Hello Everyone..
Just a quick introduction, this is my first venture into Ecigs and I have to say so far I've been pretty impressed!..
To be honest I would of never discovered them, but I had a spontanious pnuemothorax (collapsed lung) and well, I quit analogues (rollies)from the day I was in hospital.. However I love smoking and wasnt really ready to quite {period} as such and I have terrible will power when it comes to such things..
I can't stomach lozengers, nicorete gums etc as they cause extreme hearburn..and found it quite challenging once back, so figured an ecgig would still be a lot better than analogues etc, with a view to eventually quitting full stop..
I know really I shouldnt be putting anything in my lung really except oxygen, but I discovered that with an ecig I only have a few drags in the morning, smoke with lunch and late at night (not sure why but I was supprised I seem to naturally smoke much less than when I was smoking rollies, which is good thing:).. so for now.. I Will continue with my ecig as I've not had an analogue now for nearly 4 weeks:)
I also love anything where there is huge varieties, ie flavours, different equiptment etc to collect, so tend to go through a whole phase of wanting everything haha..
Thanks
Martin

Hey, Thanks Perpetua:) and thank You for the warm welcome.
The vibe here is AWESOME! and probably one of the freindliest forums I think I've experienced!..
and yeah, still gonna take it easy but finding it much much easier to cut down and still enjoy a smoke without worrying with the ecigs: ) and love the variety of flavours too.
Thanks for the link to the banner gonna check it out now, and And Thanks Steve for creating and sharing it:)
