Yet another newb

Those are some nice looking pipes! I hope you enjoy your journey in pipes!

The Sav and Stanwell arrived!

Now I'm building a cellar using these. Hydrated's PIF will now have a home.



Probably better take the olive's out first...

Glad to see you joining the Darker side! Pipe is a good compliment to Cigars, sometimes I have to clear my head with a good aromatic. Al better watch his back as well!

Today I will smoke my first bowl and enjoy my poverty before socialism does!

I'm having lunch with Peter (physiognomy) and light-up a selection he has prepared for me. Then, we are going shopping for pipe accessories. Will post pics of the wreckage and a review of my first smoking experience later.

My shopping list.

Selection of Baccy
Old Boy lighter & fuel
Tamper
Pouch
Cork knocker
Ash tray
Misc pipe cleaners
Pipe sweetner
Grain alcohol
Pipe and stem polish
Reamer tool set
Fold-up pipe rest(s)
Pipe stand
Another pipe for my rotation
And...any dam thing that strikes my fancy.

What a day!

First Peter spends several hours going over baccy's, care and maintenance and suffering my excitement. Smoked my first bowl and it was pure satisfaction and I know that I'm beyond help!

Here are some samplers he gifted me.



Then we went shopping and I picked up a couple of things. Going to get the rest of my list online.



Thanks to anyone who happens buy for also suffering my excitement!
