With all the posts on the forums and a mention on VTTV I'm sure you'll get people along.

DJ, I'm sure you're right but it would be great to have a few confirmation emails or something so that I can sleep easy. Failing that, I'll have a good few whiskys tonight and I'll sleep easy no matter what.

How often do you get a chance to be on TV and at prime time as well? We still need confirmed bods to turn up on Wednesday afternoon around 4pm'ish and for a mini vape meet at the pub opposite for the BBC film crew to focus on. Come on guys and gals lets show the BBC what vaping is all about and really plug the vaping community whilst we're at it. We wont get another chance like this for a long time.
Cheers, Phil

Thanks guys, Your support is well appreciated even though you may be too far away to be here in person. By the way, our website is so out of date with regards the amount of stock and variety of hardware we have. Since we opened a few days ago we have had thousands and thousands of pounds of new items in. We are so busy sorting out the shop we haven't found time to update the website yet but we will over the next week or so. I just want to get the BBC out of the way first.
Thanks again to everyone that's helping to spread the word about the BBC visit. I'm sure that there will be a good turn out even though we haven't see confirmations on the forums. The word has got to be getting around by now.
Don't forget everyone, there is going to be a vape meet at the Prince of Wales pub opposite our shop at 5pm in readiness for the BBC broadcast. This is a chance for everyone that can attend to speak up and provide a positive slant on all things vaping. BBC South today at 6pm on the following day will be watched by 100,000's of viewers and a good number of MP's. The viewing figures for South today is somewhere in the region of 500,000 viewers. This is a huge opportunity for anyone and everyone to get involved. What a brilliant way to get World vaping day noticed. Phil

This is a last minute reminder to anyone that can make tomorrow either at the shop or at the Prince of Wales pub to help support the BBC news shoot. The BBCarrive at the shop at 3pm and will be there until 5pm. At 5pm we will head over to the pub opposite for a vape meet. I know of at least 2 other vendors as well as ourselves that will be there along with a selection of shinies etc.. The BBC film crew will also come across to the pub to film casual vapers over a beer. As part of this occasion and also as part of World vaping week, we will be giving a 20% discount off everything in store for tomorrow afternoon only. Come along and provide your support for vaping as part of World Vaping Week. Your support will make a big difference. Hope to see as many of you there tomorrow as possible.
Cheers, Phil

Just a quick update. I have passed on contact details of a guy called Ian in charge of The Chequers Inn in Charney,Oxfordshire to the BBC as another vape friendly pub. The BBC wanted a pub in Oxfordshire to do a similar filming so that they could put the vaping piece out on BBC Oxfordshire at the same time on Thursday. I don't know if they will film there or not but I'm pretty sure they will. If they do it will be sometime between 4.30pm and 5.30pm tomorrow if anyone is interested. Every little bit of positive publicity we can get really helps to make people aware of what vaping is all about. We don't get many opportunities to get vapers together in one place the same time as an eager BBC film crew so lets all give these opportunities our best shot.
Cheers, Phil

I'd suggest you contact Dave Dorn of Vapourtrails TV and get him to put an announcement out on his Twitter feed as he has qute a few followers, also did you try Rob @ry4 Radio? Sorry these suggestions were not made earlier but I've been out of the Country for 2 weeks. Do you do Twitter? DD's twitter account is hifistud
