The last of my stash of Reiner’s Long Golden Flake in the first pipe Trever Talbot made when he went to France many years ago. It's a smooth straight Algerian briar Billiard bowl with a long Canadian stem, unbranded.

"Hairete" [Χαιρετε] is another Greek expression to salute someone, isn't so simple as the "Hello" and it doesn't show attitude as the " 'Dayyy". The Hairete salute shows more politeness and respect to a person as an elder-a good supervisor-a lovely Lady-family relative etc.
For example: in the intermission of the work your supervisor which you like him passes in front of you, you don't say "Hi" or "Hello" because you already said to him Good Morning when you saw him for first time or suddenly comes to your office an 80's actress that you love as a child, you feel a pleasant surprise and you happy that you saw her at close or you visit someone for his birthday and when you open the door you see in the lounge some family relatives that you have many years to meet them or you are in the cashier and an Army Officer comes to pay and he salutes you gently etc....i think you understand me now.
For sure when you come to Greece as a foreigner nobody will salute you with a 'Dayyy or Hairete or Geia Hara etc because he knows that you will not understand the meaning but when you hear those kind of salutes then you will know that this Greek feels familiar with you and enjoys your companion.

Starting off my smoking day with Year 1926 Edgeworth Ready Rubbed in a very much appreciated 1979 brown, slight bend grain etched flat front Stanwell Rego 969-48 (09) with a black vulcanite stem. A bottle of Cheerwine is my drink. Watching Mad Dog Russo.
