Going to give this a try  Seriously mate- it works. just make sure you give the carto a good clean out with water first and blow it through to dry it out and pop it in the freezer for a couple of days. Try to remember you put them in there though, I checked my freezer and I have 9 boges that I'd forgotten about  The Boges ones worked!!!! They draw really easily now and taste great, brilliant tip. It didn't work on my Kange (is that the name?) ones though, they were still really difficult to draw on and were binned. I'm now Boge through and through  |

I'd check out Curry's they usually have some decent lappy's around the £300 mark I would strongly advise against £300 laptops from PC World, the majority of colourful doorstops we have acquired because people went against advice and picked up a cheap laptop that died within 6 months (some as little as 6 weeks). They have bloody awful components and really I would ask you that you Paypal the money to charity rather than waste it on one of those. PC World have a great load of excuses as to why it can'y be looked at or fixed under warranty as well, it always seems to be somethig the customer has done...... If you have only £300 then I would go for a desktop, have a look at www.arbico.co.uk they do customized (and prebuilt) and their service is amazing. |

No didn't have a red line through the speaker icon BUT I have wriggled the speaker connection wire and it is now on!!! See what level of computer savvy you are dealing with here!! Lots of sound coming through now from all different places I have left on!!!!! Great, you are way above most of my customers if you even thought to trace a wire to see if it may be loose, most of them require me to come and switch the damn thing on for them and do their typing!!! |

I am going to start this year, my best mate is a mad fly fisher and wants me to start so I think it's about time I did. He got into Kayak fishing last year which really appeals to me as well  The river Test in on my doorstep and it would be rude not to enjoy a lazy day out with this kind of scene on your doorstep:  |

As Macca says, take a look in your toolbar on the right hand side, sound on should look like:  Sound off would be same with a redline through it:  If it looks good try some headphones and see if that works  |

Global, it's not the tobacco industry that stands in our way, it's the pharmaceutical industry. They make a lot of money selling their NRT products, which seldom work. I believe the success rate of NRTs is around 15%. On the other hand, the success rate of e-cigs is around 75 - 85% and the pharma companies don't get so much as a penny from e-cigs. Yes I didn't remember that, I think both industries and government would lose a lot of revenue if we all turned to vaping so negative publicity will suit a lot of these industries to keep the public in a worried state about it. Maybe what all these vaping forums should do is set up an account and we all donate what we can to instigate a proper study on ecigs and eliquids.... |

Being new to all of this I have to admit to having my doubts, the only thing that would be good would be if there was a more stringent process under which the e-liquids were made, by that I mean some sort of stamp that gurantees that what I think is in the bottle is definately in the bottle. Maybe there is something out there like that, maybe I have just missed it? I have recently questioned the eliquids and what effect they may have on the body, I have done a load of research and from what I can tell they chemicals which are supposed to be in there are not harmful. In fact PG is used in air con units as a sanitiser (in some cases) which means at some point the effects on respiratory system of humans must have been checked? All I am sure of is that smoking Analogues = certain death, in my eyes removing all the cacinogens from the picture and replacing that with nicotine (of which I am taking in a recuced amount on what I would be with analogues) and a chemical used in every day foods and products must be a winner. We mustn't forget that the Tobacco industry is a powerful beast and even though they cannot advertise anymore they can use negative advertising against replacements as a form of attack, and they have the budget to do it as well. > |

Alternatives  ! Comments like 'omg how much have you spent!' answer.......... If you've got it, flaunt it, oh, you can't, still smoking those smelly old cancer sticks then? 'omg, what if it blows up in your face, aren't they dangerous?'......... Does your phone/camera blow up each time you hold it up to take a picture or use? 'couldn't be bothered with the faf'........... No faff, 6ML tank and I sit on my arse nice and warm all day with no need to even remove from my mouth! 'how do you know e-liquid is safe?'..................... Nicotine and PG/VG, you go google it and come and tell me if it's safe or not. 'that looks stupid!'................... SMACK |

Awe Gordy - my 'ead hurts!!! I do think I want/would like a new TV - a bit bigger than the one I've got but not huge!! MMa P.S. I've been quite happy without a TV - caught up reading several books, very enjoyable. BUT ......I do like the dancing and skating progs. Watch them on catchup on iplayer / ITV / Chanl 4 on your computer? Seems a good compromise to me! If you do want to watch Live TV on your computer then sign up with www.tvcatchup.com/ (takes seconds to sign up) and then just click on a channel and watch. Even works on a smartphone |

Yep, I never touch a new juice till it's steeped for at least a couple of weeks, unless it's one of griz's samples that have been pre-made and ready steeped You must have a fantastic E-liquid cellar |
