When I go to the Fasttech site the prices are in USD but when robby or others post a screen shot they're in GBP, am I missing a trick here? How do you get the prices in English money?? ??? Underneath the big BUY button on each item page is a (change currency) link.

Not at all. It is impossible for it to get any worse.

You are quite right of course. Mixing toxic chemicals together in order to heat them up and inhale their fumes is a serious business, with no room for levity or transparent hyperbole.

I don't think a shitload is too much, is it? That would be a huge shitload.
Dunno. The original juices had been left alone for over a couple of weeks. I'll leave this consolidated kentoffeenutscotchilla blend in the cupboard another couple of weeks, or perhaps forever.

I am learning from your painstaking precision.
I have just shoved a shitload of Kent into a whole bunch of stuff.
That should do the trick, eh?

Mine steeped for about 16 days. I installed EJMU but didn't use it. Didn't follow any recipe. Used concentrates willy-nilly and almost at random. Didn't measure properly. Didn't wear gloves or even sit at a table. Ran with scissors. I'm a desperado, me. No great surprise then that the whole enterprise was a thorough and comprehensive failure. Must try harder.

I tasted my very first batch of self-mixed juices tonight.
Dispiriting.
First of all, I neglected to label them, so had no idea what they were (yes, yes, I meant to, but forgot, and when I remembered, they all looked alike). Anyway, that's academic, because they all tasted of nothing in particular, except one, which had a bit of a clammy, rancid edge. Odd, because I seem to recall using a bit more concentrate than was recommended (no, I didn't write anything down either).
My first urge was to have a tantrum and hurl them down the toilet, but on second thought, I'll pour them all together into a 50ml bottle and add a substantial splosh of Kent flavouring. Good old dependable Kent: it can make a Sumo wrestler's jock-strap palatable.

Just the odd Bishop's Finger, Mr Therave, accompanied by a pipelet or two of exotic herbiage, a mushroom and black pudding butty, and six Mars Bars.

I chuck them in vodka overnight, let them dry, then dry-burn the crud off. Then when that no longer works, throw them away. I'd like to be able to re-wick them, but I'm too cack-handed and dithery.
Ah, you said threads, not heads. Pardon me, I'm a bit deaf.

I prefer cold, rainy weather. I'm a miserable git.

I aspire to the new-fangled biscuit tin system. Currently I use the tradtional everything thrown in an old cardboard box and shoved in a cupboard method. I suspect I have the opposite of OCD.

Great price. I don't know what these are like but the three CE6 clearos I had from there all had a horrible rubbery taste even after sterilizing. A pack of 7 CE6s arrived this morning. I've only tested four of them so far, and they're all reading between 5 and 6 ohms.
