Ay up Chrissie and family...been quite awhile since I passed this way...much has come to pass in that time...some good and some not so good but hey...that's what it's all about...we are still smiling and enjoying life...hope it is playing fair with you all too. Bout a year ago I ventured into the land of the e-cig...bought a 510-T and faffed around with it on occasion but never really got into it seriously...until a week past monday...got up and had my usual coffee...but didn't fancy my usual rollie...although I have to say there have been quite a few occasions when I would not have my 1st smoke until late morning or early afternoon so I didn't think much about it at the time. Around mid afternoon I decided to break out the e-cig instead of rolling one...faffed around filling the carto and fired her up...coughed a few times until I found my rythm and I was vaping quite nicely...has been like that ever since and I can honestly say I have had no cravings for a "real" cig since then...not even while Mr Flynt was smoking a rollie and I stood next to him...it wasn't a tempting nor a disgusting aroma...it was just there. But the most amazing thing happened...Mr Flynt had been Googling e-cig kit's and said he would give it a go too...he found an Ego-T C4 kit with charger/2 batteries/2 tanks for £19.99 @ Vapeland (clearance price due to the case size being wrong one from suppliers)...anyway I ordered it last Tuesday...it arrived on Wednesday and by 3pm Mr Flynt had a fully charged battery and a filled clearomiser...and he too has been happily vaping since last Wednesday with no cravings either...he had about 1oz of virginia left but had no desire to roll/smoke a real cig...he gave the leftover tobacco to a friend on Saturday and all the ash trays are gone...we are now officially a non smoking household. Now as for Vapeland...an amazing company...I ordered some new clearomisers for Mr flynt last Thursday night...they were in post on Friday...arrived monday...then my old 510-T batteries decided to stop holding charge and were becoming hard work so I decided to order another C4 battery and a couple more clearo's so we could both use them...that was Sunday night...they arrived today (Tuesday)...their service is excellent and email updates are sent at each stage of the order process...I would recommend them to anyone who has not already used them. I ordered more juices too from Vapingvision...another excellent company with fantastic service...3 tobacco ones and decided to experiment a bit so ordered a Coconut and a Bubblegum one to mix with the others...loving the bubblegum...tis not half bad this vaping lark.

Congratulations on starting your vaping journey, there are really good vendors out there its always good to have a look on the shopping section and vendor offers and if you don't mind waiting fast tech has become really popular really cheap and free postage but can take 2 week plus to arrive.
Keep up the vaping and enjoy, everyone is helpful here.
:-)

Thank's for the supportive comments folk's...appreciated...we are both still "vaping" quite happily...not a single...solitary so called craving for the old smelly baccy for either of us...tis has been an easy transition for both of us. I know it can be very difficult for many to find the right frame of mind but it can be done without suffering all the "withdrawl" symptoms we are conditioned to expect when "giving up". So in the hope it may help anyone who is struggling to "survive" without the dreaded weed I thoroughly recommend people read Alan Carr's book..."The Easy Way To Stop Smoking"...it really put's it into perspective...and explains the clever psychological conditioning employed to keep us "addicted" to smoking while pretending to help us stop...it's not in the Govt interests for everyone to stop smoking...think of the revenue they will lose if everyone did...so smokers are manipulated to think they are making a sacrifice by "giving up"...as Mr Carr say's...get it into your head there is nothing to "give up" but lot's to gain by "stopping"...2 very different meanings...anyone who is struggling with the idea that they are giving up something they actually enjoy should get a copy of his book...it really will give you a whole new way to look at why you smoke and how easy it actually is to stop...with or without the use of e-cig's. I last read it about 6 months ago and Mr Flynt has not read it but has been "lectured" on it's content by me on a regular basis...lol...I believe that it has subconsciously helped us both to reach our decision to stop smoking...and to keep it that way without any problems whatsoever.

Flynt's post should be copied and pasted to the guys in the EU looking at 'regulating' ecigs! Mr EU, success stories like this is why ecigs are a good thing...
