An Ideal PipeI have just recalled something that a Scout leader I know told me once that seemed appropriate to put in here.
When he was at university he had a friend who was doing a physics degree and had an intention of getting his PhD to become a professor. His dream was that he would buy a wooden pipe and somehow convert it into a bubble pipe so that when he was teaching his class he could then when pondering a question he could blow bubbles rather than smoking tobacco.
I thought such a device could perhaps be appropriate for the non-smokers who wish to frequent this room.

That does sound like a rather fine idea indeed. As a commited pipe smoker - or rather a pipe smoker who was once commited i find the idea delightful.

On the subject of pipes! What is the pipe that people use thats connected to a bigger thing in the middle of the table and passed round?? Saw this in a bar in Brighton the other week - I thought it was only a drug thing! 
Sorry for the ignorance..

Thats a hookah pipe - the catarpillar in Alice in Wonderland has one! Yay!
Its not a drug thing - you smoke molasses through it. Its a sticky flavoured tobacco, usually fruity. Its traditional to share one after a meal in places like Morocco. They are seen as trendy in some parts ^_^
I would LOVE a bubble pipe! You can only get rubbish plastic ones though!

What short memories you have ladies, there's a Shisha (Egyptian Water Pipe) pipe in my kitchen, upon which my flatmates and I often imbibe with a nice glass of pimms out on the balcony of a summers afternoon. The apple flavoured Shisha is rather yummy.
I shall let you know when the next party happens!

When I smoked them in Egypt the waiters would all come and stare and point and giggle, you see I provide free entertainment where ever I go!

im fascinated that the pipes all have different names and that people are obviously very clued up to them
a bubble pipe would be ace!
