Ditch Windows altogether and switch to something like Ubuntu a linux based operating system
Made the switch over a year ago not looking over my shoulder anymore for those little pesky windows viruses and spyware

How did you get on in getting the distilled water? Checked today with 2 of our local Farmacias and no they dont do it but noticed our Mercadona has got some which I find totally bazarre Decided to go for bottled water & boil it instead of distilled water. Just going to pour out 100ml of VG at a time as and when required then add 10ml of boiled bottled water to that. Leave the rest in the freezer undiluted. Perpetua said if I stand the litre bottle of VG in boiled water for a while it will be easy to pour into my little bottles for storing so that's what I'm going to do tomorrow. I've got some of the small bottles ready for putting the liquids into, the others will be ready tomorrow so I'll be re-bottling it all then. Got my funnel ready and waiting  Good advice from Perpetua as always  |

Well made it down to the Chino last Thursday toots and came away today (after a bit of haggling) with 24 amber glass 100ml bottles for just €11 - happy days!!  Hahaha, good on yer Steve. I ended up with 6 x 200ml bottles filled with red Rioja wine for €8,66 - well at least my 'ol man gets something out of it  Hey do you know if the Spanish pharmacies stock distilled water coz that's what I'm gonna be looking for tomorrow? Need it for diluting the litre of VG arriving this week. I'm hoping not to come up against a brick wall trying to find some. How did you get on in getting the distilled water?

Im lucky here on the Costa Blanca our local Chino has 1 English girl who speaks Spanish and Chinese - off to have a chat with her I think over the weekend Without the wife  Wow, wish she was over here Steve, would make life a lot easier if we could communicate with these Chinkies. We have to try using sign language and more often than not they take us through to the end of the warehouse and show us something completely different to what we were trying to ask for. It gets very frustrating and infuriating. You'd think they would at least learn Spanish whilst living here so we could talk to them in the local language  Well made it down to the Chino last Thursday toots and came away today (after a bit of haggling) with 24 amber glass 100ml bottles for just €11 - happy days!! |

good idea you never know until you try Yeah, only problem with these chinese places is they are sooooooo big it takes you absolutely ages to find anything specific, and you can't ask them if they stock a particular item coz they neither speak English nor Spanish, just Chinese, and I flippin well do not speak Chinese and have no intention to learn it either  Im lucky here on the Costa Blanca our local Chino has 1 English girl who speaks Spanish and Chinese - off to have a chat with her I think over the weekend Without the wife |
