem in the military mount style. Ice water and bergs is my drink.

MT in my Cobbler with coffee for lunch. Kinda fixed on this pipe at the moment.

Re Bullcap: read on another site (PM) that Bullcap is a loose definition applied to pipes smaller than a Bulldog with the same general bowl shape and a rounded top. They also equate it with Pear shaped pipes and Freehands. Considering these things it more resembles a Rhodesian than any other. Seems like splitting hairs to me.

Part way through this bowl of year 2016 Sutliff 507-C Slices in a smooth brown quarter bend post-2002 Porsche Design 277-04 radiator horn Made in Holland with an aluminum cap and a tapered black acrylic stem. First time smoking this new-to-me pipe that a great friend gifted me. Coffee from a freshly opened bag of Lavazza Classico, neat, is my drink.
