I've got some GVC and CLS to keep me ticking over :) I'm trying to be frugal with the GVC though, it's so damned nice i really dont want to run out! I noticed that on the GVC website last weekend it was saying open and restocked from 830am on Monday. I didnt get on the site until the monday afternoon and no joy, all gone :(

Cinnamon Danish Swirl!!!!!!! When im away as a treat they are my breakfast of choice :drool:

You have to be quick with GVC, it all goes within a couple of hours, managed to get my order in for 100ml :)

Yeah, I'll certainly have to be quicker off the mark next time if i order from the main site. I've only had about 5ml of the 50ml bottle i got from vapouraert though, so it will just have to last me.

You do realise that you are paying more for it on Spiritus, better to wait until you want to get a few of NTs juices and order direct from Nicoticket

I would do if i was ordering a reasonable amount, but i'm just at the stage of trying out their juices at the moment, which leads me onto my next point nicely....

I thought my loki tank from vaperev in USA might have arrived today, alas there was just a card with a customs fee to pay in my postbox. The tank, once delivery had been added came to about £45, which is already 50% more than one from IBTanked or a big boaby from alba vapours but i have to pay a customs charge of £7.54 plus a royal mail handling fee of £8 making this tank twice the price of my other good carto tanks. I really hope the glass has arrived without damage (it comes with 35mm and a 45mm tube) as you cant buy replacement glass tubes for them so i will be really ...... if there is damage.

I do wish they'd sort out a method of paying the import duty/tax at source rather than having that ridiculous Royal Mail charge added on top!
Also, the last time I had something delivered by UPS from abroad, they charged me £11 extra!

Ridiculous isnt it, but if they are making money out if it they wont change. I dont mind paying a bit, but having to pay more than a third extra is BS.

I had a reply from Lew at Chefs Vapours this morning - seems Karl had definitely made my order in VG, but forgot to put new labels on the bottles!
He did wonder if it was the PG in the flavouring, but I don't get a problem with the LT ones with just PG in flavouring.
Lew said that if I let him know which ones do give me a problem, he'll try and identify what it is that causes it.
That will be a great help! To me, it seems like the vanilla/custard issue I had some time ago with some of that type.

Seeing I got no problem until my second order, it doesn't seem to be anything used in Jamaican Ginger or the two coffee ones, but is obviously in one or more of the other dessert/pudding ones. I'll be trying one at a time to try and identify which ones, and I'll let him know - that way, I'll be able to avoid any similar by asking him about whatever it is that causes it before ordering.

They've obviously been very busy, so that'll be why I didn't know until today that I did actually get VG only in my last order. At least now I know it's most likely a type of flavouring.

I'm really happy that he's going to try and help identify what causes the problem :) Another Gold Star for CV ...excellent customer service!


Sometimes they just forget to send you a despatch e-mail, you never know the juices might just land on the doormat tomorrow :D

I was the same allergy wise - never had any issues before. But started vaping and realised I have a slight intolerance to high PG juices. I can still vape them, but not constantly.

Well, I didn't get my order from CV today, so it'll have to be Tuesday probably. On the plus side, I do have the Jamaican Ginger 30ml bottle and will be happily using it today!
It'll also give me the chance to try one or two of the other pudding ones individually to see if they produce any problems for me.

Plus, I have a few new LT ones that arrived this morning. There's one called Lemonade that smells really mouth wateringly lemony! :)
and there's a few other interesting ones too: Pinacolada, Tiramisu, Black Magic (blackcurrant cream), and Cherry Cigar.

Feeling optimistic about being able to identify that problem soon and avoid it in future.

Anyhoo in other news, my first cv order has been dispatched and the second order is being processed. They also replied to my request regarding the trifle, quick that as i only contacted them last night...This is their reply Trish.

They really are fantastic people at chefs Trish, I can honestly say that i don`t think i have experienced such a great service from anywhere else, and they really go out of their way to help (As you have proved):D

You know i tried the black magic ages ago from LT, i had forgotton all about that juice it is really lovely and tasty. You have got something to look forward to there Trish.:)

Hi..

I am indeed working on a trifle a Caribbean trifle..Thats all I can say at the moment but maybe you can guess whats its going to be about.

Ooh! Personal preference is for a raspberry trifle, but from them, I'll bet it'll be delicious! Just wondering if I'll actually be able to use it now! Just have to see what can be found out in the meanwhile.
Caribbean ...wonder if that means things like mango or guava etc. and perhaps rum with the sponge, custard & cream! That sort of thing would be rather tasty! Oh heck ..and I just ate a good sized meal, but I want some trifle now! I'll go and find my Jamaican!

Yes, I may have waited a while for a reply, but now I've had one, I'm more than happy. I was just a bit surprised not to get some sort of confirmation that I had indeed been sent VG despite the labels. No worries, and with luck, he'll be able to pinpoint what it is that gives me that problem.
I hope the Spottedick isn't one of them! It grew on me quite a lot! I love the Strawberry Vapetto too, as well as the others, but those two are perhaps my favourites after the Jamaican and coffee ones.
I'm trying not to think about the Confusion either until I find something out. I think that apart from being lovely on it's own, Confusion could be teamed with a number of other things to add an extra dimension!
In amongst the order on it's way, there's some of their other ones that theoretically shouldn't give me any problem as they aren't custard/vanilla type ones. I wanted to try them because so far, everything I've had from them has tasted very good.

The really good thing is, I have that nice big bottle of Jamaican Ginger! :2cool:

I had to try that LT Black Magic when you mentioned it! Nice! and no doubt better soon :) Flemming told me some weeks ago that they should all be usable right away even though they'll likely improve with a little time. He was right too, but I have found some better after a while.
I tried the Lemonade: very lemony and rather nice! Refreshing too. Had a taste of the Tiramisu too, but although I can definitely taste it, I think it too will be better in a week.

Ha yes we will all be playing the guessing game untill it arrives on the shelves. My guess would be...Maybe sponge fingers with coconut cream, and raspberry and or strawberry with custard.:D Maybe a bit ambitious eh ? but whatever it is i reckon it will be another winner.
EDIT I forgot the rum.:p

Now that does sound nice, i quite like a citric juice now and then. I had the orange from there and found it nice and refreshing.

Well you lot have been busy while I was away :laugh:

Speaking of customs charges, my last order from Zeus juice, when it came through, it had the sticker on it to say duty and handling fee payable. Just over a quid on duty and 8 quid handling fee :ohmy: I was at work when it arrived, the Wife didn't pay the fees and neither did my Step Son. Result, RM had forgotten to charge me the fees :laugh: I'm wondering if I should let them know they've missed out on payment :evil:

Sounds like you're all getting good CS from CV, I've not had anything myself from them yet. But if their that good, I'll have to order at some point - maybe in about 3 years time when I run my juices down a bit :p

LOL i have seen it all now. I am just taking a peek at LT, and believe it or not they now do a cheese and onion juice.:lol:

That sounds almost as bad as FT's Italian cheese and hot dog flavours :laugh: Please don't say you've already ordered some Terry :p

Far from it! Never have worked out how they know the time either ...even when the clocks change by an hour!

Oh no, don't forget the rum! ;) Whatever, I reckon it will be nice!

maybe he just forgot trish, they do seem to be busy.
I think probably, yes. Plus, with the long weekend coming up, they'd want to complete their orders.

Now that does sound nice, i quite like a citric juice now and then. I had the orange from there and found it nice and refreshing.
It is a nice sharp lemon - a definite taste of real lemonade. Definite already, but unless it deepens in flavour, not as strongly flavoured as the orange (I have that one too and like to put a little in a mild tobacco one now and then, or put a couple of drops of whipped cream flavour in it).
Actually, their Cheezy lemon is quite sharp and refreshing too, as is the LB Fresh (Lime Ball Fresh) it isn't menthol tasting but is cool. I'm quite fond of mixing plain lime with the LB Fresh. Gives a nice clean, sharp citrus without being bitter. I hear the Lemon Mix is good too, plus the Lemon, but I didn't think too much of the plain lemon by itself ..mixes nicely with the Cheezy Lemon though.

LOL i have seen it all now. I am just taking a peek at LT, and believe it or not they now do a cheese and onion juice.:lol:
Now that was one I just didn't want to try!
If you like a nice warm honey/caramel taste, the Nangka is nice and mellow. And, if you like the sound of it, the Champus Fresh is like cool champagne :) I liked the Silky Peach Fresh too. Another very good one is the Blackberry: really nice!

Nice work with the 'quotes' Terry! :)

Yes, too many different ones to get our head around!

...I don't think the RM will fold because you didn't get to pay the fees! ;)

They sound awful! I have seen others with flavours like roast beef ....ugh! Prefer that in-between two slices of malted wholemeal with horseradish sauce!
Anyway, the woofers would come looking for the cheese & hot dogs! They were bad enough with the Jamaican ginger ..they thought I had some cake or biscuits!

Anyway, all this talk of food: supper time - I'm having some toast with thick cut marmalade & a fresh cup of tea! :)
