I asked very early on, our HR and Building services people. They had not been asked before, had no legislation and allowed me to use the Shift Crew Room. This was announced to me by my boss, who said it was because I would give the impression I was smoking - cant see how 3 inches of dragon emossed battery can give that impression though. That said, at night I just sit at the desk and vape because there are only a few of us in, but by day, I stealth in the loo, go to the crewroom or evangelise to the smokers.

Just about to reach my 10,000 cigarettes avoided stage. Well pleased.

So glad you clear that up with Stansted. So going on my other posts. I can take a bus to Romford vaping, vape on the platform, vape on the train to Liverpool Street and then Stansted. Finally enjoying a vape at the Weatherspoons being boarding to Alicante, where I will vape in arrivals. How civilised is that? All approved by TFL, Greater Anglia, Weatherspoons and AENA. Just Easyjet to work on.

Have to look at Romford Market for an outlet with the amount of e-ciggers from this side of town.

We now have Greater Anglia:

Being peed off with no one knowing if it was AOK to vape on London Transport, I wrote to the Mayors Office.

Here is the reply:

Dear Mr White



Thank you for your email to the Mayor about electronic cigarettes.



As you can appreciate, the Mayor receives a significant amount of correspondence. Therefore, it‘s not possible for him to reply personally to them all.



Transport for London (TfL) is the body responsible for developing and implementing the Mayor's transport policies, and your email was referred to us to reply on his behalf. I'm sorry that we didn't get back to you in time on this occasion.



I can confirm that it is illegal and against TfL by-laws to smoke a lit cigarette on our network, including our trains, ticket halls and platforms.



However, passengers who wish to use an electric cigarette, which is neither lit nor discharges smoke are currently not prohibited from doing so.



I hope this information is of assistance, and that I’ve been able to clarify our position on the matter.



Thank you once again for contacting us.



Yours sincerely
