Well, as I posted before, I'm curious as to pipe smoking and decided to follow the advice already given to me. I just came back from the B&M with 2 pipes, some tobacco, some cleaners and a 3-in-1 tool. Ted was kind enough to suggest to me a variety of tobacco to get, though the bloody store had little to few tobacco types other than flavored (loads of these, though), and even worse, it's the only one I know which sells pipe and pipe tobacco. I got some Burley, Black Cavendish and Vanilla flavored ones (by the way, Ted; if ye'd be kind enough to tell me which ones to smoke in the same pipe, I'd appreciate it a blood load). As for the pipes, I got a London Docks bent billiard and they also sold me a Savinelli billiard. I proceded to ask the sales gal if she'd be kind enough as to show me how to pack it, but I found the explanation a tad unlike what I had read previously on the subject. She said I should pack a tad of tobacco and press it good with the tamper, then poke it a blood load and light, puff and let go off. Then I should do it again 2 more times until the tobacco was about 1 cm below the rim and start smoking it. Anyways, I'm open to any suggestions, comments and the sort and will keep ye updated on the matter.
