That's the spirit!

Fair enough sir. I think I'll have myself a proper smoke when I get home.

I really need to practice my loading. I get about 2 or 3 puffs and have to relight. I tamp it, light it again and get a few more puffs and then a relight. Maybe im expecting too much, or maybe im packing it awfully.

What are you smoking? Some tobaccos perform better when they air dry a bit. SG tobaccos are notoriously moist. I don't have a problem with that, though, as it is easier to dry it than re-humidify it. Try putting it on a plate for 15 minutes or so and see how that work.

I actually enjoy the kick of flavor and cloud or smoke I get from relights. Is it weird to enjoy having to do a relight once in a while?
