Morning, it's foggy, cold and damp in Ottawa. I guess a coffee with some GL Pease Sixpence in an Ashton Old Church will fix me right up. :D

Synjeco. No doubt a group buy from them will be organized in the spring if you prefer not to order overseas yourself.

Speaking of which, Greenodd Rope in a Czech mini-churchwarden this morning while taking a break from grading
 
Not far from finishing this bowl of Watch City Deluxe Crumb Cut in a 2015 Basil Meadows smooth straight thin shank and stem with an aluminum band Bing Crosby Merchant Service replica. Love this pipe and has become one of my favorites! It brings out the best flavor from this tobacco, too.

 
Still cool, wet, and dreary out. So, I'm just going to hang out in the shop and pretend to get some stuff done. The current project is to finish off this cob packed with Rattray's 40 Virginia. The sweet tamper made by my pipe-carving buddy, Gary Balestrieri (Marvic Pipes), will be providing the assist.

Just finished smoking MacBaren Symphony in a slight bent black pattern etched 1979 Lorenzo Lorsan Sigma tilted top with a gray swirl colored stem.
 
Now smoking HU White Dog in a 2014 smooth quarter bend Basil Meadows horn with a cumberland stem and p-lip. Got this and five other samples of HU blends, plus three variations of an upcoming HU blend that blender Hans Weidemann is working on. I get to provide feedback!

Just the usual stuff - PS LBF in my Ser Jac Poker after work. Have some aged 5100 ready for after supper, which the humble Stanny Legend 19 is dedicated to.


Cheers,

RR
