Anyway, last day in work tomorrow for me. Then 9 days off, yes 9 :D

I don`t want to go through the process of sending it back to be repaired or replaced, as that is just one big headache, but if you asked me if i would buy from here again, the answer would be a very big NO.

Here's part of your review mate, I can see it just fine.

RM card arrived - got a nice card from RM saying they are holding my Odin hostage, until I pay them £16.61 :(

Blinking terrorists, I'm waiting to see if Fedex send me a Tax demand for my last lot of MBV, but at least they delivered it first.

8-o Good job I'm not superstitious, hospital sent me a letter today, got to go in for my procedure on Friday 13th February 8-o

I've been lucky recently with customs duty so can't really complain. It is a $60 atty, so £8 duty aint too bad, just the extra charge that RM add that pees me off :(

It will be a lucky day for you that day Bob :) Just don't walk under any ladders on the way to the hospital :ohmy:

Thanks bob, i was looking at the review tab on the left of the page :p

That's for Site reviews rather than product reviews, to be honest, they cannot be expected to test every single item, so it's really down to the maker or supplier if it is a kit, so for the IPV, Pioneer's fault, and the charger, well yes I would blame GH as they did not do a recall, but depending on who put the charger in the kit then it is them who are initially at fault.

Best way of doing it mate :D

I'm going to watch some TV now anyways.

So catch you all tomorrow, after my last work day. Did I say that I've got 9 days off :laugh:

Night all.

Working fine now thanks Trisha. Looks like we've both had a good excuse for being AWOL though :laugh:
Been pretty tied up with searching for stuff again tonight too ..while looking for the other stuff last night, I saw something else from a few years back describing a handful of colours I'd used on something else ..sparked my interest as it had turned out well ..could I find it again today? ...could I hell! :(
Why on earth didn't I tag it with an 'info' tag!

I'd maybe go a bit higher with the coffee mix 2%, but 1% with the fruit mixes. It's just trial and error though, as you know, start low and gradually work up. With the FA cream though, I'd go up in very small amounts - like 0.5%.
OK, I'll make a note of that! thanks:)

4 years is a good lifetime for a computer. I think most electronics these days are "engineered" to fail after so long. Or is that just me being cynical :laugh:
This one was built by them to order as is standard with this company, and incorporated a couple of upgrades I asked for too. I said I wanted it build like a tank :laugh: As such, it'll probably go on for a couple more years maybe with a few upgrades or replacements, but seeing my 'life' is in this darn thing, I better look after it. I do back up every night and also have a notebook the same company built for me a year ago that is networked to this main one. It has 3 drives, and the one kept for images is 86GB.
I don't update the downloaded stuff on it nearly as much as I should, but do try now and then using those zip drives.
They're great if I get a problem ..their tech guy mooches around by remote and fixes it! :)
So, not sure if I should get them to analyse it's performance etc. and perhaps send some replacement parts ..eldest son is good with building computers, and this one is out of warranty now anyway.

There's a thought - I've always been aware that nicotine causes 'carpets' of dirty felt like fluff to build up inside the case of the tower, but now I'm wondering how they cope with the residue from PG/VG? My windows and desk etc. need regular cleaning ..cleans easily, but can't be taking the computer to bits every week or so! Definitely not going to start using it outside either!

One of my mates, used to have the plastic carpet runners in his hallway to protect the carpet. Plus a range of slippers in the hallway, so that all visitors could take off their shoes at the door and don a pair of slippers. Once the kids arrived, the slippers went in the bin along with the carpet runners :laugh:
I suppose we all get precious about things at times.

Vape mail today :D
CV order arrived - couple of flavourings and some Steamgunk strawberry cream tart.
I have some of that ..it's not bad - prefer the Strawberry Vapetto and Strawnilla though ...such a shame it doesn't come in VG! I've been using a 20% Strawnilla to 80% Strawberry Vapetto mix ..brilliant! ..but still a bit too much PG sadly.

NT order arrived - Strawnilla and The Doodle, plus my first ever free sample, Roundhouse.
Doodle seems OK to me ..again, not in Max VG! Roundhouse though is Max VG, and I haven't been back to it since it was tried out. Very Rose forward initially, then the cherry comes out with a laid back tobacco. I think you could likely make something out of it after it steeps for a good while. It has it's devotees ..bit like Marmite this one. I was thinking only recently of trying it with something like cream or custard added!
My biggest 'sad' ones are Virus and Wakonda ..both are terrific and not really what I'd call tobacco ones.

RM card arrived - got a nice card from RM saying they are holding my Odin hostage, until I pay them £16.61 :(
It wouldn't irk people if the customs people sent an email to people requesting payment for the tax ..after all, it's them that wants it and I don't see why we should pay RM £8 for collecting it, nor (I think it was UPS) £11 for the same.

Just cacelled mine dave, i got to thinking...Do i really need another mech ??? :laugh: So cancelled that and got a Hana instead :toast: One with no battery supplied, so it can come on the plane. :D
:laugh: what colour is it? As you know I got the one with fixed batteries, and that was sent via Singapore Post quoted at 6-20 days.

Blinking terrorists, I'm waiting to see if Fedex send me a Tax demand for my last lot of MBV, but at least they delivered it first.
Hopefully they won't!

8-o Good job I'm not superstitious, hospital sent me a letter today, got to go in for my procedure on Friday 13th February 8-o

Not a good way of doing things! They need to rethink it in these days of electronic wizardry!

Could you not search through your history trish ? It may take a while to find it, but it will be there. :)




:laugh: what colour is it? As you know I got the one with fixed batteries, and that was sent via Singapore Post quoted at 6-20 days.

A lovely neutral Grey trish :laugh:, Should blend in nicely with black, blue, and silver. :D

I searched the whole computer and can't find it.
I found it last night by just searching in Outlook for the name of the colour we were looking for info on and there it was in amongst the resulting emails from 2010!
I'd tried lots of words to search for too - it was a custom mixed colour that I use that he called Aqua Grey and I searched for those two words separately, together and also blue. Somewhere amongst the many results, I found the info where I'd done some plums with a blue background and I not only talked about the mix for that blue background, but the three/four reds & dark purple/violets that I'd used for the plums ..looked at the image of it and though, yes - need to paint more using those colours!!! Drat ..didn't copy and paste the info into the image tag words! Just though that I'd go back to it today and copy it in then.
I'm wondering if I inadvertently clicked on delete while going through them all, because I did come across some stuff I didn't need anymore ..wouldn't delete it deliberately, but could have done so by accident! Grr!

You like the monochrome palette! ;) Nice! I rather like the emerald green they do those into! :facepalm:

The forum server keeps going down this past half hour ....hope it stays up now.

I've been using the Chefs PMP tonight - used a couple of ml. It's very nice! I reckon I'll get more when this 30ml is getting low. It's good on it's own, but I can also see it being good with custard or vanilla, and even some other fruits.
Mostly using Chefs altogether this past week plus the MBV White Ice & White Out ..both really good ones. I'll give the Vanishing cookie another try in a few days.

May try a little of those two I made from some concentrates around 10 days ago soon too.

I'm still trying to work out a way to get something similar to the NT Virus! I know it's got a NET in it, but also there's maple and perhaps caramel, vanilla, ...there's a sort of almond/latte/mocha taste in there too. It certainly doesn't taste like tobacco! I do have Maple, Waffle, Vanilla Tahity (almond), other vanillas, coffee/cappuccino & caramel flavouring ..just need to get my head around the how!

Problem is they would probably not know who to email, after all it's mostly just a name & address on the parcel.

Hopefully they won't!
:thumbs: fingers crossed :thumbs:

That's what they say in the letter but normally have to take PJs just in case

True, but if they asked for an email address on the websites it could perhaps be in the barcode stuff ..I don't know, but in this age of superb technology, ripping people off via the RM just has to be avoidable.

:thumbs: fingers crossed :thumbs:
Absolutely! :)

I'll keep toes crossed that all goes perfectly and you're home the same day! :)

Yes i do trisha, no choice really being colour blind:facepalm: Mine has been playing up as well, keeps saying `Database error` :confused:

I`m gonna get some more posset next time i order from chefs, it is a nice clean tasting lemon. I do like a good lemon trish Ian :laugh: And hope you have some success with your mixing. :)

I've given up stressing about it for now. May just forget about it anyway! I've wasted hours tonight trying to find it again only to think perhaps I accidentally deleted it!

I just saw a daub of the new Aqua Blue paint that my friend has made and tubed for me ...looks lovely. He also made a custom green for me that is perfect as a base for leaves. A lovely dense calm mid-green that can be altered in many ways with small additions ..much the way we can tinker around with flavours! :) I was running low on it (a tube of paint lasts me ages because I use thin layers) so he's made me another tube!
I do feel lucky to have two sets of colours made specifically to suit my own work :)

Yes i do trisha, no choice really being colour blind:facepalm: Mine has been playing up as well, keeps saying `Database error` :confused:
According to the window I got coming up, Windows stated that my browser was fine, my connection was fine, but that ECF's server wasn't! At least I knew not to start looking at potential problems!
You really colour blind? ...I would hate that - in fact, I'd likely be a rubbish painter!

You like a good lemon? ..would never have guessed! :laugh: Yes, Posset is very good - I still use it just about every day ...Nautilus needs filling up again right now with it, but I'm also using my Mint Choc Vapetto too. It's often my late night 'go to' :) Both have been in a mini Nautilus on an MVP ever since I first got them!
After those two, the Doughnut and Lemon CCC have been in every day use with two of my iSticks! :)

I'll take a mooch through my paint 'store' - it's a 15 drawer stationery cabinet with colour tags on the ID slots on the front of each. With luck I'll trigger some recognition for what I read about last night in the red and violet drawers! :facepalm:

That lovely Orang-utan Energy ad is on again ...I love that! - the video on their site shows the whole thing and also another video showing how it was made ..Hollywood class film technology/making!: Maya - SSE Scottish Hydro
