Me too. I don't want it to taste and smell like kitchen cleaner Confused

I'm giving arctic lemon and whiskey cream a go on vape escape gourmet samplers. Love their cocomel and gingerbread ones Smile

Ledaire · 14/02/2014 20:19

Oh they do sound nice. Damn you Katie!

Yesterday I vaped all evening in the pub and then vaped all the way home on the train. I don't think anyone noticed. It was the vomit comet out of London Bridge and the stench of McD's completely drowned out my RY4/RY6 mix Grin

Today I have mostly been vaping High Voltage (thanks Maggie Smile) which is cherry menthol because, having recovered from a nasty flu a week or so ago, I have now caught a thick, gluey head cold. I will be so pleased to see the end of this long, gloomy, wet, germ-laden winter.

Hope it went well this afternoon Allergic. Well done on giving up the last fags. Well done to you too, cantabile, your progress has been astonishing! Flowers

It was the vomit comet out of London Bridge

Are you on the same train as me from time to time??

I am still faithful to my 'The Sherlock' & have not been seduced by anything else.

Boring old fart - c'est moi!

Plenty, so sorry that you are feeling ill Sad

Yy to the tremendous progress from our posters!

I have been told to rest my vocal cords and that whispering is even worse than speaking (why?) but my new clearos are so good that I keep wanting to blow smoke rings Hmm

Home, very little opportunity for stealth vaping though the lobby areas of both mainline & tube stations were utilised (plus the loo in Starbucks). Then again, in this weather people were smoking real fags in the lobbies too! Must admit to a sneaky smug feeling watching people desperately trying to get their fags lit in gale force winds and driving rain, as I calmly pulled the spinner from my pocket & took a long satisfying drag Grin.

Found out today that there are SIX bloody people being first interviewed for this job - this is after 30-odd were telephone interviewed for half an hour first. 3 will be called back for 2nd interviews, it's all in the lap of the gods & who the boss felt he liked most I think (sigh).

KatieScarlett2833 · 15/02/2014 09:25

One of my good friends at work has ordered a starter kit, should get it today or Monday. Quite (sadly) excited to be getting a work vape buddy Grin

Jux · 15/02/2014 11:50

Oh, good luck Allergic.

So what flavour exactly is Sherlock, the others? I do wish that they'd just tell you what the flavours are!

magimedi · 15/02/2014 11:57

The Sherlock (The 'The' is v important Grin ) is tobacco flavour!!

Today I have vaped in Debenhams and the Pancake Place after noticing my navy parka has a strategically placed vape pocket. I only need to turn my head... Grin

KatieScarlett2833 · 15/02/2014 14:55

And as I am now up over £100 (including vape purchases) I may or may not have visited the Boden sale Grin

Ledaire · 15/02/2014 15:54

Good for you! I am also in credit and may soon be buying a new coat Grin

One of my new flavours isn't to my taste at all but someone who likes sweetie flavours would like it. I'll wait until the others have been steeped properly and put the unwanted ones up for grabs.

ilovesooty · 15/02/2014 17:06

The Operations Director in my company is about to take up vaping. I got "fuck off" when I suggested it to him a few months ago. I think he's doing it for his little granddaughter.

Cantabile · 15/02/2014 17:26

Ilovesooty, now you can snigger for being more forward thinking than the operations director!

Ledaire, hoping that your throat isn't hurting. I can't imagine why whispering is worse.

I have vaped in Tesco, the DIY shop, the Co-op, Lidl today. I did try to make sure that everyone could see me, including doing it as I walked through the Tesco doors.

I am now watching the curling finals. DH thinks I've lost my mind. We're not sporty people.

FlockOfTwats · 15/02/2014 17:39

Got my premier e cig order :D

The chocolate strawberry is nice :) Dont think too much of the vivi tank i ordered... hope it improves.

Ledaire · 15/02/2014 17:47

Nice work, Cantabile!

It is Sunday tomorrow. I do hope nobody is tempted to vape in Church Shock

MsIngaFewmarbles · 15/02/2014 18:00

Hi guys can I join you?

I had a tooth removed 9 days ago and was told AFTER that I couldn't smoke for 10 days. I actually felt sick at the thought, I have smoked for 18 years at around 10-15 a day, the last 2 years have been rollies due to cost.

My DH bought me a 10 motives menthol disposable and then a rechargeable and I haven't had a single fag since. I am so thrilled that I can still 'smoke' without stinking and damaging my health. I'm also training as a MW so I'm sure my patients will appreciate it too. I just trot off to the loo twice a shift for a quick puff.

I want to upgrade as the cartridges are going to end up being expensive but I'm not sure what to go for, any suggestions?

FlockOfTwats · 15/02/2014 18:28

I think this is a good starter kit - And it just looks like a pen in your pocket/office etc :)

I love innokin products though :)

I'm not much use with the menthol/tobacco flavours because i prefer the fruity/sweet/drink flavours.

Ledaire · 15/02/2014 18:36

Welcome aboard MsInga!

Hope your Vivi tank does improve, Flock.

FlockOfTwats · 15/02/2014 18:45

For some reason, Ledaire, It's slightly better if i switch my power over to volts. Still not brilliant though BUT i havent tried that liquid in any other tank so it could just be the liquid that is shit. (Hangsen red energy).

Ledaire · 15/02/2014 18:48

Could be. Some liquids just are. Try your Irish Cream!

I am so gutted I threw mine out - you would have been welcome to it Smile

Ledaire · 15/02/2014 18:50

Good to know about chocolate strawberry as well. I'm vaping choc orange. and a little bit goes a long way so I'm using plain chocolate as a base.

FlockOfTwats · 15/02/2014 18:56

The strawberry is very very subtle, its taken two refills (iclear 16) to taste it properly because i had butterscotch in that one before. If i had any spare atties id have just changed it, but the only other spare atty i have for the iclear 16 seems to be faulty because it just doesnt fire it at all :( will pick some up monday as innokin man is working out a price for the itaste 134 mini for me.

And ive just won 20 quid on a scratchcard! Woopie.
