I was wondering about some sort of case. I suppose it would still bounce about in my bag though, so maybe best idea is to keep the cart off while it's being carried.
I just wondered if everyone else got a mouthful of liquid or if I should be carrying it a certain way up. Or maybe I'm just filling my carts too full.

Yes, I wanted to whip it out sitting outside the coffee shop and look all casual and sophisticated. I ended up furtively spitting into a tissue!

'In his will, he has stated that he wants 20 cigs and a lighter to be buried with him.'

Lettie I couldn't help laughing at your dad's comment, it's the sort of annoying thing I've said myself just to persuade people to leave me alone!

I've got a fit, healthy, non-smoking GP who has been gently chiding me about my smoking for 20 years, but in a very good-humoured way. I've always been very fit in spite of smoking, but I had a really bad chest infection in the winter and the cough has lingered on and on. When I saw him a few weeks ago and said I was thinking of trying ecigs he said he would be pleased if I gave it a try because anything was better than the real thing.
He believes that the available stop-smoking aids are only successful with the minority of people who truly want to stop anyway, and that ecigs shouldn't be condemned out of hand, because they might succeed where other things fail.
As he said, we can't know yet that ecigs are safe, but we know the others are not.

Chrissie, you're so kind the way you go hunting for good deals for people! Thank you for that link, it's the best deal I've seen so far.
Thanks pixietricks for your tips too.

OOOOH! Just noticed I've got a karma. Have I done something good? (Sorry to go off-topic, I got all excited.)

I've been enjoying my 901 so much that I thought I'd get another one now in case it gets lost/broken etc, and maybe try something different. Just doing some research so that I can make another good choice.
I still like something that looks and feels like the cigs I'm used to and I was wondering whether to try a 510 since that seems to be another one you recommend here.
My 901 has automatic batteries. I notice lots of ecigs have manual ones, are there any particular pros and cons?

First of all, hello to Jo and a big thank you to Jaki. It was so kind of you to offer to send some liquid if mine didn't arrive. Happily James turned out just as reliable as you all said, and mine was here Wednesday morning (well, afternoon, we don't get our post here until about 1pm!)
I said here on Wednesday that I was already quite impressed. I got through 7 'real' cigs that day, and so far only 3 today. What has really delighted me is that I've found today that when I feel like a smoke I reach for my ecig although it lives side by side at the moment with my packet of cigarettes.
I've still got lots to learn, and some stocking-up to do, but so far so very good.
I've been wondering today - would an ecig set off those smoke alarms that have been put in certain no-smoking zones?
