Scylla,
I love my crocs, I never take them off when on holiday. They do as sandals, slippers, paddling in etc. BUT....they are authentic crocs. Are yours? I have found it does make a difference. I know they look like glorified plastic sandals (which I wore as a child, 5 of us, with not much money and toes cut out when they got too small to make them last longer!), but they are so comfy.
Hope the arnica did it's work.

Everybodies payments received OK. Thank you so much to all for paying so promptly.
(Makes me more inclined to organise a bulk order again.....???!!)

Aha...problem solved, Scylla. Email showed up - in my eBay email, because that's the one I put on the invoices if you wanted to pay by Paypal. I thought you'd sent it to my personal email address. All is well.
(I have half a dozen gmail accounts for various purposes. Gets a bit complicated sometimes!)

I'm finding it ok. I got 5 sheets of the stuff, it will last me forever and a day! I used a bit today, with my LR attie and it's been perfect. It is a bit "fatter" than the stuff already in the cart, but I squished it in and it's been fine. I chucked all my old fillers out, I'd washed them a couple of times and they fell to bits.
Yes, you can place an order, but don't do it yet, have a look through and write it down for now, or save the links.

I've had 2 bank transfers so far come through - Scylla and Chrissie. And 2 Paypal payments - Buck and Raggy. I'm sure the others will appear in due course, I think it depends on which bank to which bank for speed.
So all in all, a good way to buy and share and mostly painless!

But have you seen the size of the battery packs necessary for those items, Chrissie? We have a cordless drill on the park, it's a big square battery pack.
If I was thinking of vaping, and had a pacemaker, I would visit my GP, or the Cardiac unit where I was fitted with it, and ask? Maybe you could suggest this to the lady next time you visit Tescos? Or anybody visiting their GP could ask as a matter of research?

I don't know too much about it, Lolli, but I wouldn't think so. There would be so many "normal" everyday household items that you wouldn't be able to come into contact with? Transistor radios? Digital cameras? And what about the security scans in shops? The ones that bleep if you go through with an unpaid for purchase?
The British Cardiac Patients Association says - Ordinary household electrical equipment will not affect your pacemaker. This includes microwave ovens as long as they are in good working order. If your job means that you come into contact with strong electrical fields – eg arc welding, diathermy, high power radio or TV transmitters, or direct contact with car ignition systems, then you should take advice from the pacemaker technician before returning to work.
To live in todays world, I am sure the technology of pacemakers has kept up with all other technology. I err on the side of saying it's bunkum and ecigs are fine.

Oops Scylla, forgot to send you hugs....(((hugs))). I hope you are not too sore. I'd have been exactly the same after a disaster of any kind - get me some nicotine - quick!
I didn't receive any email from you....wonder where it went?

Thanks everybody for those comments and payments. And nobody mentioned disasters with their orders - thank goodness!
I'll start a new thread about ordering again, I'm waiting to see if my sister likes vaping, so that I can get her some spares. I ordered a Riva for her, but it's not arrived yet, hopefully tomorrow it will, so in a couple of weeks should be good.
Get your lists ready folks - you can't say you haven't had enough warning then!

Yeah, it was the atties from TW that had the gunk. I poured very hot (nearly boiling) water over them. Put them on kitchen roll and left overnight. I still didn't have much success with them and they didn't seem to work very well at all. If I persevered for a couple of days (DYING for a good vape in the meantime) they functioned after a fashion. I resported to using old ones until my order arrived from Eastmall and now using the LR510's which are utter bliss!
For those that don't like LR's and find them too strong, maybe the normal 510's from Eastmall would be better than those from TW?
I will be ordering from Eastmall again in a week or two, just to make sure I have a good stock of everything.

I've just had word (and payment) that one order has arrived correctly! Hopefully most of you will also receive yours today. I just ask that you PM me to let me know they've arrived, and that payment in one form or another is on it's way. Otherwise I'll lose track of what is where and when......thanks.

Hi Lilac,
No, not initially. It was early morning, I was driving my daughter to the bus stop to get the school bus. (We lived out in the sticks.) I commented that I had a funny feeling in my throat, and thought I was getting a cold/sore throat. When I got back to the house, this burning pain came on. As I said, I thought - uh oh, I have an ulcer again. (Had one a couple of years before that but cured.) I drank a pint of water. The burning got worse, right in the centre between my breasts. No other symptoms. I sat at the computer and looked up all I could find about heart attack, but nothing that said the symptoms I had.
I thought I would get ready for work, and went to shower. I went into the bedroom and Alex woke up and looked at me and asked if I was alright. I said, no not really, but I thought I would be. He told me to lay on the bed. As soon as I did that, the pain in the middle of my chest got hotter and hotter and hotter, and I started sweating profusely which is the point at which he went to phone. (As I said he had to come back in to ask the number as 911 wasn't working!). The pain got worse, the sweating got worse. I ended up naked on the bed in a pool of sweat. You could literally see it pouring out of my pores.
Then the ambulance arrived. They shoved an aspirin under my tongue which was still there when I got to hospital due to lack of saliva. The next thing I know, I sort of "jump" on the bed, which I later realised was the de-fib being applied. Then I was awake and the GP arrived (policy in Scotland to alert GP who comes and gives warfarin ASAP and morphine.)
Then they put me in the wheelchair and carried me out, at which point I threw up all over my carpet, due to the morphine. The trip to hospital was fine, the stay in hospital was fine. Needed abit of cream on the burns from the de-fib pads. Had an angiogram which was very interesting to watch and feel. No treatment, no stents, no bypass or anything.
Sorry if I said too much there....not sure what you need or want to know.
Kath
