YO YO YO Santa, what say we kick this mule and get her going? At the very least… set a signup deadline and the dollar amount(s).

Need to know before the end of November or I’ll have to withdraw from participation.

Capital idea!

Ok guys, we have ten, that's great, we can accomodate as many as want to join up though, we don't need an even number, and there doesn't need to be a limit.

That said, lets make the wednesday NOVEMBER 25TH. That is one month before these packages should be landed and able to be opened.

If you're interested but on the fence, sign up! it's a great time, and really helps draw the community together around the holidays.

Anyway, while this thread will remain the official SPS thread, I will create a thread for a poll about dollar amounts, and we'll set our limits to appease the masses.

Yo Santa,

I smoke English mixtures, don't care for Balkan's and can't stand perique.

Wish list? G. L. Pease Westminster and Maltese Falcon, that's it.

Should you deside to send whatever you want want to send, I'll be just as happy.

D.

just for clarification, would you mind to define balkan (as opposed to english) as it can be a murky distinction? thanks dood

Default Re: 2009 Secret Santa Pipe Edition

mine will likely evolved as I think of things I would like, but for starters

I would like to stock up on:
McClellands Bombay Court
McClellands AM Pipe (I've seen this as smoking pipes)

Other baccies I'm interested in:
frog morton series (have only tried ATP)
penzance if you can find it
I have about zero experience with C&D blends, so if there's something in particular there, same with GLP - note, I'm not a huge plain burley fan (too much nicotine in general)
Or, anything you love and would like to share - I'm up to try anything

non tobacco items
a pipe/baccy pouch for travel or herfs would be cool, but I know these can be pricey


anyway, that's what I can think of for now

I go by the manufactures definition of the blend.

Bill Bailey's Balkan Blend, Syrian Full Balkan, Abingdon and Charing Cross are a few of the balkan blends I've tried, didn't care for any of them.

I'm a pipe noobie with only one pipe, so I'd like a pipe, preferably one with a large bowl.

Baring that, I'd like a pipestand or any pipe tobacco you may like to send.

Default Re: 2009 Secret Santa Pipe Edition

I'm not allowed to smoke a pipe indoors, here at home, or at college. And with the weather getting colder, I hate to have to go outside in the chill, because it aggravates my muscle aches and pains. My list is below:

Tobacco items:
A nice variety of snus samples, with different nicotine levels (nothing under about 10mg please) and at least a couple high nicotine versions (15-17mg.) Please try not to purchase all the same brand, unless you yourself use snus and can assure me there will be noticeable flavor differences. I'm trying to broaden my horizons.

You can either put one together yourself with a few cans (http://www.northerner.com/en/)

or snag a sampler here (http://www.northerner.com/en/snus/No...us%20Box-2604/) which costs $35.10 shipped Swiss Post with no tracking or around $50 USD via UPS with tracking.

Non-tobacco items:
http://www.amazon.com/Daddy-Bent-Leg...lp_edpp_ttl_in

Any money left over you feel like spending, I'd like a few cans of Copenhagen long cut.

Hope this doesn't sound like too much; I don't need all of it if it can't be done, naturally.

Thanks in advance, Santa!

Hi Santa! I've been a good boy this year (mostly...)

I'd like to ask for...

Tabak:
GLP Union Square
GLP Westminister
GLP Key Largo
I'd love some Squadron Leader
Any flake blend
Any Virginia tobacco's even blends with latakia, burley or "light" perique
Any Navy blend, I've had the SG Navy Flake
Any "Christmas" Blend
Habana Daydream
Your favorite "go-to" tobacco

Non Tabak items:
Can always use another cob or two
Pipe rest for the car
Any kind of pipe rest
Pipe travel bag (doesn't have to be leather)

Any other Pipe or tobacco items, you like to use...

Since this is a list to Santa, I just listed some stuff, off the top of my head!

I'm also a noob pipe guy. I'd like to ask Santa for:

Any kind of briar pipe to add to my small collection.
or
Any aromatic blends of baccy. I've tried and liked some Boswell's stuff like Christmas Cookie, Maple and others, and have been wanting to try:
Apple Strudel
Berry Cobbler
Cherry Smash
Peaches and Cream
Raspberry Cream
Sweet Tea
Vanilla Cream

Default Re: 2009 Secret Santa Pipe Edition

All right Santa, I've tried to be pretty good this year, so here's a list of things to give you some ideas...

Accessories:

Senior Pipe Reamer

Zippo Pipe Lighter

6 pipe stand

Regular pipe Cleaners


Tobbaco:

I'd like to try some more oriental tobacco, so if you have any that you think I need to try send it my way.

I smoke a bit of everything, VAs, Va/Per, Aros. So if you have any favorites you think I might like, you could throw those in too.



This is kind of a hodgepodge of things I wouldn't mind having. I like surprises though too, it's part of the fun of Christmas, so if you'd like to throw a curveball at me Santa go right ahead

I'm sorry Santa, could one of the elves delete my wishlist please, as well as this post? I'd like to reword it and possibly change a few things.

Thanks.

Ok I have all of the Pm's now. I have a 12 page paper due tomorrow (I'll be up really late tonight) and two more papers due this week. Happily though I am finished with school and graduating next week. However i should have this done and the info back to you tomorrow or the next day. I know you all are eager, school is just really tough the next two weeks.
