Thank you for the link! I won't pretend to know anything about art but I think your work is amazing. Once I started looking at a picture I had to keep looking at each detail, your very talented

I will get around to the RY type ones in the next day or two, I'm getting a little bored of all the fruity types. I couldn't decide what to try tonight so I got OH to pick me a random one....melon! It is nice (blue melon berry by leo liquid) but I've had far too much melon these last few days.

I don't think I could use the strawberry vapetto for too long, it's really nice but it was getting sickly. I think the spottedick is going to be a favourite though!

I had talked myself out of buying the 4nine and magma, until OH said he really liked it! Jealousy set in and I ordered myself one too...so you see, It's all his fault! Lol

My little boy starts nursery in September (just a few hours each day) so I won't be looking for work until he starts full time next year. I was caring for my nan with alzhimers and doing some at home courses (IT technician and web design), then I set up a beauty salon for my dad (he already had a hair dresses), I was supposed to leave the beautician to run it but I ended up being self employed and running it myself. Then I helped my auntie set up her pet store just before I had my little girl....I always seem to volunteer myself! Lol

So, I have absolutely no idea! I prefer heavy work and getting my hands dirty but it will have to fit around my OH and the little ones, plus all the appointments....good luck to that!

Thank you! You don't need to know a thing about art to appreciate it ...it's all a case of seeing a painting and finding yourself engaged by it.
Some paintings can evoke all manner of emotions, many of them fairly negative, alarming or sad. I always aim to produce work full of positive emotions, and thankfully, that's what I hear a lot of people say. For me, I had the pleasure of painting it, and to find someone taking the intended implications from them is 'job done' for me and I'm happy. I wouldn't like to be confronted daily by a painting that jarred in any way or disturbed by it's content.
I once painted a huge single 24" high golden toned pear set against a warm dark background. Some said it made them feel safe, others said it was calming or comforting, but the barrister that bought it said it was challenging and he loved that! He hung it on his study wall. For myself, the pear was a guarding sentinel, and I saw the warm safe place behind the pear as all protecting. It made me think of my Dad.

I will get around to the RY type ones in the next day or two, I'm getting a little bored of all the fruity types. I couldn't decide what to try tonight so I got OH to pick me a random one....melon! It is nice (blue melon berry by leo liquid) but I've had far too much melon these last few days.

I don't think I could use the strawberry vapetto for too long, it's really nice but it was getting sickly. I think the spottedick is going to be a favourite though!

I can't use fruit for long - I get bored by it quite quickly. Just sometimes though, I welcome it. I don't get the chance to find the Strawberry Vapetto sickly ..daren't use it for more than a minute or two per day. Makes a nice treat though! I'm looking forward to trying the Posset and Strawberry & Elderflower ones from CV when they arrive! The latter may give me some problems, but if it's nice it'll be another 'treat' one!
I like the Spottedick too! I love the Jamaican Ginger but it chokes coils up too quickly for me in the VG. I'm going to add some to the Goose juice to see if it does better that way - it's got a nice strong flavour, so all will not be lost! I need to re-visit the Apple Pie one too!

I'm really looking forward to the max VG Nicoticket ones arriving so I can mix them with the ones I got from Spiritus! Apparently there's a new short run one coming on the Nicoticket site any day now (the shipping isn't too bad either!) The hint is it's a variation of Crème Brulee with old Caramel and old TA (whatever that is) ...I'm really hoping they'll offer the max VG in that too (they don't with all of them sadly!)

I had talked myself out of buying the 4nine and magma, until OH said he really liked it! Jealousy set in and I ordered myself one too...so you see, It's all his fault! Lol

Ah right! So it wasn't your fault at all ..you were coerced! You rest your case!

So, with a practical nature like yours, and the experience you've already had, there's plenty you can do. Most likely the best thing is self employed too so that you can work to suit your own needs!
I know for sure I'd never want to go back and work for anyone else again! Been 25 years now since I had a job in the 'real' world

Thank you for sharing the pear story, it made me smile I love the little/simple things, they make a big difference!

It's order day tomorrow, definitely got to be CV this week! I haven't been enjoying my liquids for a couple of days, sometimes I feel really fed up with them all. I need something reliable that I can just use when all else fails, might try mint, not had any for a while. The VV melon is much better with a little custard mixed in, brings all the flavour back!

I've been using the hot buttered rum today and tried the steamgunk ry4, it's similar to the tribeca, lots of sweet caramel but more tobacco in this one. It's a bit rough in my drippa, think it would be better in a protank but it's ok now and again.

I will get around to the nicoticket, been wanting to try them for quite a while

The xray was another failed attempt, she got extremely anxious and refused to sit under the machine. The lady was lovely though, we saw her last time too and she gave us extra time to try but after 2 40 minute slots we had to give up :-(

I think I would rather work for someone else, it's much easier to leave at the end of a shift and have nothing to worry about!

There's a lot of personal thoughts go on whilst planning or executing a painting ...so it's nice to also hear some of the thoughts the gallery clients have too

Well I just got the Posset and Strawberry Elderflower yesterday. This morning I couldn't resist trying the Posset instead of letting it steep ...it's lovely! A very nice lemon cream taste ..almost has a very slight hint of something herby/spicy - angelica? who knows but I like it. It's gentle I'm using it in a mini Protank2 with a cTwist. I think I'll be getting a bigger bottle of this.

I got 2x30mls of the Absolut Crème in .6mg as it was in 6 or 12 mg, Max VG! I also got some Banana Pudding and PBJ - can easily dilute the PG in those with something else, and I'd prefer a really mild creamy banana taste!

I emailed Lew at CV yesterday and asked if I'd be able to get zero nicotine in a few ..he said yes, no problem and to just add a note to the order! That way I can try getting nicotine lower and also dilute some of the Nicoticket ones that are a PG/VG mix! He said he's been trying to get down from 12mg to 6 but hasn't yet. I used some NT Grandma Cinnamon Danish in zero and hardly noticed the difference.
I've got the bigger size Unitank now and it's pretty good for any that I use a lot! I got a Protank ll as well but haven't used it yet. The mini ones are good though

The xray was another failed attempt, she got extremely anxious and refused to sit under the machine. The lady was lovely though, we saw her last time too and she gave us extra time to try but after 2 40 minute slots we had to give up :-(

That's a shame, but not for the want of trying! Better luck next time.

I suppose you do have a point! Working at home means I never really switch off, but I don't have to most of the time. My studio would have been a dining room and sits between the kitchen and the sitting room, so I'm right in the middle of things! The hall and front door is right outside my door too. Still, it has double French doors and looks out over the garden ..very pleasant and gives me lots of light!
If you were self-employed, having a young family though would mean you would stop working or thinking about it when necessary, and you could work around any other commitments to suit yourself

 

[zeroclue]

I've ordered my captain custard along with some caramel cappuccino, spottedick and trolls blood (OH picked it out, have you tried it)? I wanted to wait until I tried the twisted but there's always next time! That lemon one sounds good too, I've really gone off the lemon meringue one :-(

Had a fun afternoon in the docs waiting room, little one has a throat infection now. Probably with all the sick over the last few weeks but she was burning up all night and sick again this morning.

I've still got one of my protank2s running, I like the look of them and they hold a good amount of liquid. I'm trying to empty everything ready for cleaning....new flavours on the way

Been up in the rba forum again, there's always something shiny...I've got to stop! Managed to run away with my fingers in my ears :-/

Your home sounds lovely, I can almost see you....brush in one hand, mvp2 in the other! Lol. I prefer being out in the garden, got the kids growing carrots and peppers in pots but the rest is just grass with a corner patio and it's a decent size for playing in.

Almost forgot, I tried the coconut choc mint ice cream, it's a bit weird with the coconut but I will give it a week and try it again. I want a sweet creamy coconut flavour but they keep disappointing, I've got some plain coconut so I will try mixing it with different ones.

Trolls Blood is the only one I haven't tried! ...and when I read about what you think of it, I may change my mind! Did you try the RY Steamgunk ones yet?
I've already used half my bottle of Posset - if you like the sound of a lemon cream with a very slight hint of something else (can't quite place it: angelica, aniseed?) then you'll like it! I just ordered 30ml today along with another 30ml of Mint Choc Vapetto ...and I'd promised myself no more orders for a while! I like both of those two so much I don't want to run out and would like to give them a chance to steep a while! The Choc Vapetto one develops the light mint properly (for me) after a while, but is more chocolate & waffle cone when new.
Have you tried a real Twisted Ice? It's very close to that! I like it. Can't use much though because of the fruits!

Had a fun afternoon in the docs waiting room, little one has a throat infection now. Probably with all the sick over the last few weeks but she was burning up all night and sick again this morning.

Hope she's better from that soon.
Our youngest was a month early down to miscalculation by my doctor! (had a c section) and he developed bronchiolitis which flared up a number of times in the first 4 years. His breathing would virtually shut down and his temperature shoot up without warning and it would be ambulance sirens in the night! Frightening at times. Once though, on top of that, he got tonsillitis and cellulites of the face. He was barely talking, so very young and was in hospital for quite some time. He looked awful until better. They really can scare us at times! He was prone to catching every bug around until in his 20's, but did grow out of the more serious stuff by the time he was 4.
Wish it could be that way for your little one!

Ha-ha! I'm happy with my Spinner ll, cTwist, MVP's and the Unitanks and Protanks - not really wanting to go any further than that ...I think Hope not anyway! With luck I'll only be buying liquid and coils most of the time until one of the batteries gives up. But - I do have a spare Spinner and MVP2 in my cupboard

Your home sounds lovely, I can almost see you....brush in one hand, mvp2 in the other! Lol.

Pretty accurate vision! It is a nice house - we had lived in an Edwardian house before this and it had big rooms, high ceilings and plenty of space. We saw this by chance when visiting our eldest in his new house. We were looking for a house at the time, and this was on the market at a reduced price - self build unfinished. So when we saw the larger rooms and higher ceilings, we decided to get this one. Only intended staying for 10 years max ...that was 21 years ago! We intended our last house to be in Oban, but started getting our sensible heads on when we realised if we needed to go to hospital, the nearest larger one is 3 hours away by road or rail!

I prefer being out in the garden, got the kids growing carrots and peppers in pots but the rest is just grass with a corner patio and it's a decent size for playing in.

I love the garden - ours was just part of a ploughed field with no path or fence when we moved in. It was such fun going off to the garden centre and coming back with just my face above the steering wheel peering through foliage ...I'd unload them, place them where they needed planting and husband and Dad would get on with it It's mostly trees, shrubs and old roses. We have an ancient hawthorn, blackthorn and rowan hedge running along the bottom of the garden, and it's protected ..suits us fine as it's rather lovely and has lots of birds nesting in it in summer.

Almost forgot, I tried the coconut choc mint ice cream, it's a bit weird with the coconut but I will give it a week and try it again. I want a sweet creamy coconut flavour but they keep disappointing, I've got some plain coconut so I will try mixing it with different ones.

Who makes that? Sounds like mint bounty

 

[zeroclue]

I've only tried the steamgunk ry4 so far, it's got a sweet caramel flavour similar to the halo tribeca but with more tobacco. It's nice now and again but not an every day one.

I tried the twisted last night, the flavour is a bit off (something not quite right), but I really enjoyed it. I like that coolness and it makes it unique from anything else I've tried, will be picking some up next time!

That must have been so scary, I worry about things happening and me panicking not having a clue what to do!

Little miss has been much better today, we all snuggled up for a nap after a rainy day movie

The lady who lived here before planted ivy along the back fence, I hate it and it's near impossible to get rid off! I've got it all cut back but grows like wild fire!

I don't think I have the mint vapetto! I know I had the strawberry one, it must have been out of stock when I ordered. I've still got the abc, banoffee cookie dough and comp juice to try, plus some more blue bandit.

The coconut mint choc is grizwalds from vape escape, not sure I'm going to like it! Will try it again next week.

I could do with a few more batteries but unless something stops working and needs replacing I'm done with the endless buying!

We have probably got enough liquid to last a year, some not so nice ones! I'm going to try and stick to ONE bottle per week to order, I would probably cry if I added up vape stuff on my bank statement but it has definitely been worth it.

Now just got to sit back and relax, still find it amazing that I no longer smoke! I'm just a few days behind you so I keep checking your counter

I get the feeling the RY from CV will continue to suit me fine

I tried the twisted last night, the flavour is a bit off (something not quite right), but I really enjoyed it. I like that coolness and it makes it unique from anything else I've tried, will be picking some up next time!

It should taste really positive: fruit with ice cream plus the coolness. I remember rightly, you choose the cool on the ordering page! Very nice. I'd useit a lot if it didn't give me problems

That must have been so scary, I worry about things happening and me panicking not having a clue what to do!

I'm not bad with anything like that - was in St Johns Ambulance in my teens and then worked in a hospital for a couple of years - our two often had accidents that needed swift action too. Only time I was a bit rocky was when my husband was in for surgery and I worked on the theatre suite at the time ...not quite the same in there when it's someone you care for!
Still, when confronted with a situation, your instincts kick in and you cope, so don't worry!

hope she's still doing OK!

The lady who lived here before planted ivy along the back fence, I hate it and it's near impossible to get rid off! I've got it all cut back but grows like wild fire!

I planted some of the larger leaf ivy to grow up a trellis on the wall between two windows at the back, and we keep it clipped back off the windows ...the wrens love nesting in it!

I'd be pretty upset if I ran out of Mint Choc Vapetto! It's one that I can use all the time with no problem and I really like it! Not too sweet, just right What's the comp juice? I saw where there had been a competition to name one on the CV site but as far as I know there's nothing for sale really ...?
I've never gone back to the Blue Bandit or Banoffee ones ..perhaps I should try them again!
I tried the Twilight properly yesterday, and while it's nice, I was glad to get back to the Posset! ...the coconut started to 'annoy' me after a while!

I could do with a few more batteries but unless something stops working and needs replacing I'm done with the endless buying!

I'm still in the process of working out what doesn't cause me problems. Getting quite a few decent ones though, and it's CV that shines out for flavour and usability for me! I'm suspecting that their VG may be slightly superior to others! I'm going to buy a bottle of their VG and the nicotine and use some of the concentrates to see if any appeal ...I have quite a few of them. Apart from what they already had, they even have their own in concentrates now, plus there's over 80 of their Re-Branded range coming.
Thing is, every time you think there's nothing you want ..something crops up!
It is good to see the days and weeks clock up - we're doing OK!
My husband asked me recently how was I doing with cutting down on the e-cigs!!! What? I may cut down on nicotine ..in the process off going lower than .6 perhaps now, but I may not give up ...I'm just taking things steady as they go!

 

[zeroclue]

I think you can order the comp juice, I've just been on to check and you can select nic strength etc.

I've got my samples mixed up, I've already tried it! It was one I didn't like, very thick and creamy but the flavour was strong and sickly (OH liked it). I'm just trying the confusion one now (defiantly confused me....thought I'd already used it)! This one is similar but seem more caramel ish, it's very peppery though and the flavours not as strong.

I've been very good, not ordered anything else! Going to get a few batteries etc but I'm keeping away from all things shiny. We did call into one of our local shops, they have a fab range and I ended up gently nudging my OH into buying a brass nemesis (he wanted one anyway, and it was sitting there looking all pretty)!

Our postie got the evil eye yesterday, I was hoping the CV order would arrive and my kayfun was sat waiting to be filled up with the spottedick....no post! I've had the dispatch email so hopefully tomorrow

Cutting down on ecigs! Nooooooo, mine is glued to my hand. I need to drop my nic level (I'm still mainly on 12mg, I would be fine using 8mg). I might have spent far too much on this stuff but I've got lots to show for it, unlike smoking! Definitely no plans on quitting for a good while yet, I still have the odd 'cig' moment but it passes quickly and easily.

I hope you weren't working during his surgery! You must have been a wreck, but at least you knew the staff who were looking after him. I have an image of walking into intensive care after my daughters heart surgery permanently burnt into my memory, it breaks my heart every time I think of it. Not a job I could do :'(

Back to school tomorrow! She's been grouchy all day but otherwise fine and eating like a pig! My little boy needs some mummy time too, he's been very demanding these last few days. Got a nice quiet day planned for us and looks like the sun will be shining so we can have a trip to the park in the morning

The 'comp' one is sickly? In that case, I don't want any! I've found today that the Nicoticket Grandmas Cinnamon Danish gets a bit over the top after a while! ...and I've got 40ml of it! It'll have to be diluted with gentle creamy ones! I like the Confusion - very nice with their RY! May be good for the GCD dilution!
That's what I like so much about the Mint Choc Vapetto - it's not overly sweet and never gets yucky!

It's far too easy to think you 'need' the latest or newest, and when you think about I, you don't!
To be honest, I love the MVP's and the Unitanks/Protanks but they do use/deliver more, and it explains why I've been more wheezy these past weeks since I got them. I'm trying to learn not to inhale much at all!

Our postie got the evil eye yesterday, I was hoping the CV order would arrive and my kayfun was sat waiting to be filled up with the spottedick....no post! I've had the dispatch email so hopefully tomorrow

I've got an order due from CV ..my 30ml bottle of Posset and more of the Vapetto! I also ordered a few from Waves of Vapour - I really like that Frappacino ...lovely gentle coffee taste! Supposedly despatched last Wednesday but no sign yet! I'll see if it arrives tomorrow, and if not, I'll get in touch with them. I like that there's choices on there with base liquid ratios etc. Plus you can make your own custom blend too!

Ah, he's the worst kind of ex smoker! He stopped in '93 and has nagged at me or pulled faces ever since. To be honest, I'm such a rebel, it probably made me more determined not to give up! That's why I didn't tell anyone when I realised I may be able to give up ..can you imagine the constant questions and scrutiny? Aaaggghh! - I'd been stopped for 3 weeks the last time I got told off for smoking! I took great delight in telling him he'd totally missed the fact that I hadn't smoked for 3 weeks ..his face was a picture!
If I want to stop, I will, but for now it's more a case of whether I can find the right ones to continue without problems!
Surprisingly, it was easy going down in steps from 2.4 to .6 ...now I need to dilute some a little to see if I can get further!

I hope you weren't working during his surgery! You must have been a wreck, but at least you knew the staff who were looking after him. I have an image of walking into intensive care after my daughters heart surgery permanently burnt into my memory, it breaks my heart every time I think of it. Not a job I could do :'(

No, it was during a week off I had ....he was suddenly in a lot of pain one Sunday. Sent him off in an ambulance and it turned out to be gallstones. He was operated on two days later. I kept out of the way that morning as he was out of it with pain killer anyway and I didn't really want to see him go to theatre!
The porters phoned as soon as he was out of theatre and I saw him in recovery, so sooner than most people would, and he looked pretty awful. Still, he was glad to see a familiar face as soon as he came round properly ...probably glad to see any face As soon as I left, I cried! Not nice to see someone you care for in a bad way!
I've dealt with worse though sadly.

Back to school tomorrow! She's been grouchy all day but otherwise fine and eating like a pig! My little boy needs some mummy time too, he's been very demanding these last few days. Got a nice quiet day planned for us and looks like the sun will be shining so we can have a trip to the park in the morning

Grouchy but eating like a pig doesn't spound too awful for her!
My husband has been at a classic car thing all day with a friend of his so it's been a quiet day. I needed it though because I had to get up two hours earlier than usual as he left early, and I've been tired all day! If he tries to go without waking me up, the small dog begins to howl and the big one starts to bark ...it's blood curdling! no way could I sleep through it!

 

[zeroclue]

I was the last one to stop smoking, my OH quit about a month before me. It wasn't long before the 'you stink/that cig stinks' comments started! Tbh, I still love the smell, I was at the park this morning and someone was smoking outside the little café, I had a right good sniff :-/ They were quite far away otherwise I might have grabbed it from her hand! I felt much better once we left the play area and I could vape again (I don't use it in play area but I do when walking around the gardens/grounds).

I had to call back on to school after lunch with some medicine, postie had been when we got back (he was an hour early today). The trolls blood smells quite nice but I don't think it will be my type of flavour, I will post back when I've try it!

I remember when I was young, my friends mum was taken by ambulance, she looked awful and had to be fetched out in a wheelchair because of gallstones :-(

Found some new flavours on grizwalds, might pick one to try the next time OH want some caramel cappuccino ordering. Hopefully get some vamp vape this week, I found it on smok shop and a discount code but I can't find where to enter the code! I want to try jack the ripple too (all your fault with your ice cream talk)! Lol

I'm using another from leo liquid tonight, the manzy, it's a grape and blueberry flavour which is quite tasty and makes a nice change. I've got the coconut crack in a protank too, they still only have a FB page set up, hopefully they will have a web site soon!

...OH has just filled a tank with trolls blood but he's having technical issues (men)!

....waiting, you just know it's going to taste like cough medicine after all this faffing!

....zzzzzzz, 10 o'clock

....yuk!, only joking, he's still faffing! (I'm bored)!

...11.05! It's actually quite nice, the aniseed is fairly strong but I was expecting the citrus to be lemon.... it orange and works really well. It's quite smooth and refreshing, not something I could use for long but breaks up the fruity flavours well. Only had a few draws so it's a bit early but much better than I thought it would be

What is it about male ex smokers ..they get so sanctimonious!
I'm with you on the smell of cigs still! I try to avoid them because I would still want one I think. The thought of my hair, clothes and house smelling of cigarettes again really does put me off though.
People close by who've just had one are a different matter though ..they do smell!

It was a Sunday by the time the doctor called for an ambulance, and by that time he'd gone into shock. I know better than wait now!

Found some new flavours on grizwalds, might pick one to try the next time OH want some caramel cappuccino ordering. Hopefully get some vamp vape this week, I found it on smok shop and a discount code but I can't find where to enter the code! I want to try jack the ripple too (all your fault with your ice cream talk)! Lol

CV have a few ice cream ones coming in concentrates ..should be fairly easy to make some up from those!
I seem to recall Griswalds only do PG/VG mix.

I'm using another from leo liquid tonight, the manzy, it's a grape and blueberry flavour which is quite tasty and makes a nice change. I've got the coconut crack in a protank too, they still only have a FB page set up, hopefully they will have a web site soon!

I've never had a grape one and the few blueberries I had weren't brilliant.
NT had/have a short run of Grape Ape - sounds like people really like that one but it doesn't come in MAXVG ...be the same next Tuesday ...very short run of Strawberry Frenilla and Frenilla but no MAXVG likely. That's expected to sell fairly fast so if you want any, it goes on their site at 3.30 in the afternoon (9.30am Nebraska time).

...OH has just filled a tank with trolls blood but he's having technical issues (men)!

....waiting, you just know it's going to taste like cough medicine after all this faffing!

....zzzzzzz, 10 o'clock

....yuk!, only joking, he's still faffing! (I'm bored)!

...11.05! It's actually quite nice, the aniseed is fairly strong but I was expecting the citrus to be lemon.... it orange and works really well. It's quite smooth and refreshing, not something I could use for long but breaks up the fruity flavours well. Only had a few draws so it's a bit early but much better than I thought it would be

Oh! sounds better than I expected ...I may just try it at some point!

Definite yuk to the smell of stale smoke! We only smoked outside (vape in the kitchen and lounge once the kids go to bed) We have a sort of porch type thing at the side/back door which separates the front and back garden, that was our smoking area, it always stunk esp first thing in the morning or after being away from home.

Was the doc out for a home visit? They are rubbish, I can't believe they let him get so bad! (Well, no, actually I can believe it) they always act like your going OTT, I think they get so used to brushing people off. We usually phone nhs direct instead of the out of hours doc, they are more likely to send you to a&e if they think you need a check up, out if hours just tell you to make an appointment next week!

We had a fun morning at sports day! My little girl joined in most of the team games and bean bag race Can't believe how quick this year has gone, 2 weeks until summer holidays!

My little boy will be 3 next week, I'm so excited! It's going to be a tough day and my little girl will be at school so we are having our day out at the weekend. We were supposed to go to Doncaster wildlife park last year but had to cancel so we are going Sunday

My OH has one called grape escape, he got it in the starter pack with his lavatube v2.5 I've only tried a little bit from his tank and the manzy had a similar candy type flavour, it's not my favourite and I think I would get bored with it very quickly.

I've got a blueberry that's trying to be authentic which is OK mixed with a vanilla type, a candy blueberry which I really like the flavour but the TH is very light and the blue cow which I'm not all that bothered about (prefer the strawberry one). I once mixed the authentic one with vanilla cupcake which wasn't bad but still not something I would use often.

I've been using captain custard most of the day and my bum is firmly planted on the sofa, so I will probably give the samples a miss tonight. Think I've over done the fruits again, been craving twisted all day!

Suppose because we smoked long before it became such a socially unacceptable thing, we've always been used to smoking indoors.
Ever since my husband stopped in '93, I've only smoked in here apart from one in the kitchen with my first cup of tea.

It was a long time ago, but a weekend, and I think it had been a locum that eventually turned up.
Now though, I wouldn't hesitate to bundle him in a car to go right to the hospital!

Oh my goodness! so soon. Makes me worry more about being behind with work ..the year is going far to quickly!

Aw! I vividly remember our eldest being 3 ..lovely age.

The thought of a grape one makes me think of a rather bland flavour, so I've never bothered trying one. The NT one seems to have other flavours with it because people seem to like it.
Same goes for blueberry - not something I've liked with the few I've tried.
I do like Twisted but can only use it for short spells.
So many problems ...they do get me down at times, but I do not want to fail!

The grape is quite a strong flavour, it's more like a carton of juice type flavour than an actual grape.

I tried Vinirette, Watermelon last night, the description is just watermelon but there is a very strong taste of ??!??! I would have to say, wet biscuit. No idea what it's supposed to be but it really doesn't work!

The last few days I've had a niggle, I knew I had forgotten something and it's been driving me crazy. Finally figured it out, my MOT! It ran out 2 weeks ago! That means my insurance isn't even valid, I've moved it on to the drive way and it's booked in for tomorrow. I've got everything wrote down in a notebook, think I should put it in the calendar too :-/

My tanks have got it in for me tonight, two have flavours I don't want, two are leaking and one is giving rubbish flavour! Don't usually have any problems with them and I really don't fancy messing about with them, I'm due a clean/re wick tomorrow afternoon so just going to have to make do :-(

I've got some retired tanks if I get desperate but I ran out of coils, I had a toothpick with about ten all wrapped and ready to fit. Looks like I will be making some more, I quite enjoy doing it but my eyes are terrible! I was in for an eye test last weekend and my new glasses will be ready to collect on Sunday so I might wait until then and see if I can see without the magnifying glass!....crap, what's wrong with me Sunday is our trip to the wildlife park, I will phone specsavers and see if they can fit me in tomorrow....after the MOT!

Ok, I'm waffling and getting myself in a flap, I'm off to get myself organised!

I may get around to trying a grape one at some point
That Watermelon one sounds horrid! 'wet biscuit' ...the new latest thing? ....so, when did you try wet biscuits?

I hate it when I forget things like that! I have an ADC (Active Desktop Calendar) on the bottom right corner of my desktop and it throws reminders up at me for anything I care to put in it. Little tags or circles around dates that I can see right away too. Depends what you use though - would be small on a tablet/phone. I use a desktop with a large monitor.

Some days everything tastes a bit uninteresting to me. The Vapetto and Posset seem to be good all the time thankfully! Always nicer if I use a new coil though! It's me that's not functioning properly right now, not the tanks/batteries
I really should get another eye test - I need to use very lightweight specs for working & computer use ..which is a lot of hours in the day
altogether. If I don't get the lightest ones I can, I get terrible sinus pain from them resting on the bridge of my nose! Rather than buy another pair at £2-300, I'll need to go to vision Express to get them done the same day and just get the lens replaced. My local optician can take up to 10 days and I couldn't cope with my spare specs that long as they're heavier than the titanium ones I usually use.

Like you, I hate when there's a few things all clamouring for urgent attention ..always gets me in a tizz!

What a day! We've got caught up with everything, still not sorted out my devices yet but it's next on the list after a cuppa I'm usually very organised but this week has been a disaster.

Wet biscuit, I often get invited to my little boys tea party's!

I've been doing so well all week and not ordered anything, had to call to the retail park for birthday stuff and went via my new favourite vape shop, they are waiting for a delivery of T-juice which has still not arrived and I left with another taifun gt! Also called into town to collect my new glasses and picked up some aw imr batteries, got them home only to find they are flat top so I will have to take them back.

I've been using my OHs apple pie today, It's quite nice! Ordered it from joose juice, think it was less than £8 for a 30ml bottle and you get a second 30ml bottle free! We have used them before and I didn't really like any of the flavours, OH used all the apple pie before I tried it. We still have most of the others left over. He's got some captain custard mixed in with it but I might have to fill up a tank too!

I have needed glasses since I was little but I only ever wore them for driving until a couple of years ago, I really can't do without them now and only keep them off for swimming. I had some half frame titanium ones, they were my first driving glasses (got them when I started lessons) they were extremely thin and light but I was so worried about breaking them I never got any more, esp now with the kids my glasses have been bashed so much.

I'm going to keep my current frames, might use them again next time or have them made into a second pair for sunglasses, not sure but I still really like them so no point throwing them in the draw with the last 5 pair!

I seem to be constantly trying to catch up with everything! Stuff keeps getting in the way!
Ah, of course - that's how you know about wet biscuit taste!

I've only ordered liquids recently: some VG and some nicotine from CV, and three from Velvet Cloud
Had an order arrive from Nicoticket last Monday though: PBJ and Banana Puddin - both unusable I think because of the PG ...the banana one had me in a bad way by night and I'd only used it for 10 minutes in the afternoon.
I'm going to try some antihistamines though. Been reading up on closed airways and sometimes one of the three main drugs used in them can help. I have two types in the cupboard that have two of the three drugs, so I'll give them as try! I can always open the airways using Theophylline or Ventolin, but I'd rather not use them to much as it's not a good idea.
I also got 2x30ml bottles of the short special run of ACB (Absolut Crème Brulee) and it's lovely! Made in max VG so I can happily use it

I ordered some apple pie ones (1 with custard, 1 with cream) from Waves of Vapour and they never arrived - I'll need to email them again. I'm not the only one who had this happen to an order placed the same day.

I found I couldn't do close work without my specs at around 40, and gradually got so that I couldn't read any small print without them. Both sons have followed the same pattern too.
I hated needing to carry them around too! I always have a spare cheaper pair in the kitchen and a pair of the previous prescription on the bedside. The lightweight ones I use to work never leave my studio ...don't want to lose them!

We had a fab day sunday, the kids really enjoyed it (us too)!

Couldn't get the car booked in until yesterday so had lots of walking to do for the school run (and trying to carry the little ones) and was out getting the garden cut, I've got sun stroke! I've been in a mess since last night, feels like flu it's awful :-( Been to the park this morning (after the pain killers finally kicked in) then I had a nap! Luckily my OH had the day off work.

What's the creme brulee one? Is it from CV, I just looked but couldn't find it.

I've only had my captain custard for the last couple of days, I've washed everything out again and only have my kayfun running. I'm getting a bit bored of it now, hopefully I will feel better tomorrow. I think I'm going to have to keep a few tanks ready to fill, smoking was much quicker when you don't have the energy! It's almost 6 months otherwise I might have caved in until I felt better.

It's bed time for me, hope your waves of vapour order comes in. I still have got any vamp vape!

Really glad you had a good day on Sunday!
Hope you feel better today - too much sun isn't pleasant!

What's the creme brulee one? Is it from CV, I just looked but couldn't find it.

It's Nicoticket. Very nice for mixing with things or just by itself.
Wish I could have ordered some of the Frenilla and Strawnilla limited ones but they're all a PG/VG mix!

I've used the usual Mint choc Vapetto & Posset today, and some ABC tonight. I've got one empty clean Evod and an iClear 30S.
If you like lemon flavours you should try the Posset: lemon cream. Nice
Waves of Vapour likely won't be arriving. A message appeared on their site a couple of days back stating they were closed for the time being.
Myself and another person both had despatch emails on the same day and nothing arrived.
It was paid for via Paypal, so I've started a dispute with them. I'll probably escalate it with Paypal tomorrow as they haven't replied to my messages.
