Costa coffee

[rincewind]

Just walked in to my local costa as I needed a good hit of caffeine and politely asked if I could use an ecig, at which point the member of staff asked the manager. Thinking I was going to be refused due to the staff members lack of knowledge, I was pleasantly surprised that the manager not only allow it but also went on to pull a provari out of his pocket and asked what flavour I was vaping.

A five minute chat ensued over a coffee as he was just going on his break. Great news and hope other branches are as understanding.

The costa in question is in ashby de la zouch.

As a noob, I'm still going outside to vape rather than asking lol

Thought I'd be cheeky. Got some strange looks from some people due to the plumes of vapour coming from one corner lol, but got asked by a few smokers about what I was using

I do think one of the best things we can all do is vape openly in public, but politely.
We need it to become normal, the more people that have seen vaping in progress
with as many different devices as possible, then the safer we become in the long run.
Don't be shy, come out from behind the bike sheds with your PV held high

To be fair when I was in hospital for 2 days at the start of June I asked if I could use an ecig on the ward and was also told I could. If only I had 20 ego starter kits with me I could have sold them all. I always ask if I can vape and if told no thank them anyway. Also if someone near to me asks me to stop I will.

Now there is a business plan - get an Arthur Daily coat and become a hospital visitor -

You do the starter kits, and I'll follow on with the mobile juice bar

Thinks of old Arthur and then his younger days as Flash, got me onto Carry on films,
Vaping would be a great subject for them - "Carry on Vaping" - the innuendo available to
script writers may even trouble the censors
