Fantastic that the cherry is doing so well!
Our plum had four on it the first year and just as they were ready to pick, the birds nicked them :laugh: It had none last year and only a few branches with blossom this year ...so we'll have to see what happens. The quince had lots of blossom and so far, the little beginnings of fruit are still there, but we've seen most of them (if not all) drop off before developing into anything much - quince are temperamental things.
The fig seems very slow to produce even leaves this year, and the mulberry is the same, but they are slow. I think the fig is on Med time because it produced lots of figs right at the end of summer last year and they all died off with the first hint of cold! :)

Ha ha yes, some years our greengage will not produce anything at all but most of the time there is an abundance of fruit. we usually give most of it to neighbours as there is that much. i have made some nice wine as well but had to stop doing that as i was getting rat ars*ed on it.:laugh:

I remember a couple of years ago we were in greece on holiday and figs were everywhere, growing at the side of roads etc, same with grapes. Things always taste nicer when they are free don`t they. :D

Same here trish, after reading the description of them two, i don`t think they would be to my liking.


No it`s not just you trish, the darker liquids do gunk coils up very quickly.Thats where dripping comes in really handy.:D I am trying the confusion right now, and i have to say it is a wonderful vape. Very creamy caramel i get.

Keep away from that strawberry trish if you can.:ohmy:

I think when the small order I placed yesterday arrives, I'll have tried all the others apart from those two.

I thought that if I can get a good notion of which ones will cause gunking, I can then order some 30ml bottles and ask if they'll add more water to help with that and bump up the flavour to compensate for the water.
I'm surprised that the Mint Chocolate Vapetto hasn't gunked up my Evod, but so far and after three days of continual use, it hasn't. I love how realistic the chocolate flavour is!
I'm using Confusion too at the moment - had to add another 10ml to my order :)

I really like the Twisted and the Strawberry Vapetto, so I'll use them cautiously for a short while now and then and stop as soon as I get a hint of them affecting me ...hopefully that'll work! :|

:laugh: Greengage wine sounds lovely though! How about jam or chutney?

Oh indeed they do! :) I tutored a painting holiday for some people in Cyprus some years ago, and there were wonderful oranges, lemons, grapefruit and olives growing on roadside trees and even on waste scrub land. Lots of subject matter for them to use and we could then eat them! - lovely!

It`s great that the chef`s are accomodating your needs trish, and it does seem a bit strange that the mint choc vapetto isn`t causing the gunk issue, but hey ho that is vaping for you.:D

I think life will be made a bit easier for you when your dripping atties arrive trish, save a lot of messing about they do.

Yep the wifey makes some nice jam out of them as well trish, lovely on some toasted fresh bread, or fruit teacakes.:D Damn it i am getting hungry again now

I did think about getting an android PAYG. Perhaps I should!

I've tried most types except the iPhone and I really like the Android, I have the Samsung Note II (Phablet)

My cameras are Canon set on tripods and used for my work purposes - I get really good photos too at times (set-ups, finished work etc.), and some have to be used for publishing, but I've never used one of the cameras outside hand held!
Long time since I used a point & shoot lightweight one too.

I have a Nikon D300, serves its purpose, but I don't use it a lot, also have a small Fuji lightweight one, that gets used even less.


Guess to people that don't know about Epilepsy, it probably seems scary and strange. To me, it's just something that happens, I don't tend to think about it until after it's ended. I just go into automatic and sort out the immediate incident. Afterwards, it's a case of - glad I managed to get her breathing during the seizure.

I'm lucky that way, no problems with my wife's breathing

That's a lovely looking piece of kit Bob - not seen that one before. Good price too. Squonking does take a bit of getting used to. Took me a day or two to get over the flooding stage, but the Vmods are what I use at work all day - their that dependable.

Yes, it did look good for the price, had been thinking about the Reo, but it is from 'Over There' and more expensive, especially once you add on the Duty and VAT that HMRC will add on, I did look at the VMOD after you mentioned it, but again it's only 'Over There', someone did do it over here, but not now. I presume you were squeezing too much to cause the flooding, I'll have to remember that.

I know i have said it before Ian, but it looks like i am getting close to my five or six ADV`s and i will be happy with that. Not that i will stop being adventurous in trying different juices, but in the 19 month`s i have now been vaping it has been a bit of a hard trek. It can also get very expesive buying juices then find out you can`t stand them.

Literally like chucking money down the drain if you know what i mean.

I keep a text file on the computer with all the juices I have tried, giving them marks out of ten, so far I have 7 that get 10 and about 10 that get a 9, but only 4 so far that I can class as an ADV, not that I would stick with an ADV anyway, I prefer to have about 10 on the go at once, switching between them throughout the day. I've also wasted a bit of dosh on flavours I've found to be not to my liking, most I have given to my mate, his tastes are different to mine, a couple I have just chucked.

Yes, talk about food at this time of night and I always get hungry! I had marmalade on toast around 10pm, but jam and teacakes makes me hungry again! :D
Subject matter can also be food to me! :)

Well, I'm not sure that they will add more water plus flavour to compensate, but I can ask! :)

Thinking about the chocolate vapetto one, I do think that the genuine Kanger coils last longer than the shorter ones found in the cheaper Evods & kits, and it's the longer stemmed Kanger one that's in the Evod with the chocolate. Perhaps they're a bit more resilient.
The one in my sweet tobacco type flavours Evod lasted for weeks before I needed to change it.

The drippy thing sounds like more faff to me, but from what you say that's not so. I may get them on Tuesday - got a despatch email today.

Well i am getting a snack now before bed so night all. see you later.
Nite Terry :)

I've just re-ordered 60ml of SD&C. Terry running out made me think i dont want to do the same! It has immediately become my ADV. I tend to really like a juice, completely overdo it by having far too much of it and then not having it again for a while, but the SD&C really does seem like a keeper, definitely one of my favourites and it's ridiculously moreish. Much nicer than anything i have had through zamplebox.

Totally agree with you on the moreish side of things cody, I am now on my third bottle since discovering chefs vapour and i will buying a lot more in the future. And i am more than happy that i didn`t try zamplebox now.:laugh:

It's always nice when vapemail arrives, especially with the long wait for FT! What do you think of the drip tips on the tridents? I cant use them, far too big and thick for my liking.

On the subject of vapemail my GVC arrived today. I ordered it on Friday from Bulgaria and it's here on the Monday. God Bless DHL ;)

The only negative i have with the SD&C so far is that it clogged up my carto pretty quick so i couldnt be bothered messing around and just put another carto in the tank and it clogged that one too. I'm trying another juice in these cartos now as i'm not sure if they are just a bit rubbish. I usually get smok ones from Vape Escape, but i got a batch from C9V this time and they only have one hole punched in them and C9V on the side and dont seem as good as my normal ones. I've got 25 Ikenvape Nitro cartos in the post, which have been recommended by a few people on here as being the best carto out there so looking forward to getting them and hoping it is just a poor batch of cartos as the SD&C tastes great in them until they get too clogged to vape.

Yes it is a thick juice cody, did you get 50/50 ? The other thing you could do is use the kayfun to save your stock of carto`s. I can run about 3 tankfulls through my kayfun, before doing a dry burn and re-wick.

The V2 looks better to me just looks better built and the air flow ring moves nice and smooth.

They come with 2 coils pre-wrapped but I bailout I wanna re-coil them and cotton.

What shall i go for? Single coil?

Thats all i build mine with, as i vape high nic juices i reckon a dual would be a bit too much.

I had a quick look at the Samsung ones but there's so many of them I found my eyes glazing over just reading the specs! I'm in no hurry so I'll get back to is when I have more time to look properly.

My cameras are two Canon 450D - just knocked the tripod over a couple of weeks ago and damaged one, but I'll be OK with the one I still have until I can get a newer model.
I'm not one for photography, so it's a necessary evil to me!

Pity there always seems to be a downside when we find something so nice! I have the same problem with that and the Jamaican Ginger.
I've been using the SD&C in an eSmart for some days now and it's still working OK so far!

I'm thinking that if I keep watching for good prices on Kanger coils, I can use those liquids in Evods and just replace the coil when they get clogged up. I found some for £1 each today so compared to cigarettes, it's not so bad.

Not sure if it's my imagination, but those longer stemmed ones found in the Kanger stamped Evods seem to last better than the unstamped ones with shorter stem coils.

I haven't tried washing and dry burning them yet ...something else to try! :unsure:

OUCH! hope it can be repaired/replaced fairly cheaply, another expensive hobby you have, my best mate and ex-work colleague who now lives in Antwerp has the 450D and he likes it, I had a couple of Canons pre digital days but had to sell them, the Nikon is the first I have had since then, managed to clear all my debts so had enough to buy one before I decided to retire.

The Samsung Galaxy series are very nice but they put a lot of crap apps on their phones, so you have to spend a few minutes re-arranging the home screens to put them in the general space rather than on the home screens, the HTC are also supposed to be a very good, but I can't comment on them, but don't decide too quick, do some research so that you can see the pros and cons.
