In the next exciting instalment... If Sarsaparilla tastes like.... well Sarsaparilla and root beer is made from the Sarsaparilla plant, then why does root beer taste like Germoline. Mmmm... Germoline e-juice. Wild sarsaparilla or to give it it's correct name - Aralia nudicaulis, is a plant that grows wild in wooded areas in many eastern states of North America. The roots are the part of the plant most used.
The strain they use for Root Beer is special, it is more robust and a lot stronger than the normal strain, it grows a lot deeper and has many more roots, it is often protected by Unicorns that have become addicted to "fizzy sarsaparilla" as the first stage of the recovery program recommended by SA (Sarsaparillas Anonymous). This.... as I am sure you can appreciate, makes it notoriously difficult to harvest....
The labourers used to harvest the root have to pull it up by hand, this maintains the root system in one piece and maximises profit.
However, they obtain may abrasions and lacerations from this harvesting process (and also from the overzealous and protective Unicorns), they have to resort to the use Germoline to protect and disinfect the above mentioned cuts.
And, as you know.... you can never get rid of the smell or taste once it is on something !
Simples !
Omg that just made me I love the taste of Root Beer and am yet still to forgive McDonalds for no longer selling it. I am however very grateful that they had Germolene available to treat the lacerations. I couldn't possibly imagine it tasting as wonderful had they only had TCP available.

I don't know why that's so funny to me, maybe it's the little pockets! I love the fact they do extra large.. A Great Dane or Rotweiller is gonna look a right hard b*stard in that! Wonder if they're button or zip fly. Be a pain for "fido" having to mess around with a button fly every time they see a tree.

Yep.. What ^^^^ they all said. Not to mention the fact that I'm also finding myself agreeing with what others have said. Self made Red Astaire tastes nicer than the pre-made. A 10ml concentrate will give you 50ml of juice and that's at 20%. Many only mix at 10-15% so even better. Plus 10ml of concentrate is cheaper than 10ml of pre-mix and basically you need a measuring cylinder or syringe and bottles (which you probably have from previous purchases.) Other stuff can be helpful, but not essential.

The bottom line is, there are many good retailers out there. Publish the good ones! But don't hesitate to likewise the jokers. Merry Xmas I totally see what you mean by this but it would be an interesting tactic with the Chinese vendors such as FastTech and VaporBreak. Thread after thread of who has just ordered whatever from FT/VB...And thread after thread of complaints of slow delivery/lost delivery/lack of customer service. They could appear top of the heap on both lists!!

I started this thread to find out what other people had problems with regarding atomisers, and it has been a great insight into how we have differing opinions. Never a truer statement. For every "expert" you-tube review saying for example (with the Aspire)...Is this the best clearo ever? There will be 50 posts on various forums suggesting its possibly the leakiest/most unreliable* device ever made. In the same way, for every 10 people who love the iClear/Protanks/Other* (DELETE AS APPROPRIATE) there are probably the same number who hate them.

Morning Liz. I'm assuming you are talking about shop bought juice rather than self made? If they sell something around 11mg that will do the trick. Some people type faster than me.

Good News. Just had my scan and the Technician said there is No Aneurysm , nothing abnormal in my stomach! I am so relieved. That's absolutely brilliant news.

I have been a long time convert to iClears. Oddly enough I have also always had an intermittent leaking problems with the 30 (especially if filled to the full 3ml) and need to wipe the battery contact occasionally. It's never been bad enough to put me off them though. Meanwhile the 16 and the 30S never ever leak on me. While we are on the subject of Iclears. Is it just me or is the 30 a much tighter draw than the 30S? I actually like the tighter draw which is why I'm not truly feeling the same love for the 30S. (Though it won't stop me ordering more.)

Could anyone tell me how this works as i aint gotta clue. Sa i was to buy £150 of stuff from abroad and it was pulled at customs, how do you about paying import duties, do they contact you telling you parcel has been pulled and import duty needs paying or is it a case of keeping tabs on your parcel by tracking it and it would come up as duties owed on it or summink along those lines and how much are import duties, question questions i know lol, but appreciate the help guys, thx. Thank you. It's something that I had meant to ask myself. My order wasn't particularly large and it all ended well. So I was also curious about the possible pitfalls of a larger order. Thank you also Perpetua for explaining it.

With the above and of course your toffee/caramel you are only a Banana Cream concentrate short of Banoffee Cream. You obviously haven't heard. But Banoffee Cream is why ecigs were invented.
