@PipeIT The Cavaliers & Roundheads' baccy in the 1640s would probably have come from Jamestown. Might take some of the 1792 Flake to Nantwich this month - I can't ask a musketeer to light the clay with his match cord due to the explosion risk. Sealed Knot rule is no smoking on the battlefield!You’re asking about Pipes and Customs?
Hmm, I wouldn’t really know, I assume it might be better than tobacco, but hopefully someone will see this and give an answer...
I bet the Jamestown site is full of broken clays
Some well aged Germain's Brown Flake in a Peterson Deluxe System 20s
@PipeIT Ironic that Jamestown's biggest export was King James I's biggest hateSutliff States of Virginia in a Radice Rind Straight.
Getting ready to watch some more Jamestown, and this is certainly a fitting blend for the show too... LOL
Be well everyone!

P.S. This Jamestown show is when the English first settled too in Virginia, notice the English flag in the credits.
Nearing the last quarter of this bowl of year 2014 Edgeworth Ready Rubbed Match in a 2018 full bend smooth Terracotta Peterson XL315 System Standard military mount with a nickel cap and a flared black vulcanite p-lip stem.
Am I allowed to come back and say I’m still on the same pipe and blend I started out the day with? LOL 
Yep, still slow ass puffing Brighton in my Radice Clear Bent Dublin blah blah blah...
But, I really just came back, because I just started to watch on Netflix; See You On Venus.
A girl travels to Spain in search of her birth mom.
So I had to come back and have this one for @JOHN72 
Be well everyone!

See You on Venus follows Mia (Virginia Gardner) and Kyle (Alex Aiono), two misfit American teens who travel to Spain in search of Mia's birth mother. As the pair road trip through the picturesque cities of Andalusia and fall in love, they discover that the most important question isn't who gave...

@The Clay King In VAT nations you should (I didnt say will...but should) get charged the standard import duty on a pipe. Its not tobacco which I imagine is heap higher. It should be the standard 20ish percent plus processing fee. Of course if you can get someone to list it as a gift or a lower value you will save. Not worth it on smaller purchases but and expensive pipe....
Smoking some HU Indaba in a ser jacopo. Slowly building a new tad list. Probably just to stock up a little more. This is good but I dont know if its a repeat. Im trying to stick to around half dozen staples. Its in a Ser Jacopo.
I seem to smoke sweeter blends in the morning. Later today I will fire up some Zulu in the Paul Becker. Ive some sax mouthpieces to make in between.

One of the two last bowls left from Capstan yellow, is smoked now in a George Leoussis pipe, while transferring tobacco from tubes and tins into jars, making and putting labels on them, such a pleasant and creative work this is...
P.S. If you permit me, in regards to previous posts: putting logic over emotion is a recipe for a dry, flat life (in my opinion)
Have a nice, first Sunday of the year, good people!

How are you liking the Mac B vanilla Dan? Have you tried any of the others yet?

This is so peculiar, a few of the driving scenes in the movie are coastal roads in Spain, that look exactly like areas around the coast of Maui.
This is from the movie in Spain...
This is going around the west side of Maui...
And then if that wasn’t enough, not even a minute after the van in the movie is driving down the road in that first screen shot, this scene appears next in the movie. LOL
Hulu in Spain baby! LOL
Morning everyone, starting off with Bankside in a Kaywoodie Centennial billiard and Lavazza Terra Africa coffee.
The sun is out today for a change, bright but chilly.

Cinematographers are notorious for stringing scenes for the look rather than reality. If you want to see the real Spain I recommend Pedro Almodovar, actually there’s dozens of brilliant Spanish film makers.@JOHN72

Cornell & Diehl - Haunted Bookshop in a Country Gentleman Cob and a Cup of Joe.
After dodging it for a few years, struck by Covid; tasteless coffee and equally tasteless Exclusive in a Shilling.
... I don't know where Stanton came from.
I was hoping from the Yankees and someone was dumb enough to trade for him. No such luck.
Bummer @Cloozoe We got it from a xmas gathering at a nursing home of all places. I didnt lose all my taste and smell but I could only taste basic flavors...sweet, salty and other strong tastes. It has taken almost a month and I at least have most of it back. I couldnt taste the difference between any tobacco so I basically smoked junk or blends I didnt like. All I got was kind of a nutty taste. I hope you have a quick recovery.
Bowl ten in the calabash meer, RMBF ‘21, same as before. Beautiful, cold, wet weather out.
