I am sooooo angry with myself, how could I be soooo stupid? Bought 30ml GVC and it has been steeping, decided to start using it today, as it has no inner feed drip top I had to use a pipet to fill my clearomiser, just finished and screwing the top on my clearomiser when it happened....knocked over the GVC bottle all over my table, lost about 10mil, I had forgotten to replace the cap on the bottle .! I am not at all in fact I am , full of self pity at my own stupidity, I hate it when things like this happen don't you?

I'm always knocking everything over on my desk, no liquid bottles yet though.

Oh Phoenix, I do feel for you! This is the sort of thing that befalls me, though not yet with juice, although I did dump a tank full of GVC over my lap and the car seat a couple of weeks ago, but I put that down to 'learning how to remove a DCT from your Vamo'! At least you have 20ml of GVC, which is more than I have at the moment - I'm F5-ing every hour on the chance that Grant is open for business again - I'm getting desperate! I hope you have more luck in the future - my Dad always said "put the top back on Andrew!" whenever I was in a situation like that, and I still do! Andy

A little loss now and again is a small price to pay. When its a liquid you really wanted it is a bugger though.
I nearly knocked over one of my 250ml bottles of nic base the other day and that would have been very bad indeed.

Hi Phoenix I know exactly how you feel. I did the exact same thing 2 weeks ago, with my GVC 50ml bottle. I could not get replacement, but I found a good alternative. "Alchemists" `Egg custard tart`, that`s keeping me sane until Grant is back up and running. #grouphug#

I regularly have senior moments, which is why I only buy cheap wine glasses

Fortunately only done with homebrew juice, but was still gutted . . . 2 recipes never tried before, went to check them when they were steeping & I keep them in a tupperware tub in the top of a cupboard. Putting the tub back & clipped the edge of the shelf . . 30ml of nearly ready banoffee went over & in my haste to grab it managed to knock over another 30ml of raspberry For that very reason it's plastic/acrylic glasses in this house . . only time the real ones come out is for crimbo dinner. They're the first things to get washed up & put away, then back on the plastic

Dropped one of the El toro bottles once (60 ml). Instinctively kicked out and managed to volley it across the room spraying everywhere.Man the wife was chuffed.

On the up side, you still have 20mls left. I, however, have none due to running out, being broke and it not being available atm. Triple whammy here. Chin up! There's always someone worse off. Like me XXX

when I order my next batch from Grant, I will suggest he puts nipple tops on the 30ml bottles.
