Oh, and when I said we dont "do" motorways....that extends to those mini-motorways..what are they called?? Ah, duel carrageways So, a route with no motorways, no duel carrageways, and well-lit counrty roads, if possible? Round-a-bouts are a bit confusing too. so, a route with no motorways, no duel carrageways, no dark lanes, and no round-a-bouts. Hellecoptor anyone??

I might be coming! My Daughter (who vapes also) has just offered to drive us! Im all Bit scared though, lol, she only passed her test a few weeks ago, but having said that shes already a far better driver than her scatty Mum. Now we just have to sort out a route that involves no motorway driving...I trust her, but not THAT much What actually happens at the meet? Are there vendors there? Swopsies? Or do we all just try other peeps juices and equipment to see if we like other stuff? And do we drink, and drink, and drink? I like a good booze-up Great news smokey. Well we all bring lots of stuff. Talk rubbish for a few hours, have a few drinks, well a lot of drinks and just have a great time. Yes swaps happens. Bring what you dont like and help yourself to what is on the swap table pretty much. You can try other peoples juices. You can have a nosey at there equipment. I am actually working on a vendor from bristol but i have had no reply to my email so not sure if anything will happen there. All in all just a dam good funny night. Have you seen the pics of our first meet smokey? Sent from my Galaxy Note 2 Yep I saw the pics, looked like a fun night Will sort something out...REALLY want to come!!

Just had a look where Id have to drive...Im such a rubbish driver at the best of times, so dont think could do it, and besides, I wouldnt be able to drink if I had to drive home again, and wouldnt be able to stay cuz of my dogs. Gutted now Any meets near Badminton by any chance? Lots of lovely pubs and places to stay I can really understand this, I'm a terrible driver too I've been through my test 20 years and still have no confidence to drive very far or on strange roads and my parking is a whole other story Is there any way you could use public transport? Glad its not just me Karma Ive only been driving for 35 years though, so Im still getting into the swing of it My daughter is SO much better than me already, obviously a natural, where-as I find it hard to walk in a straight line without knocking into things/people, yet alone drive! My insurance premiums are MASSIVE, ive had so many knocks! Last time I tried to park in a layby in the dark (dont ask,lol) I reversed back into a ditch! Had to call the local Farmer to pull me out. Public transport probably wouldnt work, Im in a little village and buses are a rare sight here. Now, if anyone was passing through here on the way and had 2 spare seats...well. That would be ideal Otherwise, looks like Daughter and I will try the drive, without motorways....we may get there for last orders

'Organise it and they will come'. Sage advice given to me by ukric when I was asking if there were any West Yorkshire meets. So I did, and we had a great time last month and now have a monthly meet set up. All you need to do is find a vape friendly venue and advertise it on here and ukv. My organization skills are 3rd on my list of stuff Im crap at, following closely behind driving and sense of direction , Ivebeen told I shouldnt even be on the road BUT I would try an organise something, if I thought enough people would be interested? For people who drive like normal people (ie not me), I guess my village is easy to get too, and surrounding villages, its near the motorway. Also theres lots of hotels/inns/b&bs etc here for those who like to drink too much Mmmmm. Am I capable I wonder ??? Lots of local ales and cider too , Im told the PIGS EAR is a cotswold favorite

Prestleigh not too far from you (Nr Shepton Mallet) on 30th November ! (40 miles) I live in Brecon and I'm going ! 2.5 hr drive for me and it's great fun watching the mad ones Ah, but ballsy, your probably an excellent driver and expert map-reader I, alas, am neither I hate driving and I only ever get where Im going by sheer luck, I get lost within ten minutes of leaving home in any direction, lol. So even if I did manage to navigate myself to the meet, the home-ward journey in the dark would eventually find me 60 miles in the wrong direction I really am that bad.

I REALLY do. Can anyone let me know if theres ever a meet near Badminton, or surrounding areas, or Chippenham, or Chipping Sodbury, or Yate, or anywhere in South Glos. Where I live in the Cotswolds is full of lovely ideal venues, hotels pubs b&bs, villages and lovely surroundings. The village I live in has a little pub with an eccentric lanlord who is always interested in my vaping.... ideal venue??? I dont expect a venue to fall into my lap though, so if anyone knows of or is thinking of sorting a meet out, within 10 miles or so of Badminton or any of the above or anywhere in South Glos, PLEASE PLEASE let me know? You owe it to me on my vaping journey , I need to feel accepted, that Im a fully-fleged vaper. Only a "meet" can fill that void. Please help me feel Im not alone. FANKYOO

Lol I keep caliing them Palma violets dont I, its parma violets is it? I got it from The Alchemists Cupboard, its called Little Violet Sweeties but it says in the write-up that that it tastes just like a certain well known little violet sweetie, I guess they have to be careful what they call it, trade-mark red tape probably? But yep, its just like sucking on one of those not-to-be-mentioned sweeties, and is GORGEOUS When I first tried it (didnt let it steep, no patience) I wasnt sure about it, it tasted a bit "soapy", but a week later....yum. Really really moor-ish, Im on it right now, and its got an added bonus of leaving the room smelling lush. Always a bonus when you have 2 flatulent bull terriers Ahh the shoes! Shoes are my downfall (sometimes literally, I have a pair of 5 inch heels, they are lethel when Ive had a bit of vino ) Unfortunately I dont own a pair like the ones in my avatar . I can dream though

Thanks so much everyone, Im well on the road to recovery now. Its amazing when it all finally clicks into place isnt it? What a difference it makes when the right equipment (for you) is used. I LOVE LOVE LOVE the whole vaping game now, and even juices I didnt like before taste great in the SMOK. I still dont like any of the tobacco juices much though, Ive tried a few for when I might feel like a rolly, but nothing is quite right. I tried Black Cat, but didnt like it much, a bit too liquoricey for me I found? And Rye 4 didnt hit the spot either. Ive just tried Apple Cider Tobacco too but found it quite harsh, even with the spinner turned right down. Same for Virginia. Its odd, but when I started vaping, I only thought Id want to vape tobacco juices, but I really dont like them. But it seems my tastebuds are changing all the time, I was hooked on GVC for a while, but at the moment Im finding it a bit sweet....will go back to it at a later date I think. Yet Im liking Manily Vanilly ??? At the moment Im vaping Apple Pie and Custard, which I hated in an evod ??? ??? Cocomel is still my all-day vape for now, but I lost my last bit when I topped up lastnight, tipped the SMOK up after filling it and lost the lot so today its been a mix of Palma Violets, St Clements and Apple Pie n Custard...sweet tooth over-load ...untill my new Cocomel comes. My only concern with having a glass clearo is that Im clumsey. REALLY clumsey. Ive dropped it a few times already but so far it seems tough enough to with-stand me Ive not wanted a rolly at all though, not once So to anyone reading this who may be struggling, keep going! Try different combinations of equipment, experiment, cuz when it all comes good, the rest just falls into place. Find what works for you, and never ever give up, because if I can do it, anyone can. Im off to the pub tomorrow night with no worries at all that I might want to join my mates outside for a ciggy. I truely believe I wont. Vaping is THE BOMB

Hello peeps Small update from smokeybebe-land. ive been struggling, yet again, and my on-off-on-off journey with smoking looked to be totally on, for good I put the spinners away, and resigned myself to the fact that I was a failure Then I was very ill and got septi-wotsit ( I cant spell it, but its blood poisoning basically) and was in hospital for weeks. "Bring in my make-up bag and my little box of spinners, evods and juices" I told my Daughter...if I couldnt smoke I could at least vape, right? 3 weeks of vaping in hospital (and converting a couple of nurses and quite a few patients ) and I thought "thats it, Im home and dry! No more stinkies for me!) WRONG... first day out of hospital, and I have a roll-up. Made me feel proper sick it did... but stupid as I am, I had another. And another... Anyway, I told myself off, and decided that what I needed was to BUY SOME VAPE STUFF I already had loads of evods,and my Spinners , so I looked through a few web pages, and decided to try a SMOK PYREX ARO clearo. I bought 2, and some different juices (one that tastes like palma violets, yum yum, and St Clements.) The difference the SMOK PYREX clearos made was AMAZING!! A totally different vaping experience! I dunno if its cuz its glass and not plastic, or what, but I LOVE THEM! Ive just ordered some more, and heads for them, and Ive not had, or wanted, or even really thought about stinkies for 9 days now! I truely KNOW that this is it for me now, finally. The combination of the Spinners and the Smok tank is without doubt the one for me. Along with my cocomel, the palma violets and st clements, this little bit of equipment is changing it all for me. I never knew that just changing one little clearo for another could make such a huge difference. Glass is the way to go!!! I get it now..
