Hissie take note:
Email from OK Smokey.
Hi Ken.
New Products
We hoped to have many new products ready before the festive season but we were not 100% happy with the performance and decided to launch them in 2011 following a few changes. We are also pleased to announce that we will add an extra 8 exclusive flavours of e-liquid to our menu. All of these are by popular request from our customers or via the OKSmokey forum . The forum does not get used as much as it should but really does have an influence on our products and service so go on, voice your opinions. I urge you all to register if you have anything to share with OKSmokey.com or other vapers.
The new flavours will be, but not limited to:
Davidoff – Very mild and one of the most expensive cigarettes available.
Prince – Requested by many of our Danish customers.
Cecil – Another favourite in Denmark.
Papastratos –A popular Greek Cigarette.
Assos – A popular Greek Cigarette.
Karelia - A popular Greek Cigarette.
Amber Leaf – This will be an addition to the “Big Three” rolling tobacco flavour and will also be available in regular or double flavour.
Condor – This is a terrific retro flavour liquid with a deep fruity taste that is sure to please pipe smokers.
DSE601 Pipes
Talking about pipes, many of you will see that we no longer stock the DSE601. We took the decision to withdraw these because they were not reliable and replacement atomizers are too expensive. After six months of R&D with a major manufacturer we are about to roll out a brand new model that is fit for the 21st century. Unlike the DSE601 it will have a replaceable atomizer and be available in a range of colours. This pipe is so radical that we still haven’t thought of a name for it. If you can think of a suitable name then submit to us and the winner gets a free pipe. We will continue to stock cartridges for the DSE601 for a limited period only as we are sure that you will want to change to the new model when you see it.
Free UK postage
Unfortunately the free post option for UK customers will cease as from 01/01/2011. A combination of increased VAT, poor service from Royal Mail on their second class service and complaints from a few customers that did not receive their orders has meant that it is no longer in your interest, or ours to keep it going. All UK orders will be shipped by recorded delivery as the minimum option, with additional choices being made available as soon as possible.

I'm back. Can we change the subject to severe heartburn? Was going to take a ginger capsule but I've only ever taken one single one before and it nearly set my stomach on fire Just re-read the instructions and it says "do not take on an empty stomach", hmmm. So I've had the buttered crust of a freshly baked loaf, but am still too scared to take the ginger  scylla Scylla, some years ago I used to suffer terribly from heartburn, was back and forward to doctors and of course it was put down to acid reflux caused by stress at that time. The remedy that worked for me and I rarely ever get heartburn now was peppermint oil capsules. Took them about a week to clear it up. They are reasonably cheap and you can get them in most chemists. What i used to do before discovering peppermint oil especially at bedtime if I had a bad bout was to have a slice of burnt toast and a glass of milk. This is only a temporary measure but it helped me get to sleep. Apparently its the charcoal in the toast that helps to neutralise the acid. Peppermint is cooling but ginger has a warming effect so I don't think its a good idea to use this although its good for nausea and sickness. Hope this helps as continuous heartburn is dreadful. If that fails of course see the Doc in case there is an underlying other reason for it. Ken. x |

Subject: A Christmas Tradition When four of Santa's elves got sick, the trainee elves did not produce toys as fast as the regular ones, and Santa began to feel the Pre-Christmas pressure. Then Mrs. Claus told Santa her Mother was coming to visit, which stressed Santa even more. When he went to harness the reindeer, he found that three of them were about to give birth and two others had jumped the fence and were out, Heaven knows where. Then when he began to load the sleigh, one of the floorboards cracked, the toy bag fell to the ground and all the toys were scattered. Frustrated, Santa went in the house for a cup of apple cider and a shot of rum. When he went to the cupboard, he discovered the elves had drunk all the cider and hidden the liquor. In his frustration, he accidentally dropped the cider jug, and it broke into hundreds of little glass pieces all over the kitchen floor. He went to get the broom and found the mice had eaten all the straw off the end of the broom. Just then the doorbell rang, an irritated Santa marched to the door, yanked it open, and there stood a little angel with a great big Christmas tree. The angel said very cheerfully, 'Merry Christmas, Santa. Isn't this a lovely day? I have a beautiful tree for you. Where would you like me to stick it?' And so began the tradition of the little angel on top of the Christmas tree. Not a lot of people know this. |

I'm pretty sure we don't have hares in Streatham  Course, if we did they'd move too fast for doddery me to see them. I have seen 4 foxes sunbathing in that garden, and several out front on the main road cavorting - that was before I put so much junk up against the windows that I can no longer look out - and last year one gorgeous specimen (healthy coat, huge bushy tail) ate some spag bol I threw out of my kitchen window for him. I lost many foxy photos on a hard drive that broke  scylla Okay Scylla, back to my original then. My intuition said dog and vixon (foxes). |

Yes Dee, a very interesting article but I hope he is not just a voice in the wilderness. Lets face it this is not about safety and the dangers of ecigs, this is about loss of smokers to ecigs which is loss of revenue by way of taxes plus the tobacco giants and big pharma's are against ecigs because they want a bite of the cherry too. Anyone who believes that government really care about the health of smokers is living a pipe dream in my opinion. The pretense is good though as they cater to the majority of voters who don't smoke and cast the biggest vote and in doing so make lepers out of smokers who are still paying big tax which they need for the economy but they still pretend that they want them to stop smoking for the good of their health. And how do they do that, by playing along with the big pharmas and sending smokers to them to buy patches,chewing gum,inhalers which don't work but which are expensive and gather in more revenue. > After a while of course the poor old smoker returns to the dreaded weed and the tax continues to add up. Whilst people smoke everyone who takes advantage of their addiction makes money. Is it any wonder that the forces are out to get the vaper. The problem is ecigs work but that is not what the powers that be want to hear as they are too cheap and they want their pound of flesh. (TAX) Health does not matter. Money is what matters. A common report that is given out by government sources is that smokers cost the NHS too much money for the treatment of smoking related diseases. What they fail to say is that smoking tax is twice as much as what it costs to treat smokers. If you don't believe me google it. Of course the NHS has still got a problem but that is because the government do not give them enough funds as they prefer to squander it in other ways. Unfortunately joe bloggs on the street to a certain extent believe the propaganda that our government dishes out and support them. Its a dirty game. Politics, power, money, mind manipulation of the minds of the masses, making the rich richer and pay joe bloggs as little as you can get away with is what drives the affluent in our society. Maybe I am getting old but its how I see it. Angry rant over. Ken. |

Well Scylla they are quite long prints and could be rabbits or hares. We need a tracker to let us know. Any trackers out there? What about you Jerry  I don't know what kind of critters they have there in the UK, Ken. Those look to me like prints from a two legged creature, rather than a four legged one. Maybe a kangaroo ? The prints are long Jerry so I reckon hares. There are loads of them here but no rabbits strangely. |

She may have been Lilac and miss spelled it I have been called a cretin before though lol. Ken, I would think that someone from Crete would be called a Creten, with an "e", not an "i". Its actually a Cretan Jerry but the cretin bit is just a joke with Lilac. I am not a Cretan but am what the Cretan,s call a Xenia, which can mean politely an honoured guest or impolitely a foreigner lol. You can only be a Cretan if you are born here and as I am Irish it does not count. |
