That sounds rather zen-masterish

I VAPED!

I AM A VAPER !?

Managed to see most of one e-cig vid last night before the blinking netbook decided to give up the ghost and quit on me but I soldiered on and it's surprising what you can pick up in video tutorials without sound - actually it's not really - they are very boring without sound. Although not having heard even one vid all the way through, they may be very boring with sound - I just don't know.

So I tried the BnH last night - just seemed very sweet to me so that will have to be put to one side for now and tried again later.

Then shock, horror, major panic - at 10pm I realised I hadn't got any analogues in the house. Yes, I paniced and went through the usual smoker without cigs panic stations before I twigged I have an alternative - you'd have thought I realised that wouldn't you.

So I switched to the Dark Vapure juice and that seems a little better, taste wise. Not as sweet as the BnH but still don't feel like I'm getting enough of a hit with it.

But I've been up since 6.30 this morning and haven't gone screaming to the shop yet to get some analogues - that's a very good sign. I'd have had at least 6 analogues by now normally.

So I need to figure out whether I am vaping in the best way to get the max effect from each drag - do feel as if I have to have a vape so regularly that I'll never not have the thing in my gob. At least with an analogue there was an end to it - you know when you've had your hit because there's no more cig to smoke! Just a bit harder to suss out with the e-cig. But I will persist.

I am going to buy some analogues today although I will just get a pack of 10 I think - that way they are there to fall back on if I really feel I need one.

I'm also going to order some more juice - looking for the darker / harsher tobacco flavours to start and I think I will up the nic level on some of them just to compare as I don't seem to be getting the hit I need. Especially as I won't (at least for now) be able to use it at work so I will need enough hit to get me through a couple of hours to start. Once I understand it better I will be asking if I can use it in the office but have a feeling it will be a no response.

So that's my update for now. Thanks to all for the support and advice so far - it really helps. TTFN.

I got the Riva 510 Starter Kit and some BnH, Dark Vapure and RY4.

Well done Andy.

As a newbie who hasn't even started my journey yet I am impressed - most of your post went whizzing about 6 feet over my head - hopefully it won't take too long for me to understand what it all means

Wahaaay! My order has arrived.

Thanks Kev for the prompt delivery.

Bad news is I'm only home for lunch - so I've got to go back to work soon. Oh well, it's something to look forward to this evening - sod's law though, the afternoon at work will drag now.

That's Little Dog and Big Dog (aka Wellington & Bella). I adopted them just over 2 years ago (they were 13 and 12 at the time). Sadly we lost Little Dog in March this year aged 14 and 9 months but Big Dog is still going reasonably strong especially as she is a 14 years 3 months old boxer/rottie cross.
