A few photos from Vapefest 2014

That's me on the left, Mr Bag Man in the sunglasses I agonised the night before about taking a rucksack with wellies and waterproofs, but when I tried putting it on went backwards 45 degrees so it was a relief seeing the improving weather forecast on Saturday morning. Ended up wandering around VF like a vagrant with plaggy bags

Oh clairea I forgot to answer you last night - no unfortunately you didn't win anything in the raffle.

no worries i'm never lucky in raffles lol, i've been entering one raffle every month for 4 years, there are only two prizes every month but have never won either of them lol, 

seems odd though that one person can win twice when you could only have a max of 5 unless he kept going back and buying more, and because so many people they didn't notice,  you would have thought he would have said put it back and let someone else have a chance, I would have done but then thats me

[davetherayon]

We were sat in a 'magic circle' when it came to the raffle clairea. Steve won, then the guy sat next to me won, and someone right in front won. All the time Pepperty was saying how she was unlucky at winning owt in raffles, her luck must have radiated out to others in the area tho

But after all that I would say it was a good weekend but I really do not remember lol

Aaec takeing over the world lol

how on earth did you mange to split your big toe open was that due to drinking to much,  and why are your legs and feet swollen doesn't sound good, sounds like your holding water, you must keep them elevated when you get home 
sorry your lost your mvp hope it was stolen.

Is there a vapefest Ireland, hubby was talking to someone from Ireland yesterday and they said they didn't have anything like that over there. I need a holiday,

maybe i should have stayed, although i think if i had i wouldn't be able to move today at all, it's bad enough as it is.

But the good thing was that i didn't want to vape first thing this morning took me 4 .5 hours before I did, usually like smoking i crave the nicotine nearly as soon as i wake up, I liked the fact i didn't, but now i've picked it up if feels like my first smoke when you haven't had one for a while the dizzy fuzzy head feeling, Plus suffering from heat rash in places you would want to right under my boobs, this is the worst year for prickly heat ever, 

It was great to see everyone yesterday and put faces to names, can't wait for the next one, hubby even enjoyed himself,   said he would take me anytime,

[Bluefish]

Back home and fed and water'd, got I needed that. Had a great time spent too much, literally lol But brill meeting you all, old and new, got to go now, bed is calling.

[chrisintheuk]

oh well - been Home a few hours now and just wanted to say that me and my other half had a great day at vapefest and a great night with teethcv and partner on the town in Shrewsbury (we all had thick heads this morning)

[arron]

I don't suppose any of the campers have found a caravela?? Nothing on top just the mod with a purple efest 30A battery, only noticed this morning that I couldn't find it.

[chrisjw]

Got home about half an hour ago..............Great seeing & meeting new & old AAEC members......Chuffed to see all the AAEC badges too.....Had a great chat with Kev ( Frogster (The Alchemist) ) over breakfast in the hotel this morning...One question though.......Just after the pic of me & Des sitting down, the heavens opened, thunder & lightning abounded & everyone scarpered for shelter, with the top 15 raffle tickets still to be drawn.........did the raffle actually complete?


"Life...........is just a bowl of tricks!!!!!!"

[Pepperty]

Back home too, and all packed away and house tidied and photo's loaded Was lovely meeting everyone and sorry I missed a few of you. It's been a blast, I'm absolutely shattered though...some rowdy people at vapefest

I'm actually considering 'hair of the dog' as it worked well enough for me on Saturday but it's probably time to detox!


Relieved to see you still have your lovely new mod Steve (VapeStorm) I did try prodding you awake at 8.30 to hand you back your vape gear bag -- in the end I just shoved it into your sleeping tent, you were doggo! also glad you got your train, I let the gang you needed to be on a 10am train home!

Was almost gutted DiscoDes didnt win a raffle prize, he'd promised to dance his way up to collect


And here's our lovely deesigner rocking the wellies


And a nice one of davetherayon teethcv and Steve (VapeStorm)

[Phoenixflame (Julie)]

Just for those who don't know in Pepperty s post above (number 327) in the background behind discodes is myself giving ukric a hug and thanking him for organising it.  

Many thanks once again - cant wait for the next one. In fact in the car on the way back home seniorphil and I were talking about what time we would be wanting to set off for next years one if its at the same place !

[Pepperty]

Sorry I missed you chrisintheuk and clairea I looked out for you but shame we didn't get to say hiya


teethcv and his lovely lady --sorry I didnt catch her name? hope she enjoyed vapefest

dagl and Perpetua Having a good old natter Thanks for 'the zapper' cant wait to try it out (youtube is my friend)

I didnt see a lost mod, sorry to hear you've mislaid some gear arron ...after mislaying your car-keys (in the boot) was a bit of a nightmare for you! Perps and Steve did sterling work prizing it out with a cobbled metal hook. Mind you, I lost my car keys a few times. After half an hour of panicking they were found sticking out of my driver side door

Loving teh t-shirt davetherayon
