Hello from Cornwall

[larrysson]

Hi everyone, my name is Paul, I'm an ex-pat from Indiana that has been living over here for ten years. I'm a professional pipe maker by trade, but I'm not here to advertise ( but I do like to show off my work like any artist that loves his/her work). I've been a pipe smoker for a lot of years, but recently I was given my first cuban (cohiba) and I couldn't believe what I have been missing! All this time in the UK, and I could have been building up a cigar cellar! So, here I am, ready to lurk for a few weeks while I try to educate myself about this new world of tobacco. Having a quick look around already, its will be hard to know where to begin or what to try first. It feels walking around my first pipe show in Chicago back in 99...man this is gonna be FUN!

Hello and welcome. There are a few pipe smokers here. I enjoy a pipe or two. Plenty to learn about cigars though.
