Must admit, mine is similar. I'd probably scare myself, if I got everything out and photographed it all :laugh: Having said that though, I could find some hidden gems that I've not used for a while.



My Missus likes watching those hoarder type programmes. I keep leaving the kitchen door open when she watches them, but she never gets the hint to clean the mess up :laugh:

Sounds just like my house :laugh: But yeah the wifes the same and loves hoarders, just knocks me bloody sick though.

I use fasttech frequently and have never had a problem with them. All that i have recieved has been of quality and nothing broken or not working as well packaged. I amcurrently waiting on a delivery from them atm.

Same here really, out of the many orders i have had, i cannot recall having received anything broken or not as described. Definite from me. :toast:

You are certainly right about the lemon bar trisha, more cakey, and a sharper lemon. But i have noticed that the sharpness does melow after a bit of a steep :) I bet it would also be nice with a bit of the cream !
So, do you get that little hint of warm spice? To be honest, I'd prefer that sharpness to stay to keep it different, but it's still nice. Enjoying it as is for now, but will try probably the whipped cream ...I'm getting a hint of coconut cream from the sweet cream :unsure:
Think I could try the Vanishing oatmeal one from my previous order now as it'll be properly steeped!
Wish they'd send samples in the base I ordered - had two now that I can't use! ....zero nicotine too, so no good to you I think Terry.
I've still got the bottle of Apple Strudel ...do you want it, or didn't you like yours? It's a full size bottle they sent but 50/50 .6mg

Maybe customs are on a go slow at the moment, i just checked Again :laugh: and they still haven`t moved.
Don't know why everything has to slow down this time of year ..companies like UPS and the shops take on extra staff, so why not customs! ...mind you, if border control can't get it's staffing adjusted for peak times, we have no chance!

Have spent the best part of all afternoon assembling this: https://www.fasttech.com/product/1900000 which arrived today and sorting my desk out moving things around to accommodate it all:
That's quite nice - and I like the Fuschia one they have too ..perhaps not as practical/useful though. I tend to tuck my small stands behind the desk tidies containing proper office stuff :rolleyes:

They should give a referral discount too Trisha ;)
Not that bothered as long as others get the same deal I got! :) We don't buy enough to get concerned about such things.

That's the main reason why my Wife doesn't like shopping on-line. Despite my protestations about it being easier, she always says about them putting in alternatives.
Odd times, we do get a peculiar alternative, but with Tesco, you can leave a note for each item when you 'view full basket' - you can tell them whether you will or won't accept an alternative, and also what to get or what you don't want. Once the note is on something you buy regularly, it stays there unless you change it. Any alternatives are at the same price or lower.
For instance, if I buy steak the note says 'no grains or fat please' - and so far, we've never had a poor piece! We only have a 3oz piece each in order to keep the fat content low.
With the fresh fruit salads, I accept an alternative but stipulate no apple or melon.
With the morning Americano double coffee pods, I'll specify only Senseo seeing they can't tell the difference between a pod and a capsule not to mention different brands of machine! Duh!
The secret is to keep the instructions short & precise and you don't go far wrong - far more convenient and they'll take back anything you don't want. Credit within 2 days and if you could have got it cheaper elsewhere, you get a coupon code the day after in your email.
I used the special offer delivery saver - 6 months @ £1.50 per month as long as it's mid-week deliveries which is what I always get (better stocked shop).
With that saver plan I can have a delivery Tues, Wed & Thurs if I wanted as long as it's £75 or over. We only get one delivery each week though - and the bakery bread is baked to order that morning :)
All in all, it beats the hell out of going into the supermarket - it's full of people for goodness sake!!!

It's on the left hand side when you first log in Trisha. Lists all the new arrivals and when they were added. Also gives how many new items are listed that day.
I'll take a look next time I go there!

My Missus likes watching those hoarder type programmes. I keep leaving the kitchen door open when she watches them, but she never gets the hint to clean the mess up :laugh:
Anyone taking a close look at my paintings over a period of time will realise that I have a kind of hoard -- it's in a double cupboard, a glass cabinet, another glass cabinet, and various boxes and shelves! :facepalm:

By the way - has anyone tried the MT3s Kanger tank? - it's a 3ml and another that I can get 2.5ohm coils for.

Just googled and these 2 came up:
New Batch of VTC5s arrived
http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/batteries-chargers/625475-real-vtc5.html

Mine have the 2 indented rings around the top, the ones being sold only have one, and the Q-Code is darker (although mine is quite dark)

I agree mine also have the 2 indentations. Also on one of those links the 3 new ones he bought all have the same serial number. All my Sony vtc batteries have different ones and the 3 fake ones I bought all had the same as well, although different from those ones from ukecigstore. That's not encouraging for a shop as big as them.
Suppose it's a possibility - but one of those orders of mine is just coils and nothing else.
As for the batteries, I did wonder if things with fixed batteries were considered OK ...don't know. They do just mark them as 'electronic component', but surely the x ray checks show the batteries & wires :blink:

Can't complain about my MBV order: despatched 19th, here today ...and NT despatched 18th, here today. Took from Friday to get here from Heathrow though!
I got some of the lemon bar to try it before I have a go at making a bottle with concentrate ...not too sure how much to put in it as they state: We recommend the concentrated e-juice flavoring to be mixed at 15% - 40% with Unflavored Nicotine Juice. That's a fair bit even at 15%, let alone 40%

Anyway, I tried it right away and it's very different to Chefs I think - It's sort of like a cake my Dad used make that had a water icing made from thin rind, zest and squeezed lemon - quite a sharp lemon taste, and he used lemon curd in the middle of the cake! It was lovely :) If I take a medium sort of draw on the Lemon Bar it's good and I get a mild spice flavour somewhere in the background ..?nutmeg - if I take a longer draw it catches my throat and seems to be a very sharp lemon!

Chefs reminds me of a lovely Victoria sponge cake with plenty of fresh cream & lemon and coconut dusting on top. The Chefs LCCC is my favourite, but I do like the MBV one too - they're both a different sort of lemon.

I also got Whipped Cream and Vanilla Tobacco - both need to steep a while.
My initial mix with the lemon bar was at 20% and I think it's strong enough, although that's 50/50 pg/vg.

No i don`t get any spice trish, unlike the posset which i still haven`t sussed out yet. Tis a very nice vape though and in my favourite list :) It is weird how they send samples of something you never buy from them. I mean most of my orders have been 50/50 @ either 18 or 12 mg, yet they send me a sample of 6 mg Tis a raspberry tea one, and will probably just end up in the bin :laugh:

Thanks, and yes i will take the strudel trish, i got mine @ 18 mg, and found it very harsh at first, but it seems to have mellowed out now and is very nice :) I find it very much like their dutch apple pie, a nice juicy red apple with pie undertones.



mind you, if border control can't get it's staffing adjusted for peak times, we have no chance!

Very true i`m afraid. It`s only a matter of time. :(

Anyhoo Trisha, you know how your mod stand was broken when it arrived ? well i have got one here what you can have :) It`s the 16 hole accrylic one from fasttech. I have been doing a bit of organizing myself, and it`s yours if you want it !


By the way - has anyone tried the MT3s Kanger tank? - it's a 3ml and another that I can get 2.5ohm coils for.

I think you would be better looking at other threads for that info trish, i doubt anyone here uses them. :)

Thanks! I'll try 25% then :)

I think there's a bit of nutmeg in it ...just a little! The cream you use would smooth that out perhaps though.
It's different enough that I'll make a bottle for when I've used this one I just got!

As long as you don't mind .6mg! :) I'll send it ..and the coffee? - may be Monday before I get to the post office though - not looking forward to being in the car :( but will have to go to get that dratted Hana sent back.

Very true i`m afraid. It`s only a matter of time. :(
the country is falling apart! :(
Not postal delivery related, but have you seen the film Harry Brown? We saw it two nights ago and it's sad to think many older people are living in places like that where gangs rule and intimidate!

That's so kind of you! :) Depends if it'll fit on my desk ...I'm slowly depleting the space I need for work stuff!
Is it this one: $5.94 Acrylic 16 Hole Display Stand for E-Cigarette - fits devices up to 63/64"(25mm) in diameter at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping
If it is, it'll fit behind my main desk tidy! But if it's the square one, then I'm afraid it won't.

I can use one half of the broken one and I got that for the iSticks & MVP2's - the half that's usable will do nicely for those:https://www.fasttech.com/p/1531802

I think you would be better looking at other threads for that info trish, i doubt anyone here uses them. :)
I just thought seeing we all have to start somewhere, one of you would have had one :laugh:

You mean the intergrated hinges ? if you find any let me know please, ours broke on the freezer about two years ago :laugh: And she keeps moaning about it. :facepalm:
Terry - I forgot to tell you: you need the freezer model number and then try E-spares - our fridge is a Bosch so I put the model number in their search box, clicked on doors and hinges and there it was: pack of 2 hinges £26.
This is the fridge & freezer spares: Buy Fridge & Freezer Spares - Salad Drawers, Door Seals, Bottle Racks & More | eSpares | eSpares

Ordered yesterday afternoon around 4pm, arrived by DPD at 10am this morning ...fitted by son before lunch! (lucky he was on a day off) He knows the fridge and the outer door assembly etc. well because he fitted it all! :)

Second time this year E-spares has had something we needed: glass inset broke on the washing machine door a few months back!

Thanks Bob - missed a couple of those on the list by ordering last week, but they were only 10% ones, and Gremlin doesn't ship to the UK ...I do see that Indigo have 25% off though and I haven't placed an order with them yet! :thumb:

+1 for eSpares - the only thing they and others have fell down on is a replacement visor for my New Edition Cooker Hood, mind you it's over 20 years old :lol:

Probably too many on the Pre-order for what they originally asked for, so have had to increase their order and waiting for 2nd batch.

I went to Elegant Bob.
They promised delivery 20 days from order day with a free skin.
Can't winge just yet because it's only been about a week,can't remember which day i ordered it now.I'll have to check on their website.

My Orchid has and left Singapore a couple of hours ago, Shenzen is where FT and most of the ecig suppliers are located, it's just on the mainland Guangdong Province just north of Hong Kong island.
