[QUOTE="Timbo, post: 560103, member: 3740"] Started smoking a pipe in uni on Amphora Red, I don't remember any tongue burn/bite so I must have been doing things semi OK even witout guidance. A friend and I decided to take up smoking and the convo went, cigs? too common, cigars? too expensive, a pipe, that sounds just right. I switched to cigs as a convenience when I left uni and was going to gigs/clubs alot with my mates. Even then it was the Indonesian clove ciggies I smoked as I've always been about flavour. After a while I went for a more pure tobacco flavour and smoked Mild Sevens which a mate put me onto. They out Malboro'd Malboro in the flavour department IMO. Then I switched to rolling Port Royale ciggs, a port flavoured baccy from Holland. Which led me back to pipes when I encountered a workmate smoking one and he gave me some GLP Westminster and I was back again on the pipe and haven't looked back. Would be a totally different story today with the harsh anti smoking regs in Aus currently, rather than 30 odd years ago. [/QUOTE]
