hi Jerry,

I couldn't have said it better myself, I've never been a member of a forum like this before and was a "silent watcher" for quite a while too.

Just wanted to add my thanks to all of you who have posted on this forum it has helped me a huge amount as well as having a great sense of community. I mean lets face it, it's a weird thing we do!

Either you are very, very brave or very, very mad quitting before going to Disnleyland!

I am in Bridgend, where are you? Maybe we can start a movement down here

Welcome
luffy

Welcome, Jerry, and thank YOU. You gave us all a reminder of what this forum is about.

And I have tweezers with me at all times, too. And Go through too damn many paper towels.

And, BTW, I LOVE Wales. I've been to Cardiff and Harlech. I was a Castle buff back then. ANd I think welsh women have the sexiest accents in the world! I forget her name, but when I was a boy I saw a Welsh singer on the Carson show, who used to do duets with Kenny Rodgers, and I soooo fell in love.

Good to have you aboard, Jerry.

Yup, I also lurked for a good long time before spouting. Never known a more useful online resource than this one. Guess that's pretty common if you're enthusiastic about a subject.

Right, off to goldfishfolding.com...

hi jerry
i'm a new member as well / last week / so welcome, everybody's all so helpful . friendly and pleased to help and give you good sound advice. I read your write up smiled-laughed and then cried . I have never been part of a forum like this before but it becomes very infectious quickly.
I tried once to give up smoking before many moons ago i lasted 5 days with the usual gum and patches (they are ok for a long flight) my partner discovered e;cig 4 weeks ago he hasn't had a cigarette since then.I watched him for a few days and he was doing real well but then i run out of baccy and couldn't be bothered to go to the shop to get any so i jumped on the band wagon as well and haven't looked back since not bothered having a cigarette at all, but i am fed up of keep going to pick up the lighters and ash trays i've now banished them to the back of the cupboard.

Nice one Miss Diane! I love the fact that you weren't even gonna try e-cigs but you did because you ran out of baccy! Good on you!

Hi Kit,

Haven’t replied thus far because I don’t want to be seen as someone that does so to ‘bump’ their post back to the top.

I really hate that – much more important posts than mine should be on page 1.

Although newish to this forum - member since April 08 believe it or not! - I am not new to Internet Forums and have been a Mod and Admin in the past.

That said, could I say, thanks to you and everyone else for the very kind remarks that have been posted – they really do mean a lot (Oh heck,its Oscars time again). None have gone unnoticed and all have been stored for future reference. Miss Diane, yours was particularly pleasing and Leaford, dunno who the singer was (Ms Bassey ??) but delighted you like Wales – Cymru Rocks!

However, Kit, you asked how I’m “getting on”. To not reply would be rude in my book; so as for how I’m doing.......

Been smoking these things since April and have done the NJOY thing (they’ve bust twice – so not going there again!). Tried numerous, atomisers, batteries and carts etc. Found smokester and will be giving him my custom TFN as I like the penstyle that he sells.

Atomiser is brill – getting about a month out of each one. This is fine by me till another alternative arrives.

Been watching the Loong Totem post with interest and also the Greencig stuff. Could be the way forward depending on cost.

Anyway, thank you for asking and I hope all is well with you and all the other great folk on here.

I’m on a beach down on the Gower , S Wales (Gods Chosen Home) for the next 5 weeks so Internet access will be a bit sporadic so I may not be visible on here for a while (nothing new there then).

Best regards to all and hope you have a great summer.
Jerry

Hi Jerry. Like Values84 I haven't completely stopping smoking normal cigs (simply because I don't want to but who knows I may well one day) but well done to you. Think of the money you'll save and not give to the government in taxes.

The only drawback (no pun intended) is when you keep seeing another e-cig that looks nice/interesting and suddenly falls into the "must have" wish list

Still, makes shopping for Christmas and birthday presents easy. Just ask Santa to bring another e-cig or cartridges. My husband and son already know what I want for Christmas

To turn the smilies on, go to User CP, scroll down to Edit Options and click, go right down the page until you come to Miscellaneous Options and pick Enhanced - WYSIWYG. That'll turn on the Smilies

You know, I think the longest one I kept on my wishlist was Meltrex's. I think it lasted a week and then I had to buy it. Sure glad I did - its one of my favorites. I just don't have the willpower to keep it on my "wish list". I keep saying "but what if that one is the perfect one". I have no willpower
