Thanks for the info Matt. If you do hear of any policies being formed, could you please keep us informed. I hope that no brewery/chain comes out against vaping. I would have thought that the first one to openly embrace vaping would see a dramatic turnaround in business in next to no time | |

I went into my local (Mai Tai, in Poole Dorset) and went straight to the manager to check its ok and he'd seen them at a show and was interested in getting one himself. Did get a few strange looks from others in the bar (prob cos I hold my 510 like a pipe). Few people asked and showed them and they thought vaping is a great idea - just seems no one knows about it. |

Forgot to mention - Mai Tai is a cocktail bar and am talking to them about endorsing e-cigs and actually mixing their own flavours to go inline with the cocktails Will be great if we can pull it off - only thing concerning the boss is the long term health risks of e-cigs. Obviously doesn't want to endorse something that "could" be bad for you (as opposed to letting people get off their heads on cocktails and fall about in the street every night) |

| LOL - and then there's the danger of fights breaking out between GG and Prodigy fans...

OK here's an update from me! It would appear that my prediction was wrong re. JDW being the first pub company to have a policy regarding e-cigs. I received a company e-mail this morning that said that my employer (greene king) are trialling e-cig vending machines in a number of pubs. I've never seen an e-cig vending machine before so this one may be interesting. The only problem with it is that it seems to dispense the bloody Gamucci Micro! That'll not last long then! I'll keep you posted Matt |

Oh dear, and yet, YESSSSS! The Micro is not a brilliant bit of kit, from what I've seen, but it may well increase the profile of e-cigs in general. It would be great if there was a list leaked that had all the locations on it.... <cough> |

so is that a nationwide policy of JDW to be e-cig friendly then?

it's not JDW that are e-cig friendly, hopefully it'll be Greene King! I'll try and get a list of the venues with the e-cig vending machines. Apparently there is another company targeting the pub market, NJOY have released the 'weekender' which is a pre-charged e-cig with the equivalent of 40 cigarettes of nicotine in it! Oh dear, that sounds like a false claim to me! |
