Titanium cooking pot/mug, titanium hiking stove and gas, primus nonstick hiking post & lid, primus stove stand, Mrs Bad's 6 cup espresso pot, 2 cafe direct french press mugs, camping plates and a load consumable stuff like snacks, coffee, water, dish cloths detergent, sure there were a few more bits I'm trying not to think about it ATM.

That is complete and utter pish VapingBad . It's maybe a good job that the culprit wasn't caught or you'd be a 6 foot gazebo pole down too coz they'd have it shoved up their inbetweenie bit with the force ten from navarone behind it and able to use the guy rope for dental floss on the road through. It's bad enough when it's theft of any description, what makes it worse, is when it's from someone who shares so much with so many. But I'm a great believer in what goes around, comes around and in this case it can't come around quick enough. Completely and utterly disgusted.

  I know it's a serious subject...but that made me laugh out loud...& whoever the thieving git is...he was lucky to miss the wrath of striker42 

  Jon...you are a complete darling...& I'm just so so sorry 


  P.S. I also noticed that horrid, vile man at a distance

Having just laboured happily through this thread, I really wish I had been able to join you all but Shrewsbury is such a bleddy long way away!
I'm delighted that you all had a serious and sober time together, disgusted that Jon VapingBad had equipment stolen, even more so if it was our former Secret Agent from the North East, and pleased that new friendships have been forged.

I hope to join you all at some point, but many thanks to you all for sharing photos and video so that us unfortunates are able to get a flavour of the event, and put some faces to names.

[thebishman]

What previous member was it?

[vereybowring]

He does not be named in polite circumstances.

Tends to appear in peripheral vision sidling up behind you trying to see/hear what you're doing.
I have 180 degree vision though so spot him every time, he jumped when I turned round fast to look right at him when buying batteries off Torchy Sunday and he was lurking.

The names Banned... James Band.

If you ever catch the guy, see if you can find a sparky with a mega meter

Then test the resistance of his testacles with it

Trust me, you could have hours of fun pressing the button

Ask any sparky, the best way to test a mega is to get a monkey to hold the leads
I'm sure the do gooders have put a stop to all the abuse of gullible and dumb animals these days

Omg guys! He's not worth all this thread room....


Psst I'm not here, I'm on holibobs

[striker42]

Well then, having searched the pics I have on my phone, I've posted the ones that were legible, so just a quick summary of the weekend from me. I'm not going to mention everyone individually, but collectively, I don't think there are any better members of a community anywhere in the world. A couple of days in the sun, where people could leave their everyday challenges behind for a while, meet new friends, eat heartily and drink copious amounts of whatever (oh yes, plenty whatever) what's not to like about that ? A wee special mention to Postmodern Smoking for trekking over land and sea to deliver the VF T-shirts to those of us who ordered them. Thanks Dave. To @spikeyfridge for sniffing me for two days, and making the most bizarre request I've ever had  . ukric and the rest of the folks that help get the event organised.
Would I do it all again..............................................HELL YEAH ! ! !
Anyone who fancies attending an event like this or even a local vape meet should make an effort to do so, you'll meet some fantastic people and learn loads.
Until next year/next time people, thanks for a fantastic weekend, vape on, vape happy.


P.S. Is it next year yet ?

No doubt a few more well told funny stories to cycle into your amazing repertoire too.

  Well said Graham 

[Phoenixflame (Julie)]

Oh yes I forgot to thank Postmodern Smoking publicly for organising the t-shirts so Dave.

[Postmodern Smoking]

It was a pleasure arranging the T-shirts for such a lovely bunch of people (.... although less so when I remembered I was only taking hand luggage )
But glad that you all seemed to appreciated them.... a bit of personalised memorabilia from an epic and memorable Vapefest!
