Hailing from Staffs
reetings from Norton Canes in Cannock Staffordshire. I’m Ian Lowbridge, a relatively new pipe smoker. For me it all started mid 2022 as a bucket list wish to smoke a pipe, having had pleasant childhood memories of visiting my Moms uncle at Christmas time and seeing his pipe rack full of pipes and the smell of his tobacco. So I bought a Falcon Coolway pipe and a pipe tobacco sample pack, watched as many how to YouTube videos as I could find, and the rest as they say is history.
