Oh yes I tried a couple of discrete wafts until I realised I was drawing attention to myself, I don't know if vaping is banned in our local Asda, I should imagine it is, my daughter works there which made it all the more embarrassing for her, I've never been dragged round a supermarket so fast...

Continuing the standing outside for a fag subject, I used to smoke in the utility in the winter which is nowt more than a brick built lean to outside the back door, when both myself and my then partner went out there we often didn't bother closing the back door behind us unless there was someone in the kitchen, consequently we were heating the local neighbourhood. Since ditching the partner and starting vaping last July I haven't had the back door open more than necessary, there has been a significant reduction in my energy bills, now I know we've had a milder winter but my payments have dropped £20 a month. I'm convinced this is partly due to not repeatedly having that door open

Brilliant advice as always, shows what a paranoid first time mixer I am, not sure what I expected would happen if I got my ratios a bit off, probably thought the bottle would melt lol. Anyway, another lesson learned, what us rookies would do without this forum I dread to think..

I've just started dabbling in the world of mixing, I made up a 5ml trial of red Astaire at 20% and left it for a week. It tasted ok so I decided to mix 30ml. Now according to the calculator I should use 6ml or 180 drops of concentrate. I decided to do it by drops rather than try to get the drip top out of the bottle, after I'd counted out my 180 drops I noticed that I didn't seem to have used as much of the concentrate as I should have done, out of a 10ml bottle I should have less than half left, however I still had more than half in the bottle. I'm sure I counted correctly, so I'm wondering are the drops out of a t juice bottle smaller than ordinary dropper bottles? Have I made a rookie mistake and should have made sure I used the same size drip tops for all liquids or measured it out in mls by syringe? My trial 5mls does taste slightly weak but I didn't think much of it, just figured I wouldn't achieve the exact same taste as pre-mixed. Either way I shall give it a week and chuck a few more drops in if it doesn't taste right, I just wondered if I'd made a basic error.

Ohhh, just thinking about hairy bodied moths makes my toes curl, I hate them, I've stopped parking my car under the streetlight outside in the summer for that very reason, having to run the gauntlet of great big stupid flapping things was creating huge entertainment for my neighbours and kids when I screamed and hurtled my way into the house as something sailed past my ear, but it was doing nowt for my blood pressure. Wasps I also detest but I automatically assume the 'stand as stiff as a plank' position in the hope they'll get bored and go away. I often wondered why I could hear something having a meal out of my garden fence..now I know why, that really isn't going to help my phobia much. I'm really looking forward to summer....

Ok...1. If I had a vaping emergency I'd definitely grab a cigalike to tide me over, I do have a few NHS inhalator thingys left which I have in the car, at work etc, I've had to resort to them once and managed to survive. I'm not sure what their use by date is though, I must have had them 2 years +.

2. I've never peed in a bush, I can go under pressure, I'd be there for a week. There was a story in the local paper this week about a woman caught short on a girls night out, so she staggered off to find somewhere to pee and fell into some roman excavations, she tried to sue the council but they claimed she was too trollied to see where she was going and she lost
