Don't panic... it's not quite as it sounds. I returned to work today after a couple of days off, and a colleague who had been impressed with my progress with my eGo called me over. He had purchased a 'look a like' a few days earlier and had been getting on quite well. However on driving home yesterday, vaping at the wheel, he was not getting anything out of it. Still new to this, and not realising that the battery had probably died on him, he craned his neck up to the rear view mirror to see if the end was glowing blue, thus taking his eyes off the road. A few seconds later he had gone up the a** of the car in front which had stopped suddenly. Now I imagine a few of us have had car accidents in our time, and it being quite stressful, you reach for a fag. Well he had no stinkies on him and his new e-cig wasn't working. Apparantly he went through the car's ashtray to retrieve dog-ends to get him through. No-one was hurt (apart from his car's radiator) and he now sees the funny side of it and is going to persevere with vaping (although perhaps not while driving).

There's only one thing more desparate than going through your dog ends. That's going through someone elses

What's the phrase?... "you can lead a horse to water, but you can't make him drink"Several now have been trying the 'look a likes' and only have partial success. When for a few quid more they could feel as happy as I do
