I didn't end up picking any of their 50/50 juice up at VF. But... I did walk away with a couple of their All Day Shorty range, the iced versions of Preach and Mango and Sunny C they apparently launched this weekend.
Not the coldest of vapes, but thoroughly pleasant and worth £10 for 50ml as a treat, so the two for £15 Was definitely an ok deal.

Home. I'll be paying for the last four days for the next week or so, but it'll be worth every second of feeling rough! The people make an event like that and I couldn't have spent the weekend with a nicer bunch, thanks to all of you for being so awesome  |

Aircon. Plug sockets. Nobody sat next to me, so far...
The next four hours won't be quite as hellish as they might have been.

Personally I am not really interested in the vendors side of it. I go to meet up with my forum friends, and I had a fantastic time with the AAE-C community as always. Having them there is a bonus, nothing more. |

First train of three home. No plug sockets, no aircon. People crowding round the one window that opens. At least I get the occasional hint of moving air from it.
Only an hour of my life. If the Birmingham to Liskeard train that I'm stuck on for four hours is like this...

Not drinking tonight turned into a few pints at the Premier and a burger on the way back to the hotel. Good times. I'm four beers into the evening on an empty stomach, the food had better do the trick |

At the hotel. I didn't book the four poster room I've had the previous two years, but got it anyway. Feels like I've got history with this one Just getting some charge in my phone and a set of batteries as the ones I'm on will die on me tonight, should be on my way soon. Hopefully the Waitrose will have sugar, couldn't see it on any of the aisles I Tesco. |

The further my train gets, the darker the skies look. There wasn't any room for wet weather gear in my bag, so... I'm just going through Wolverhampton. Looking delightful as ever, especially with cloudy skies. |

The Met Office claim it's the right side of 30° in London, albeit only just. I call BS.
Just under 5 hours until I can have a shower, I'm counting down the seconds.

Hostel escaped, a clean private room for £20 I can't really complain, 2 1/4 hours to make the massive trek from Edmonton to Euston. Much drinking of coffee to be done before my train oop north |

 If that works, day 2 of how much fun stuff can I fit into three days off. My beloved Middlesex v Sussex at HQ. |

So what time is everyone arriving tomorrow?
I'll be in Shrewsbury from about 3.30, but I'll need a shower and a quick nap before heading down. 6ish, I reckon.

First leg of the journey completed safely. Nearly time to leave my 'luxury' accommodation for an evening at the races with George Ezra show after. Should be a good'un.

On the road. Already doing better than my last trip to (and from!) London, the plug sockets on the coach are working.
Alas I'm starting to think of things I've forgotten and more than starting to regret deciding to lug 20 250ml cans with me.
The list stands at a belt (Might be tricky to find a fat bar steward one without getting absolutely rinsed), a nic shot for a shortfill I'd been saving for the weekend and some cotton. I'm sure the vape shop near my hotel for the next couple of nights will do me a shot and a bag of cotton at VF won't break the bank.
Everything major is covered, I think...
