Today is my sixth anniversary of starting to vape! I've done a write up of my last year (with a link to the story of the first five years) "over the road", in case anyone wants to read it. (I would have put it on here as well but it's full of links to pieces I've done on UKV, so please accept my apologies) ukvapers.org/Thread-SIX-YEARS-VAPING-Prof-s-Story-Continues

Congrats profbeard, quite an achievement. I'll pop over the road for a read later, be interesting to read what you used in those early days.

profbeard.. Congratulations on 6 years vaping and keeping records of your journey. It makes for interesting reading as half of the stuff you mentioned I have never heard of, to think you have kept it all is amazing, especially in this throw away society we live in. It would indeed be worthy of a Vaping Museum collection. Keep up the good work, look forward to reading more in a couple of years.

Bloody hell profbeard. You've had or got some serious amount of gear! I'm only a yearling, and my stable has only just started. Great to hear it's been 6 years, I only wish I'd started long ago.

With the exception of the Nuck's Fistpack which died and even Garry Dibley couldn't fix, I do indeed still have everything mentioned in those articles (apart from the odd thing like eGo battery type stuff which has expired).

Wow that's impressive, so far I've only 2 keepers out of 10 mods and 3 attys out of 13. But I've got another 5 years to get to your standard of kit. I'll get there slowly, next is the SuperT workhorse.

I'm a few years behind but wanted an e-cig as soon as I heard of them but got it into my silly brain the only place I could get one was 'Iwantoneofthose' and I was in debt so couldn't justify the £100 or whatever it was for a cigalike Then one friend told me about TW and I got my first kit......had potential (a titan) Then another friend told me about here a few months later and I've been the bain of the mods lives ever since
