Actually I packed my pipes today for the house move. I counted a dozen, mostly bought by myself, others offered (and none matches my taste), a few inherited from my late father, including a lovely one with a horn mouth piece but which I found broken. When I go back to Lisbon I have to have it repaired.

My taste for the moments depends, for reading I use the 'short and curly' ones as you say, but for more activity it will have to be straight ones.

Cheers!
Miguel
