Err.... Sorry - messages - about 5 from different people have just shown up so I certainly wasn't ignoring you millerkev - I thanked you for your kindness and was coming on tonight to send you the money - do you still want it? Am a bit confused as I say I didn't see the subsequent messages until just now  Let me know what you want me to do? Gah, I've been made to feel horrible now and it was certainly not my intention to be rude. |

Thanks all Turns out I did get my order from freedomvape - it's my fasttech order I'm still waiting for!! Have ordered some custard cream from MrsLord is it? My next drama is that softmint from joosejuice is no longer available unless i'm being spectacularly thick (entirely possible). Drama drama drama gapy360 have tried some RA this morning and it's doing OK. Will get through the rest of this clearomiser and see how it goes. If it's still rough on my throat you're very welcome to it! |

Hi Have stupidly come to the end of my gifted bottle of GVC without stocking up so am in a bit of a panic as it's really become my go to flavour.. So some recommendations? I've tried lots from juice joose (or is it the other way round) and despite steeping for a good few weeks, none of them apart from the soft mint has really struck me - I've tried (from all over the place) Coffee - never can find one strong enough Cafe brasiliano - quite nice but can't do it all day Jack the ripple - not really for me Caramel - nice - decent 2nd place to butterscotch Butterscotch - decent 2nd place to GVC Red Astaire - loved it to begin with now it really burns my throat Cherry - blergh Gingerbread - double blergh Irish cream - blergh Strawberries and cream - blergh Belgian waffles - blerh Am happy by the way to donate any of the blergh flavours to a good cause?! Oh and also I ordered some butterscotch from the chap in Spain (sorry can't remember his name and am too lazy to look up my emails) about 3 weeks ago - is that normal delivery time or might it have got lost?! Would love some more flavour recommendations although I realise that it's all down to personal taste Thanks |

I've moved places now to sit opposite someone as my laptop needed charging so have stopped as it's a little too obvious. Bit more juice int he battery and I'll move back to my dark little corner!

Am I allowed to Vape on Virgin trains?!
Actually I don't much care as they've told us we're going via the West midlands on the way to Cheshire and adding 45 minutes to my journey. Thoroughly enjoying puffing away and 'swallowing' the vapour!

I got the mini protank 2 - NOT the one with the changeable tip. Will have a look at those plastic thingies though thanks I've gone back to the Iclear 16's which I love a lot but which whizz through the juice big style! |

Thanks for all the replies - lots of stuff to go at there. I've ordered a couple of tobacco juices just to have on standby. Also yesterday morning I did the putting it off putting it off thing and managed to delay the first (and only ) of the day. This morning I'm harrassed as hell and reached straight for a stinkie but am vaping red astaire now and telling myself it's a blackcurrant lemsip to fool my brain into thinking its an OK flavour first thing! |

Hi Just to add another side (THE other side I suppose!) I bought one of these a couple of weeks ago and it really didn't suit me at all. No question it was a quality piece of kit but I HATED the metal mouthpiece - clacked against my teeth and the vape felt very different - quite cold. Just didn't suit me at all and it's consigned to a little box somewhere. In fact - do you want it? I shan't be using it again I'm sure of that |

Karma Thanks that's a good shout - if only it wasn't my daughter's 10th birthday sleepover this weekend - there will be NO RELAXING AT ALL!! So - have looked at the L and B liquid - my stinkies of choice are L&B lights - might give them a go. Given that 24mg hits the spot through the day and evening, should I try a higher strength for first thing?

Sorry yes, currently vaping 18 and 24mg I think that yes I possibly am not quite ready to ditch them completely - it still gives me the fear a bit, after all, they've been my 'friends' for many many years! It's all psychological I'm sure but it's really bugging me. Shall buy myself a new clearomiser and wallop some 24mg tobacco in there for tomorrow morning and see how that goes... |

Thanks folks - I've tried some coffee flavours but they've never been strong enough in flavour - just tasted a bit mucky! Quite liked cafe brasiliano but it was very definitely an evening vape for me... Would love a recommendation for a good strong coffee as yes, that might do the trick.
And actually - tobacco - I still have some kicking around maybe try that. Neeeeeeeeeeed some new clearomisers - have given up on the evods, leaky and faffy and gurgly and rubbish (for me) and HATE the metal tip on my mini protank - shop shop shoppity shop that's all i'm bloody doing these days!!

Hi
Am getting really frustrated with my inability to ditch the morning stinkies... I know I shouldn't beat myself up but I am - so there! I have thanks mainly to the good folks of this board found 2 or 3 flavours that I'm happy puffing on all day long but I just can't face them first thing in the morning. So I have a fag at the back door, then I make a coffee and have another fag and by the time I've left for work I've had about 5 and it's really only when I'm in the car on the way to work that I start vaping.
In the scheme of things I've gone from 40 a day to 5 or so which I can accept is pretty darn good but the fact that I have a packet of fags about the place means that now I'm thinking ooh, I'll nip out at lunchtime and have a fag, then I might have a couple of an evening, just because they're there. They all (even the first one in the morning) taste VILE and I'm actually quite happy all day and evening vaping away.
Someone suggested just not buying the fags - I am a weak and lily-livered person who yesterday when I had none went to the local spar shop in pyjamas (with coat over! but still, the shame!) to buy a pack of 10....
So - what flavours are good for you in the morning?
Have settled on red astaire, GVC and butterscotch for daytime which I guess are just too sweet for my palate of a morning.. I tried menthol / minty stuff in the morning and whilst I like them it feels too much like cleaning my teeth!
Any suggestions?
Many thanks
B

Not sure if linking names in the titles works so just incase, this thread is for millerkev and stewarty oh and whilst I'm here actually for Super-Shiny too Firstly Romelee for recoiling some duff heads and for not being cross with me when I was clever enough to follow the request for a stamped addressed envelope but stupid enough to forget the stamp.... Thank you  Next up is Stewarty who, when I was struggling with clearomisers very kindly offered to send me an i16 (is that right?) which already was kind enough, THEN he added some red astaire and some mint juice, a spare head and something else which I've forgotten now (middle aged brain)... thank you And finally, to millerkev who, when I was whinging and moaning about no juices tasting right, offered to send me some GVC. He is now completely forgiven for suggesting I live in a cave and am a complete GVC convert.... I have been a member of a few forums over the years but have yet to find one where such a welcome and support is offered to new (and in my case, stupid and whingey) members. Very happy vapery person tonight! |
