Requiem's pipe journal

07-12-2009, 06:59 PM

The order I placed last week, from the UK, is yet to arrive (I expect it tuesday). During the weekend I've spent a lot of time browsing through tobaccoreviews and american online dealers... it's amazing the quantity of pipes for sale, at nice prices, in pipesandcigars and smokingpipes.

Also, friday I busted my Hilson apple while cleaning it... passing a cleaner through the stem I applied too much strenght and a piece on the bit got brocken. I'll try to glue it back together but right now I'm down to 3 pipes for english blends... way too low for my needs, so...

I think I'll be forced to get a couple of new pipes in the US... a Bjarne and a Brebbia are the ones catching my eye and at least 3 MM corncobs are also coming my way. I'll place my order monday or tuesday, for the pipes and the following tins (all 50g.):

2x GLP Westminster
3x GLP Union Square
1x McCl Frog Morton
1x McCl Frog Morton on the Pond
1x McCl Frog Morton on the Town
1x McCl Virginia nº 22
1x McCl Virginia nº 24
1x McCl Virginia nº 27
1x C&D Junkyard Dawg

also, will get another tin of Westminster and one of Abingdon from a trade with a fellow piper.
