Oh my God has Dr. Hilary Jones got old........ah, they were standing outside of Liverpool Street Station and that has me reminiscing.......in front of McDonalds and Pret-a-Manger. I am very familiar with Liverpool St. Station and I love Pret-a-Manger. Funny, I keep in touch with UK headlines online and it was one of those I saw in July where I first read about ecigs. I was talking to a friend of mine in London last week about them and was amazed that she had tried them but wasn't converted. Perhaps she tried it here as this is her commuter station. I think, though, if I had tried one in those US malls or at Liverpool St station I might not have got so hooked on them. I think it was having to do all the research myself and finding the right e-cig for me that got me convinced it was the way to go. Anyway, if it wasn't for the UK talking about these alternatives I would still be on the analogs.

Excellent videos! It doesn't get much better than that. I love the idea of trading packs for a free ecig! I wish the Americans would do this on smoke out day. Actually, at any time. I've always felt that all quit smoking products should be free, and to see this being done by a Doc makes my heart smile broadly. Kudos!!!!


Get off your butts America!!! Especially you ALA, ACA, type of "health organizations".

Hey if HC wasn't so damn anti I would gladly setup a booth and hand out free Ecigs and I'm sure many Cdn suppliers have had the same thought.

In theory it could be done in canada, with zero nic, and then you'd have to have someone around the corner in a dark trench coat saying "pssst buddy, I have nic liquid for you" :)


Might not be a bad idea to have local booths like this at No Tobacco Day(s) around Canada. To operate within the current no nic regulations will lose some people but not all, because for those smokers who just want to replace the habit, not the nicotine, it would be a hit - and "some" people switching is better than none. But, it's also an opportunity to present true information to an audience of people who need to know more about the alternative, and get some media attention in Canada!
