Silver rocks is a short walk from our villa, it's changed a fair bit in 4 years they've invested heavily year on year, very smart these days! The first time we went to Ambience the Prime Minister and his entourage were there having a dinner for some occasion or other, very posh as you say, and we've been to the veranda a while back too! We tend to eat in less glitzy company these days, usually around Lapta village unless it's the weekend. Small world though spikusThat's thehitman's thread well and truly hijacked! Sorry mate! I usually use unmarked unlabelled 30ml bottles of juice in a clear plastic bag in my hand luggage, I have an ego and Evod in my jacket for a stealth vape, but I put my mod and RBAs in my case with my charger. The batteries go in my hand luggage but last autumn in Jordan they x-rayed it and made me put it in the hold. I guess batteries depends on the airline, their website should say! Enjoy Turkiye. |

Do you ever visit Silver Rocks or JK's spikus, maybe The Almond, Cenap, or one of the places on 'the strip'  |

My dad did his national service in Cyprus sammy13 I think it would have been 1955 or 1956, he used to tell me he was shot in the leg there, he had a flesh wound scar on his thigh but I'm not certain he wasn't pulling my leg? There was certainly plenty of action during that period. We're going to spend a week in and around troodos in early July, I'm ashamed to say in near 10 years we've never visited ROC but we're really looking forward to it |

What heads are they Clivia I've got Iclear 16 heads from them for mrs poo which everyone raves about, but the FT versions are useless once they've been used, I wash them and dry burn but they always go pop |

Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus sammy13, the dark side  brilliant and very economical transport links to Turkey and the Middle East though so it'd be peevish not to explore. |

Thanks Greg, mines 'string' not lace, I'd be interested in seeing a photo of how the nest works, scrap that just realised were talking about a kayfun build not a Rose  I'll be ordering a ball of lace to keep the string company though |

You've banged on about that cotton lace so much you've broken me, just ordered a ball  Any tips for use in kayfun+ ? In the kayfun I just wrap a 3mm micro coil and thread the lace through doubled of folded in half. Then I pack about a 2-3cm length around the edge once the chimney body is on like a nest and the fit the chimney top. I've found that a 1.5mm coil works best with a single strand of lace and a 3mm coil with two strands This stuff is as simple as it gets. Is that cotton string blakey, for knitting with? I bought a ball about a month back but not used it yet, could you link a photo of the build please? |

What about an Ithaka, it's quite busy so I think it'd look great on a magneto, it's 22mm and it vapes brilliantly too. The taifun is great but it's also mahooosive!

It's equally pointless judging an entire, and massively diverse, country on the odd holiday there. There are parts of Istanbul you would be silly to explore. Same for Manchester. Enjoy your holiday mate, I'm sure you've earned it. I'm fortunate enough to have been able to visit what must be near thirty times because we've got a place in Cyprus to jump over from, we don't do beaches cos I can't stand sand so we've seen an awful lot yet only scratched the surface, but I know what you mean; there's areas in Merseyside I wouldn't care to chance either. |

One place I'd love to visit is the Topkap? Palace as it holds a large collection of Iznic pottery, the designs are beautiful I'll post some vape related Iznic pottery photos @munkymunky! we didn't visit to Topkapi last time, it's definitely on the itinerary. |

Well there's no answer to that which won't get me drawn into a debate I'm not prepared to have Sammy, needless to say I wouldn't ever judge a nation on the action of a group of individuals, but that's just me. Have a pleasant evening.

I own two of them they're a cracking attie, but yesterday I put a days worth of red Astaire through an aero tank and do you know what, it was a pretty damn good too! Perhaps Super-Shiny is on to something? Nah, I wouldn't part with mine for anything! The pair'll see my vaping days out I'm pretty sure about that. |

Thanks everyone I really appreciate it I should say my better half Lynn has done her year too! And she was a more determined smoker than me as well. It's been remarkably easy but I think the key to success was getting the right advice early on because those e lites were pretty rubbish really We dropped from 18 and 24mg ready made juice to 10mg mainly DIY, over the next year I'm going to drop the juice to 0nic and see what we feel like doing from there, we both love vaping but I'd like not to be dependant on the nic, even though there's enough in the freezer for about a decade Now what shiny treat to choose?!? Hmmm  |
