It IS harder when your other half is still smoking, because you don't get all the benefits of giving up - the house still smells of smoke, there's still ash, and of course the stinkies are sitting there waiting for your moment of weakness! I know, because my husband is still smoking (although am away from home at the moment, and therefore free of cig smoke, although living with my Dad's cigar habit!). Despite all this, and only 4 weeks into vaping (was on e-cigs a week before my eGo Twist arrived, hence sig start date), I am determined never to go back to smoking. So far I've been very lucky with my kit - all I have is my basic starter kit of 2 x eGo Twist batteries, several T3 clearos, some MT3 clearos and a couple of CE4 clearos, plus a couple of extra batteries. OK, so the T3s and MT3s leak a little bit - but only a little bit, and not all of them, I just carry a tissue and wipe as I go Not had any major disasters so far. Sounds like you've been particularly unlucky with your experience!

I think it helped me to get away from tobacco flavours as early as possible - turns out I'm not that keen on the taste of tobacco after all - I far prefer coffee, chocolate donut and vanilla custard. It's made me dissociate the act of vaping from that of smoking, because the taste doesn't remind me of what I'm 'missing'. Also - had a bit of a revelation last night, whilst sitting happily by a roaring fire in a pub, vaping away. We were quite near the door, and MAH GAWD! the smell as people came in and out from the smoking area - it was really strong, and I definitely don't want to smell like that again ever! My non-and-never smoking mate laughed at me turning my nose up at it, he said he's heard so many ex-smokers comment on the smell - but we really can't smell it when smoking, can we?

Please don't be discouraged - you will find the kit that works for you, and you won't look back. You may - as I have - develop a craving for custard, though Best of luck!

Hi Shaz!

Hi Gasper! So glad you're on the way to recovery - that must have been very scary. Welcome to the wonderful world of vaping

The thing that inspired me to start vaping was the need to find some more money each month to feed the mortgage with - I didn't realise I'd end up with a new passion! I keep telling the husband that we're saving loads, but see the light of doubt in his eyes every time a new bit of vape mail arrives Probably a good thing we're in different countries for the next couple of weeks!

Am I right in thinking that the next meet will be sometime around May 4th? I know it's very early to be asking, but those of us wot live in other countries have to make arrangements well in advance. I know already I'll be here for that weekend (Dad has a Dr's appointment) so am hoping it's going to be then... I would hate to miss it!
