I'm not sure if anything I have is Raffle worthy. The last time I came to one of these things I did exchange an ePipe for a bottle of Cucumber juice and a 4Nine for a pint of Cider, but mostly I just gave stuff away - I can't remember who I gave my Caravela clone to...

Will try to come along.
Will bring a shoebox of shit a box of delights – juice and hardware, that I no longer need or want or bought in error, to exchange for crisps or beer or possibly just a smile...

if you drop the levels does it effect the taste and hit tho ? Yes - less throat hit. Yes - it affects the taste. Flavourless nic is not truly flavourless – try vaping it on it's own (diluted obviously) and you'll can taste it yourself. Actually it's quite a nice vape – a break from the sweet shop and the tobacconist... |

I always use Singapore post. Fastest from despatch was 9 days slowest 28 days (December period) This is my experience also. I'd say two weeks is the average. Occasionally it takes longer and on rarer occasions it's faster but I never order anything from FT if I'm in a hurry. It's worth checking the proposed dispatch date before placing you order and grouping your items into separate orders with similar dates if you want to speed things up and avoid unnecessary delays. Don't order anything in the Chinese New Year/Spring Festival Holiday. The dates vary from year to year, but it usually falls between late January and mid February– this year it's February 19 – and it goes on for two whole weeks. It tends to be a black hole for international orders and deliveries – best to wait until it's well and truly over, otherwise you could be waiting for months! |

 Well... I'm no expert... but as I understand it; the bridged version has some weaved mesh around a strand of silica wick – serving to diffuse the heat and provide an element for the juice to saturate. The unbridged version is simply a coil seated in a ceramic cup. I prefer the unbridged version. Dripping directly on the naked coil is a lot like dripping onto the heated element of your toaster (don't do this at home kids!). The disadvantage is that you have to drip more often. The advantage is that you can never really "burn" your atty – there's nothing you can do that can't be undone by rinsing it under a tap. Likewise it is the best way to sample different juices as it is quick and easy peasy to flush away even the most stubborn of eLiquid flavours - menthol, absinthe, bacon, etc. |

"Vape Jam UK is the first e-cigarette convention of its kind" – really? "Vape Jam UK is the first e-cigarette convention of its kind where you have to pay admission" would be more accurate.  |

I love my LR306s! Vapour Hut are a cheap and reliable source for both bridged and unbridged LR306s. Don't mess with those leaky drip tip thingies – If you're serious about your 306 dripping you should treat yourself to Grail 306 DCA from Atmistique (also available from Pink Mule) – it's the Rolls Royce of 306 Vapery! |

Regardless of the outcome of the poll, my mechanical mod will outlive your error prone fragile electrical gimcrackery.
In truth I can't be trusted with anything with micro-circuitry – I'll only drop it or accidentally put it in the washing machine with my laundry. Not even an ego is safe in my hands. Therefore I am forced to use fool-proof indestructible mechanical mods that are gorgeous to look at and a delight to use – oh, poor me!

No, no, no.
Sprouts require only shedding of the top layer (normally only four leaves), criss-crossing on the base with a sharp knife and then then steamed for fifteen minutes - ideally with a handful of crushed pecans and a dash of pomegranate syrup.

Thanks for the heads up!
I went a little over budget and purchased an AW 1850 battery for 98p.
Merry Christmas Mr Cropper.

Thanks to everyone who showed up and are sponsors and Bob for the raffle prizes. Also cheers to philmepowers for confusing the bar staff and enabling me to get my deposit back. Well I should hope so. You may recall that when I tried to link my purchase with "upstairs" the bar maid said it was "too complicated" and that you should consider your minimum spend met. Spanky (AKA Jaded) |

That's a shame – I was hoping there was a meet in London this week as I've just had a massive clearout and was hoping to gift a whole bunch of kit and juice over a pint or two...
