Wasn't me that mentioned Home Bargains, but it's good to know if I'm caught short as it were, I have a branch of them much closer than my B&M shops!
eCigWizard do a nice blueberry actually, bit strong on it's own though so I don't have it too often, could maybe do with a cakey sort of base so it's more like a muffin or something!

They have returned slightly today, still not 100% though. I've bought some menthol juice, had a tester toot at the shop and it nearly blew my head off

Thumbs up indeed! Really pleased! I've now got my twist back, OH has his usual one replaced and now I have my back up again. All is well in the world!

This is effing RIDICULOUS, must stop spending money I don't have!! Anyway, yeah, after visiting eCigWizard, I'd heard of a little stall in another shopping centre in Peterborough so we popped there on the way back home. There were 2 chaps working there - both incredibly nice and friendly and knew their stuff. I overheard one chap explaining them all to someone who wanted a starter kit and he kept it simple and easy to understand and offered various options for them, for someone that didn't know a thing about them he really understood as it was explained so well. Anyway (may pop a vendor review for them here later) they sell Liberty Flights juices, buy 3 get 1 free which is always nice. Had a toot of them all and they are all divine (apart from the Irish Coffee, that's for OH, I hate coffee!). I got the menthol after everyones advice so I can nuke my poorly tastebuds! I shall do proper reviews for them once I get to them, I actually have a choice of juices now!!

All sorted!
The lovely girl who served us last week was there, and remembered us (always nice!) she screwed both batteries into a multimeter thingy and they were indeed dead, all exchanged with no problem and we have a fresh 3 month guarantee with both.
Brilliant!

I do like my evods!
Although saying that, it's all I've ever used so I'm thinking of buying an iClear to see the difference of a top coil

Hello! My first review, oooooh, get me! Firstly, to make things clear this is my personal review of the juice and doesn't represent thoughts or opinions of AAEC. This review will be posted to other forums too.So, yes, the much talked about Custard Cream! I paid for this juice, £7 for 15ml and £3 postage. £10 total.
The bottle was packaged exceptionally well, individually wrapped in bubble wrap, in a ziplock bag which was again covered in bubble wrap, good peace of mind for me knowing it was glass. It also comes with a glass pipette dropper which as someone with disabilities like me is perfect, there are other plastic juice bottles I simply can't squeeze, they are way too hard.
I ordered 18mg, and as you can see from my pictures it's 40/40 which would equate to 50/50. You can also see everything that should be on a bottle is. Tactile Warning, and the poison warnings etc. Do bear in mind the dropper that comes with the bottle is NOT child proof, so make sure you follow all your usual safety standards if you keep the dropper cap on.
So, out of the packet I was greeted with a lovely looking bottle which was sealed with a child proof cap. This I *really* struggled with, I nearly gave up and waited for OH to wake up so he could try and open it for me, but me being impatient me gave it a bit of a pry with a little nail tool of mine and got it open. I don't think it was supposed to be this way, wondering if it had been caught on the thread wrong, I've not heard of any other reports of this and ofcourse you have the obvious problem that due to my ME when it comes to strength I'm a big fat woofter.
Stuck my nose right over the bottle and I'm instantly hit with a delicious, rich, yet soft smell. No mistaking what it should be, I could have shoved a proper custard cream biscuit under my nose and I'd have not known the difference.
Filling my Evod was super easy with the dropper, I popped in a brand new 1.8 head and put it on my ego twist at the lowest 3.2 voltage.
Now, bearing in mind I still have a bit of 'vapours tongue' there was still absolutely no doubt in this world it was a custard cream biscuit in my mouth. It wasn't just a normal custard cream though, this was your posh range supermarket type biscuit. Think Tesco Finest or Sainsbury's Taste the Difference. The biscuit is the stronger flavour of the two but not overbearingly so. You definitely get the creamy vanilla filling taste come through too and I think the ratio is spot on. The biscuit lingers after exhale too, but it's not over powering, just sweet enough to tap your tongue in your mouth and extend the flavour that bit longer.
Vapour production is great, thick, but not plumes coming out, just right. Obviously on higher voltages this would increase but on most juices I seem to personally prefer the lowest voltage.
Throat hit is spot on for me, it's not a wham, but it's smooth and satisfactory from a bottom coil clearo.
As I've been writing this, my OH has just come in from outside and said 'Cor, you walk in here and all you can smell is custard creams' so even your house will smell nice!
Overall 10/10 for me, not too rich or sickly, but sweet enough to satisfy my huge sweet tooth and for me personally, it could be an ADV I think, but I am a cakey/biscuit person, it may not be an ADV to some.
TL;DR - Buy it, buy it now, for the love of biscuits, buy it now.

I hope your recovery is as swift as can be Phil. Another vote for movicol, I have to use that as I'm permanently on tramadol, codeine,paracetamol and ibuprofen for pain and they do not-so-wonderful things to my tummy. So glad you can vape while you're in there!

2 batteries down, my last battery died briefly, but that was fixed by unscrewing the base of my evod and finding the head still in the tank ??? So now, to top off the stressballs of that it seems I have acquired the famous 'vapours tongue' I can't taste shit, nothing, nada, zip. Not even the tart and tangy rhubarb coulis is there This is the first time in 20 days I have felt the real temptation to roll a fag and smoke it. Thankfully no baccy or menthol filters in the house so it ain't gonna happen but if there had of been, I may have given in to that temptation just to give the day a big FU. Hmph.

That makes me shudder, the crap i went through replacing faulty Xbox's drove me mad, ring of death galore I was lucky, I waited a while to buy one, after buying the Ps1 and xbox at launch. Oh, I also have a wii as well, but I've never tried a wiiU, I look forward to trying yours Sassy Most definitely!! Zombie U is fantastic, lots of and - one of the best games to fully utilise the gamepad.
