    The worst feeling in the world

    Here in the UK we dont have mailboxes, the postman delivers it right to my door, and through the letterbox. But I just try and forget about it, do whatever and it turns up nice and quickly. Post normally takes about 1-2 days, and a couple of hours if its express delivery.

    Clay Tobacco Pipes = Need Your Opinions....etc,..

    How are clay pipes? Clay pipes a lovely, they don't ghost, they're fairly cheap and give a nice flavourful smoke. the draw is smooth and they dont really need time to rest.

    Pipe Grip Ambidextrous (or Lack Therof)?

    I'm ambidextrous anyway, but my left hand is dominant, if that makes sense. I feel perfectly comfortable holding my pipe in any hand, in any side of my mouth.

    Wider or Deeper?

    Wider bowls make the baccy burn unevenly, so for me its all about deep bowled pipes. Tobacco burns in an upside down pyramid, and when the bowl gets wider a lot of the tobacco on the outside rim doesn't burn.

    How many ounces do u smoke in a week?

    I only smoke 1 or 2 bowls per day, so it takes me a good few weeks to get through a 50g tin.
