People need to think about this. If they said they were going to do a study saying "we are going to prove eliquid is safe" then it would be claimed to be skewed from the start.
I think the wording is very clever.

I'd argue there never was nor will be a 'perfect' time.

Apologies Phil as it was me who arranged the venue so feel partly responsible.
Also apologies to those who found the venue not to their satisfaction or got bad feelings about it.
Obviously not a place to return to.
I was just trying to help out, sorry it never worked out.

Playing devils advocate here. Would anyone take the compromise that vaping as we know it would be left alone, no flavour bans, no limit on strength, no ban on refillable's or 2nd/3rd gen devices. No bans of use in pubs, restaurants, transport etc etc. Left exactly as it is now except that it would be taxed by 58.5%?

Here is my initial email to them: I'll be taking a copy of the correspondence in case we run into any issues, but they should be fully aware that we intend to vape. have you got a reply e-mail from them MarkS ? Replies:

Had a reply this morning from the venue saying it's all confirmed from 2pm and that the bar and amenities are fully accessible. It's all sounding a bit to good to be true at the moment, but maybe that's just the cynic in me talking. They did confirm the use of ecigs is ok? I know the meet got chucked out in Soho once, and we got asked to go outside at St Cristophers(luckily a warm evening). Here is my initial email to them: I'll be taking a copy of the correspondence in case we run into any issues, but they should be fully aware that we intend to vape.

The more the merrier. What's the capacity of the back bar? I remember it being quite big. If we could get a few MP's to come to the pub, that would be great! I'd love to take part in a bit of expenses fiddling with a MP. Up to 100 I believe Phil.

By the way well done @marks, pub had a shocking reputation 10 years ago, now a cracking little(quite big) boozer. Edit: as this is now confirmed, can we book the stripper for your b'day? To be fair I've never been there before, but after seeing the pics of the backroom bar and that you could reserve the area it looked perfect due to the amount of seating and the lay out. Hope it turns out to be as good as it looks. Merry Xmas everyone.

I'm up for the BBC and for the meet.. already telling customers we won't be trading on the 11th.
Will also send a few emails to venues myself tomorrow Alan. Been flat out this week so not had a chance yet.
