It will probably be your i-sticks trish, i know mine is cos my other order is still in china :)
Oddly enough, it's the coils order that hasn't landed here yet - both placed same day, both despatched a couple of days later!

I got the liquids as well this morning, and thanks :toast:
You're welcome! :) I've been waiting for a promised beta liquid at NT: Peach tobacco announced a couple of weeks ago to be 6mg Max VG - brilliant, something I can order ...until today he says it was flat with VG so they made it 50/50 :(
I've had way less trouble with breathing since I stopped adding a percentage of PG/VG ones to 80% max VG, but there's nothing for me to buy there now. The Radioactive that came up this week is 50/50.
Apparently there'll be a VG range of something at some point, but I haven't a clue what or when.

The Sharks & The Jets - another great musical - "Maria, I once met a girl named Maria" :)
It was well made - perhaps with it being based on Romeo & Juliet. To me it stood out from the usual musicals.

The last Sony I bought was when they still did CRT TVs - blinking tube went a week after the guarantee ran out - never bought another Sony product since, downstairs the wife has a 37" Tosh FV Full HD with a LG SmartBox and we use a Sky box to record anything that she wants to see that clashes and in my room I have a 40" Sammy Smart FV Full HD both bought from Tesco at a ridiculously low price, my system upstairs is set up so that the YouView, Sky and Blu-Ray player are all connected through a Kinivo switch to the HDMI 1 input on the Sammy and everything controlled by a Logitech Harmony 650 remote, I use the YV box to record terrestrial channels and the Sky box for anything else and watch most of my stuff later in the week/month, usually late at night when there is nowt worth watching.
I do find TV rather complex these days - I prefer a single function item rather than multi purpose 'smart' things. All these different types of viewing things such as Freeview, Sky, YouView, Blu-Ray, HD, etc. etc. just messes with my head!
It was much simpler when there was an on button and channel numbers :laugh:

I would have got multi room but flatly refuse to prove a TV is in the same house by plugging it into a telephone socket. I was very glad to get rid of all our extension sockets when I had a new master socket fitted in here and use DECT cordless extensions.
They should have a system that picks up proof by using the wi-fi signal from my router! :lol:

Well I am off work tomorrow. Plus my Step-son got me a big bottle of coke for my birthday (amongst other things), he keeps on having a cheeky swig though. So I have to use up the coke, before he nicks it all. Be rude not to pop a slug of JD in with the coke.

That's my excuse and I'm sticking to it :laugh:

Yeah you best drink it else the coke will go flat and I see that sort of thing as a loss of your investment. And as you're having to use up the coke anyway you might as well add the JD.

I'm on Glasgows finest soft drink made from Girders. :laugh:

Aye tis good stuff. Think they sometimes add a wee bit of whisky to it up here but personally I wouldn't bother unless it was terrible whisky.

I just can't understand the Ali-E thing.It doesn't seem to be doing any more or any less than Fasttech re;clones etc.
Where is it based,The States?

Ali_E are the retail side of the parent company Ali_.... and are in Shenzen, Guangdong Province, China the same as FT, maybe it's because they are a middle-man company rather than a seller like FT or maybe as Terry has said, they have done something in the past to upset the forum management.

It's done it again, those dots are ba_ba

Just watched Fake Britain which carried an item on exploding

counterfeit e cig batteries, it seems that a leading testing house SGS (I think)

stated that they have never carried out testing of any e cig products

so if you buy a branded e cig product that carries their mark it's a fake

All of the failed products they showed appeared to be the ego pen

starter kit type batteries that, looking at my 2, dont appear to be vent holed

Think I'll invest in a lipo bag anyway

Trish did you catch the Renoir (later life) biopic on Sky Arts last night ?

a fair bit of artistic licence but a good watch

Well, today that one order is still showing as despatched to overseas country ...except it arrived today along with the other order placed at the same time!
So, fully stocked on iSticks and coils here now! :thumb:
I'm thinking that the tracking isn't to be taken too seriously!

I didn't actually - would have needed to go into another room to watch it as I don't have Sky in here :)
There's also just too many channels to get to watch everything to be honest. I'd love it if the Sky Arts programmes were repeated at a later date on Freeview, but can't say I've seen any listed.

Great vapemail day.....

Authentic Hana dna30(ordered in olive colour,never seen a cloned one)
Eleaf lemo Drop
2 x Sony vtc4's
Pack of ... cotton
Roll of 28g Kanthal.

:banana::rickroll::banana:

Sounds like a nearly perfect vape mail. All you needed in that was some juice!

Slap a 28ga micro coil on the lemo drop, stuff it with the japanese cotton, whack a vtc4 in the dna30 and vape away. :toast:

edit: actually stuff that you could just keep the coil the lemo comes with, I assume the drop is the same in that respect.

Last week, I asked my husband to pop a small package into the post: small box, 7x4" containing a few bottles of liquid for Ian.
His turn came, and she asked what was in the package ...he didn't actually know and hadn't a phone with him to ask me.
So she insisted on opening my carefully taped package - announced what it was and stuck it back up, took the money and that was that.

So, today we wanted to post a cheque to our bank rather than go into town. It was payment for part of my exhibition, so it was to go by Special Delivery to ensure it got there next day. (Last time we posted a cheque to the bank it took 8 days - and the bank, who log every bit of post daily, were looking out for it after 4 days too!)
Today, as usual, it was a normal 5x7" envelope containing a covering letter and the cheque.

My husband told her he wanted to send it SD.
'What's in it?' she asked
'A cheque.'
'How much for' she then asked,
so he discreetly told her.
'How much?'
So he had to speak louder resulting in everyone in the queue hearing.
'Can anyone else cash it?'
'No, it's crossed'.
'£5.78 please.

I could almost see steam coming out of his ears when he came back home!

While she was dealing with our letter, the lady next to him was being served:
'What's in the parcel?'
'Children's Clothing.'
'What sort of clothing?'
'Coats.' ...and by this time the lady was obviously annoyed.

While we're very much in favour of security, we feel this sub post office is OTT.
If the normal level of security regarding items posted has been increased to the point that people are being asked rather personal details about what they're posting, why has there been no national announcements to warn people what to expect?

I sent some batteries in the post a while ago, only dawned on me while I was in the queue that I think RM have some battery restrictions and I couldn't remember what they were. Person at the counter asked me what was in the parcel so I said USB sticks and that was that.

Yes pre coiled and according to Bob,they're OK.

I sent a parcel to the States yesterday.It was an old enamel advertising sign.
Nearly collapsed in the P.O,bring me a glass of water........... £75.

They are, I'm still using the original coil in mine. It isn't a micro coil so heats up a bit slower, but would be fine on that dna30. I've been vaping mine mostly 20- 25W with the air fully open.

Vapemail for me as well, my other i-sticks at long last ! Also the lemo i ordered last night from Ba has been shipped, and the tracking from ali, is showing some movement on my other lemos. My final order from FT is still showing information received, but hopefully i will have it before xmas. :)

That I think was definitely OTT and she shouldn't have enquired "how much", that was none of her business
To be honest my answer to her first question would have been "paper of no value to anyone but the recipient, I just want to ensure that they receive it tomorrow"

They really need to be trained in how to ask the appropriate questions, like for SD where there is compensation involved for non-delivery, they need to know what the value of the item is and especially if an expensive item, but for items that have no intrinsic value and just need to be delivered the day after posting, then they don't need to know unless it is a restricted item

You can always take the wick out and tighten up the coils, which is what I did to mine after about 3 tankfuls
