My younger brother is just like you mate,

If he gets a cough he`s looking up allsorts on the net, then walking around Shi*&ing himself untill he sees the doctor, who tells him ah it`s just a bit of an infection nowt to worry about.

I just don`t understand why some people put themselves through it :p

To be honest, I'm normally pretty bullet proof. I've got to be on death's door before I go to the Dr's. But I've had this cyst now for about 10 years and the last few months it's started getting bigger. I blame the Wife, she was moaning at me to get it checked it, so I did. Illnesses don't bother me, I'm just a wimp when it comes to pain :laugh: Anyway, tomorrow it will all be over :)

I see that FT have another kayfun now :

https://www.fasttech.com/product/1552300

To me it looks just like a Rocket. Don't think I'll be ordering it though, it's made by Tobeco - not the best manufacturer out there.

It does look like the rocket mate, but the seals look better. At nearly $18, you would be better just getting a rocket and some new seals.
I don`t mean you personally Ian i know you have got 3 rockets :p

Ah, you'll be fine Ian - this time tomorrow you'll be wondering what you were worried about and enjoying the nice strong painkillers lol. I do exactly the same thing, anything I've gotta have done I read up on it then convince myself any complications that could happen will happen. I'm sure you'll be right but good luck anyway mate.
At least your internets sorted! We moved in here in June and BT were meant to come end of July. Cancelled us til 8th October, didn't turn up, phoned them had a go and was told 31st October. 31st came and went, other half phoned this time kicking off and got told 9th December. Last week we still hadn't had confirmation, spotted Sky had an offer on for a free tablet and better price monthly than BT, so cancelled BT and went with Sky, TV's already in and working, the tablets been put away for one of boys Christmas presents and they'll do our phone and net next Tuesday, which is only the day after BT promised but after all the messing about I doubt they'd of turned up! Be so glad to have it in, relying on phones and iPad is a pain just for me messing about, other half does a lot of design work from home and the files can take hours to download/upload running laptop through iPad.
Anyway on a not moany note - ITV have just shown an advert for VIP vape stuff!!!!

You're making me sound like a bit of a hoarder mate :laugh:

I really need to get my rockets up and running soon. Speaking of seals, I found one on the kitchen floor today, not got a clue what it's out of though mate.

We've been with Sky for a while now Claire, must admit they've always been pretty quick sorting things out, unlike BT. I know I'll be fine tomorrow, I'm just the sort of person that likes to think outside the box sometimes. Not really worried about complications, I just like being nosey. Combine the noseyness and lateral thinking, not a good combination :laugh:

Anyway, enough talk of scalpels. I've heard quite a few e-cig adds on the radio too when I've been in the car. The main one is for a shop in Manchester, plus I've seen quite a few newspaper adds too. The more vaping ads the better I reckon :)

Yeah as i said earlier, we went down hyde today and VIP had a stall in the mall,(not manned) lol, plus they have one in ashton.Whenever i walk past these places they never seem to have any customers Queuing up though.

Perhaps more people know about FT than we know :toast:

My sister uses VIP liquid a fair bit at home Terry. It's the only one that her Fella says he can't smell when she vapes it. I tried some of her liquid, to be honest, I wasn't that impressed with it. Tastes just like any old generic juice that most shops sell, guess I've been spoiled with GVC and my DIY stuff.

LOL you will find out where that seal comes from, as soon as you get a gobfull of juice :p Talking of liquid there is a stall on ashton market, and i saw juicy fruit liquid; it may have been vip (not sure) I have to say i was half tempted as i have never seen it anywhere else.

Thanks for putting my mind at ease mate - not :laugh:

When I went last week to get it checked out. The Dr said have you tried squeezing it, I said no. He said, can I try draining it then, I said no problem. He was literally stood on my chest, squeezing the thing. This cheezy, stinky, rancid puss shot out 3 feet across the room. The smell was bloody awful mate, made me gag.

Shouldn't really have looked on the internet for cyst removal, but I got curious. I thought it will be a small cut, drain it and clean it, job done, But oh no, they cut the whole thing out. For me it's right where I've got a tattoo, so my demon's head is gonna have a 10mm piece missing from it, it's an evil looking tatt to start with, now it's gonna look evil and deformed :laugh:

I really hope it is not infected. I had a round a few years ago with a reoccurring one on the back of my neck. I let it go until it got infected and was bothering me, the shots to numb it didn't work, I think my finger groves are still in his table where I was gripping it from the pain. Had a hole in my neck 1" diameter and 1/4" deep for a week until he could sew it up. As such he didn't get it all out and it came back again. Stupid me I let it get infected again, same pain but not as big of a hole. Then the third time it came back I went in soon as it started, no infection so no pain. That has been several years ago and I guess he got it all the third time. Like I said, I really hope it is not infected. If not you will only feel the needle to numb it. And yes the puss does smell something awful, like something crawled in there and died and rotted.

Good Luck.

Ha ha Terry, exactly right - can't count the amount of times I've had something piss juice all over me and thought ah, that's what that little plastic bit on the kitchen floor was from!
Glad to hear Sky are on the ball Ian, faith was completely gone with BT when they failed repeatedly to even inform us installation was being postponed, dread to think what they'd of been like when they were actually taking our money and something messed up - plus with Sky I can add sports, cancel when footy stops and restart it in September :D
Tbh that's what made me so angry at BT, I've missed half the bloody season!!!!!
Right, doing Christmas juice order, getting my faves from TripHammer, Joose Juice and Alchemists Cupboard - you guys recommend any to try out? I like sweets bakery and custards, fruits if they're strong and not synthetic, but I'll try pretty much anything except tobacco! Already got key lime from JJ marked thanks to Terry :)

I am sure you will love the key lime claire, honestly i could vape it all day and not get fed up with it :)

In other news i think my kick, may have kicked the bucket lol. I have it in my chi with my rocket on top, and out of the blue no vape :p
At first i thought it may have been the rocket, as i put a new coil in last night.

Anyhoo, threw it on the TVS BRASS claire, not chrome :lol: and it is firing :blink:. put a nipple top 350 in the chi, rocket back on firing no probs. So it can only be the kick !

You're probably right mate. It's only a small seal though (about 10mm) so I don't think it's a tank seal. I'm sure I'll find out soon though.

Thanks Burnie. I'm pretty sure it's not got infected yet, I've never had any leakage and from what I can tell (from the part that isn't under my tattoo) it's not red. The doctor told me he will be giving me a course of antibiotics afterwards, so that should help. Plus, I do tend to heal up pretty quickly.

Sky have been great with any problems, always apologise when you ring up and so far their CS has been great for us. I'm not a footy fan, but we did upgrade to HD - so I could get the F1 channel. A mate of mine does upgrade for the football though, then cancels it at the end of the season. We also got a wireless box with the router, so we can download the catch-up TV without the sky box being connected to the router - it's got some flashy lights on the front too :laugh:

Terry and Cody are probably the best ones to ask about juices from those vendors, I've not got mine through yet.

Amyway, I'm off for a TV session now.

See you all tomorrow.

Night claire pleasant dreams :)

I sorted the rocket/kick, it was nothing to do with the kick at all, it was the rocket. When i re-coiled it last night, the screw in the centre of the 510 conection must have loosened a bit, tightened it up and everything is hunky dory.

I am a silly sausage sometimes :p

Oh BTW claire, i know you don`t do tobacco juices, and the caramel from jj comes under tobacco but you can`t taste any, just lovely sweet caramel.

It's good to know that you've gotten the cycst removed, Ian... 10 years is a looooooooooooooooooong time for you to let one sit. I have 2 lymph nodes that give me issues 1-2x a year, I just drain them with a drawing salve like Tea Tree Oil or Boil-ease, and continue about my business =]

The hubby returned home early from work this AM, he's had the shakes for a bit now and yesterday I lit into him about how bad they've gotten. Lo and behold he took my rant to heart and went to see the doctor for an exam. He'll be off of work for a few days and will wait for the results of his blood tests and at the start of January they'll be checking his neuro-side.

Not much going on for me today, my day off... just did reviews on FastTech juice from 1 to 2.5 months ago LOL I think my December vape budget will be going to FastTech juice... tobacco juices, specifically =]

I make my own tobacco juices now. Not that hard, little Virginia flue cured leaf from leafonly, pg (as it strains better than vg) and 3 to 4 weeks to let it macerate. I do a 10% with 5% TFA coffee at 50/50 and it is all I vape, all day every day. Should look into DIY as it cost $1 or so to make 60ml of concentrate, enough for me to make 600ml juice. I have a couple of hundred ml macerating now that should be ready by the end of the year. Lets see, $20+ for 30ml concentrate or less than a $1, no brainier to me. Just a thought if you like tobacco juice.
