that wont tell me if the filler's burnt... or will it?
Scratch that, I suppose it would do me no harm to have a toke on it if it checks out with the MM, it's either gonna taste rank, or it isn't lol.
Update: Would you believe it, it seems fine, wth, how did it survive that? Thanks Dave.
It's got strawberry in, and weirdly, without refilling it or anything, the strawberry seems stronger in flavour, and much sweeter, yum, How? HOW? lol
Update to the Updated Update: Nevermind, something is wrong, it's ok for the first couple of draws, but then takes an age to wick again, I tried filling it but it's the same, leave it for a minute or 2, have a go and it's fine, but after another go, drys out, until you leave it for a few minutes again. So basically it's very very slow to wick. (I think that is the right term anyway, lol)

Aw Alvoram sorry to hear about your echomiser as it is nice -such a smooth vape as I told Jason. Well SD Keyring arrived this morning and so charged it up and had a go, oh I like it, smmmmmooooth totally, automatic battery is ok as that is what gamucci is, and my new jucies - so have now tried the famous cocomel - like vaping cream ( which I would rather have than chocolate any day of the week) soooo very morish. Out of the 5 sample pack only other one I have tried is whisky cream, oh boy, oh boy, oh boy I LOVE it. I always had whisky with coke or orange as my tipple of choice and of course being on rather strong pain killers these past 10 years drinking has been a no -no I missed it, never was a great drinker, one or two a night was more than enough and that was singles and small ones but I did enjoy it and this has brought that pleasure back, wonderful. Hubby says its the strongest smelling juice so far and to him its smells like coffee. I bought my first menthol juice so will see what that is like as menthol has always been a flavour I like the smell of but hate the taste and was the reason inhalators never worked for me as after the first few puffs all I can taste is the menthol in them but I know many on here have said its totally different vaping it.
I still have the cherry cola I got last week and as yet have not tried and I do like the Liqua Original Smoke Juice Tobacco flavour but unfortunately its out of stock and I only have a tiny bit left so keeping that when I really want a tobacco hit. I have the grand total of 16 different flavours but not tried them all yet.
I don't get out that much to pass the word but hubby is being my ambassador for e-cigs by slowly telling everyone in work who smokes when he is on a round with them about them. So I am going to pass all the business cards I get for him to pass on. Today when he was dropped home the guy who did so popped his head out of the van and told me how hubby is singing my praises on stopping the nasties and the e-cigs have worked so well with me. Everyone wants a lookalike at first and so hubby has told them which one I used as they are impressed at me using it and stopping straight away, so I have told them they can pick up a disposable from Tescos but they want info on the Gamucci, so hubby asked me to give him all the details so will print up and information sheet on not just the Gamucci but some of the other ones whose starter kits are around £35 same as the Gamucci with the places you can buy them on-line and of course put our dear suppliers on it. I Know some people found the E-Lights good but only other lookalike I have tried is the nicolites from Tesco's as my local one doesn't sell the Motive 10. There are over 100 delivery drivers in hubbys firm and over half of them smoke. The one in Argos says no nicotine so unless someone really only wants to basically go cold turkey but have something in their hand/mouth I don't think that is a good one to start with, and its more expensive.
Am sitting here as I type vaping on the whisky and cream, its feels almost wrong to be having a whisky vape in the afternoon. Must try the cherry brandy again, I loved it at first then taste buds changed and it tasted awful, same with cherry pipe.
Oh yes how do you turn the Riva off? I should from now one only have SD Keyring in my pocket or bag when out but handy to know if I am going out for the day or longer so it doesn't accidently get turned on. My next purchase will be a clearomisor, although will have to buy two to see which resistance is best for me, but they do look nice - gosh there is just some many things that look nice even if you don't actually buy new e-cigs, all the bits and bobs that fit on them look so good.
I don't have that many nail polishes so have just written names of juice in cartos on tiny piece of paper and selotaped it round them.
Hubby is going to pop out soon to pick me up some glycerine from chemist as I do have some in but its in the tiny bottles from baking aisle so not sure if its suitable as I bought a bottle of juice, one of the first that is 24mg which is to strong for me so hoping by diluting it in VG it will feel better, not blow my head off. Its funny most of my flavours are Griswalds small bottles so 20mg and they are fine, as are ones that are 18mg, 16mg or 12 -16mg yet that extra 4mg makes me feel my head is going to explode or eyes pop out my head.
Just realised I have been rambling on here for nearly two hours - not typing continuously of course.
I should have been going out to a posh do tonight but as I have now been awake 33 hrs I don't think going would be a good idea as I could crash at any time, so annoyed was looking forward to it and even bought a new dress and paid for it tickets for the do, its a fund raising event so no getting the money back, ah well - hubby said we will go out of a nice posh meal so I can wear it before I go to see - are you ready for this - the Osmonds at beginning of April, he is not going to it he couldn't sit through a full concert by them but then he is off to see Derren Brown ( again) at the Lowry in Manchester in a couple of weeks and I will not be going, went to one of his shows but I am not a fan by any stretch of the imagination. but we will book somewhere nice before or even afterwards. I used to love them but then never came up to Glasgow sadly so now they are coming here I just have to go and see them and fulfil my childhood dream of seeing them live. I wonder if I can vape inside? Not in the auditorium I don't expect that but in the entrance or the bar? Don't know if I will have the courage to ask so might just have a sneaky vape in bathroom during the interval.
Well bored you all enough I better stop before this becomes a book
Have a great evening folks

Fantastic read Prep I love long posts, sitting back and just havign a good old read instead of a scroll every 30 seconds lol Have fun at the concert, if you take a riva, stand near a wall and just blow your vapour downwards towards your shoes and it will be unnoticable in a crowd Top Tip! lol P.S. Why have you been up for 33 hours ?

I know what you mean about the 24mg juice. I bought some RY4 in that strength so the plan is to mix it with some low strength caramel! I find 15mg is my total comfort zone, though 20mg is handy during the day when I'm just having sly puffs and around 10mg when chain vaping! Enjoy the Osmonds

Prepare, the bottles of glycerine you bought from the supermarket baking section will be fine to use to cut your e-liquids

Got to admit the whisky cream at the moment is most definitely my favourite, I have been constantly vaping it since yesterday - going to have to buy some more, and there was me thinking I will not have to buy any more for a few weeks. Just my luck Jason has it on weekend special this weekend but I am broke till the weekend so will miss out Hubby picked me up a bottle of gycerine from the chemist before I read your post Chrissie - £2.95 eekkss a bit more than Boots but it was further away. The awake 30+ hours for me is no uncommon its just part of me I go through phases when I sleep to much and other times when nothing puts me out, and I mean nothing. A few years ago I had to have a light anaesthetic to have an abscess removed and was going through one of my wakeful periods and they found when they gave me up to the limit that I just would not go under, they had to remove it under local. Its all part of the my condition - I did fall asleep around 10.30pm and didn't wake up till just after 4pm Sunday afternoon. Longest I have stayed awake is 57hrs, but although awake I feel as if I am moving in slow motion after about 32hrs before that am ok. Must remember to parcel up a Gamucci cartomiser as Jason has kindly said he will have a look and see if any of the adaptors he sells will fit it, only way really to find out as I could buy and buy and might never get one. Then if he does find one he can let me know and I will buy it from him. It will be good if I can get an adaptor as I have so many of them and can use them then on Riva and save me having to buy any more cartomisers for a bit. I have washed it out so hopefully should be dry enough to post off in the morning. Well its nearly 3am and I am actually tired again so hopefully will sleep just a few hours as if its nice I want to get my fruit bushes into the ground as I noticed one of them is actually starting to bud, and really should not be moved but its in a container with 1o other bushes where I placed them when they arrived in December and have only just got the ground ready for them. One last vape I think - of the Whisky Cream then zzzzzzzzzz Night night all

Well last of the Whisky Cream has gone in - gone through the whole 5mls since Saturday, not used a full bottle of anything else yet apart from vanilla tabac and that lasted longer than a couple of days......guess I love it so much I am vaping it much, much more.
Roll on Thursday when I can order more and this time it will be a 30ml bottle.
Put it aside to use occasionally to make it last and have just tried the cocomel again, now after a few days steeping I can taste the coconut as well as the cream, reminds me of a bounty and even though I am not a coconut lover I have to admit it is nice.
Not tried the other non tobacco flavours yet but think I will put some in on atomisers and try them as now taste buds are behaving again and giving me the delicate tastes I think I might prefer the non tobacco flavours except when I still get the 'i want a nastie' craving.
I have to admit I know deep down I am still a smoker who just hasn't had a nastie, I feel if I was to dare try one I would be back smoking them, so I must never, never have even one puff. Maybe a day will come when I wake up and not think of a nastie but its not come yet. Its not that I find it hard not having one, vaping satisfys me totally but I suppose the habit of being one for 35 years is deeply ingrained.
Oh well better have something to eat then get out into the garden and plant those fruit bushes.
Hope everyone is feeling good and weather ok where you are - here its overcast but not cold.

Preps, I reckon you'd suprise yourself and find that the Nasties taste just that, nasty. Have you smelt someone just after they have had a nasty? What did you think?

I never have been tempted once to have a nasty and that makes me so happy I never thought I would feel like this, you would have to hold me down, kicking and screaming before I put one of them to my lips, I can sit with smokers and I puff my ecig and think why wont they show more interest in my ecigs lol
