AAE-C's Vapfest 2013 Live Feed Broadcast . . .

[chykensa]

I'm feeling the same as you stamina, but I will be reading to hear if there is any fallout over this - and to see how Dolly gets on, as she is in a wheelchair too.
I would like a prompt response to this incident by the VF organisers, as they obviously haven't realised that we are in the 21C yet!!

It churns my stomach to read that two wheelchair users was told by a member of staff can they park them up and walk.
I won't be reading anything else from this years vapefest.

Soz Stamina, I didn't post this to spoil anyone's day. I thought that if Dolly is keeping her eye on the thread, she would be for-warned. Knowing Dolly, I am sure she will know exactly where to shove her ramps if she should sample the same sort of attitude

[zeldamum]

Thats terrible. I would have thought they would have had ramps in this day and age already and the staff would know how to use them.

[Perpetua]

Dolly's made her ramps available for anyone who wants to use them, perhaps someone would be kind enough to pass that info on, on ukv. 

Having a fab time, now my head has caught up with the rest of my bod. 

We've  got  ' Des's Deals ' set up on the corner of our table and  I've unbought 60 squids worth.

Will do it now Perps.

Edit: All Done!
The UKV thread is saying that there are ramps available now, so presumably they are Dolly`s

Enjoy your time, wish I could be there.......just to buy a tenners worth of raffle tickets

And to meet you all of course

[Chrissie]

Thumbs up to Dolly for making her ramps available for anyone that needs them

[chykensa]

Here here, well done Blownupdolly!!

[zeldamum]

Well done Dolly.

Greigster You done the right thing by posting the intolerable act and bringing it to our attention, its so unexpected when one would expect the vaping community to be looking out for their own. Its beyond belief how disability can be overlook when everyone is fighting for equality.

chykensa. Well Said and fair play to Dolly for sharing her ramps.

Could nt agree more
I ve been logging in and out to get an idea of what vapefest is all about and brought a few smiles.

But to refuse access to two people that are wheelchair bound is scandalous (its been fun seeing how excited everyone has been for this weekend...im sure those two people were equally as excited )

Well done greigster and perpetua for at least trying to resolve it

DiscoDes - is it a 'no-vaping' venue? ???

Don't see anyone vaping or clouds of vapour. (Few folk holding mods, but that's about it )

Don't be daft. I didn't need to vape in the marquee for all the clouds in the vapour.

[djs]

It was pretty mad. Actually, in the end I bought nothing as I couldn't be bothered to stand around waiting for so many people at so many stands.

Looked like the Vendors were doing good business.

Shook hands with a few peeps (vendors etc.) and got to sit at the honoured table of AAEC with King Chris, Queen Dolly, Prince Bluefish and Princess Spikey.

Raffle about to start!
