Has an approach ever been taken to address vaping with the Licenced Victuallers Association. Very much in both ours and their members livlihoods interest if the pub trade body approved.

It is something on our 'to do list' after our re-launch in May. We have been working on establishing a good internet presence and gaining the support of vapers, vendors and building a 'vaping pub' database during our first two years. The third year will see CAM-VIP in a reasonable position of authority as a serious organisation. It is only then (now-ish) that major organisations will take us seriously - watch this space

The CAM-VIP map has been updated today and now has 315 entries - please keep them coming

Link removed by Chrissie due to community walks maps throwing up a malware warning.

Ooh, thanks for that - there's two not far from me. If I still went out drinking I'd know where to go!

Gonna have to get some drinking done aren't I, problem is I only usually drink in pubs when away from Derby lol.

Alvo - you are now officially CAM-VIP's Head of Derby Operations

Does the title suit you?

Suits me Russell, don't think my Doctor would agree though, without going into detail here, I have some (minor) problems meaning I can't drink much, well I'm not supposed to anyway

My brother is a publican though, unfortunately the pubs he manages are north of the city, Alfreton, Chesterfield, Eastwood and those kind of areas, I'll show him some of your information on your web site.

Cheers Alvo,

I'm at the haematology consultant in the next hour after a recent virus caused abnormal lymphocytes and impaired Liver function. The hospital do not know about the virus or the fact that I've been a heavy drinker for 25 years. When they find out, I'm expecting to be told 'give up the booze today or else!' I'm more worried about that than what they think it may be (lymphoma), but that's how stupid I am!

Ah well, since we're sharing, my problem is the urinary tract, and kidneys... After a heavy session last year I got a really bad infection in both, now every time I drink more than a few the same pain returns, without the bleeding. Not too serious, I hope, and it seems I can manage it by drinking plenty of water in between drinks, as long as I remember

Thanks Chrissie

[Chrissie]

Anyone else come across vape friendly pubs we could put on our map?

The Exchange Bar TD9 asked and allowed

Rugby Club TD9 not asked but no problem

[lindsay]

I've vaped in loads of pubs, I've never asked, nobody has ever objected...I try to be fairly discreet though.

The Woodlands in Washington, Tyne & Wear

It's my local, although I don't go out much

We didn't ask if we could use e-cigs but we didn't get asked to stop by the staff who all saw us and we weren't challenged by any of the other drinkers either

As far as I know, this is the first Washington pub to be mentioned

There appears to be a problem with the community walks site that hosts the map I created & the one that CAM-VIP uses. Malware & other warnings are coming up when clicking on any of the links to them. So for now I've removed all links.
