Well it did arrive.....but I was at work and it's at the sorting office so unable to pick it up until saturday!

I did order more strawberry vapetto though! Hope it hurries up as I've not got much in stock, just lemon, a little menthol and the coil killer - banana split from vibrant vapours. It's thick and sweet and the only way I can stop it from burning coils is to switch the little rubber gromit upside down *sigh* and even then the banana flavour is diluted. Never buying from them again. If I am desperate I'll pick up some Dekang for £2 from the local B&M in town.

PG heavy liquids, especially sweet ones are coil destroyers. I always go 50/50 as that's what works best for me personally.

This banana is truly awful. Hardly getting any banana taste out of it now.

They should change their name to violent vapours!!

Spent hours last night making cotton wicks. Patience nearly snapped a few times! So hard to thread cotton wool! Maybe I've not got the knack!

I get mine in 100% VG base, so it must be sugar causing the coils to clog on some. The Jamaican Ginger is the worst one I've had for that problem, and it's one that I like a lot.

I'm not a fan of banana ones - got the Grizzly Polar Bear, and the banana isn't strong in it. Possibly wouldn't buy it again though. It would be great without the banana for me! :)

My newest MVP2 seems to have died on me! Only charged it once and went to use it this morning while the other is charging and nothing ..no lights, not a thing. It won't charge either. I hate when things develop a fault like that!

I can't be bothered with fiddling around doing coils, so at least you make the effort! :)

I ordered from CV on Sunday afternoon and got notice it had been sent this evening. As far as I can tell from my past orders, it means it'll actually be in the post the next day and then take 1-2 days to arrive. Based on that, I think I'll have mine Thursday or Friday. With luck you will get yours by Saturday if they send it out soon :)
I ordered 60ml of Mint Choc Vapetto, 10ml Steamgunk Lemon Meringue Pie and some menthol flavouring.

My non-working MVP seems to have recovered! It appeared to be fully charged, but wasn't showing any light when pressed, and then a few hours later, it started working! Seems OK for now!

Email from CV this morning saying it's shipped!

Wish I could say the same about my wife and daughters passports! Emailed our mp this evening so fingers crossed! Been 3 and a half weeks now and we fly in just over 5 weeks!

Spend a total of nearly 3 hours on the phone on 3 occasions and my wife couldn't get through. I tried and got through in 30 mins but they wouldn't give me any info as my wife wasn't present! [emoji30]

They are drafting in lots of staff and are working 7-midnight 7 days a week. It's applications from Brits abroad that started the back log as they process them here now and not abroad plus the fact out horrible unelected government cut staff and closed the newport office as well!!

Grrrrr!! Where's me vapes!!

Oh dear! I thought when you hadn't said anymore about the passports, that they'd arrived! I do hope they get there very soon!
Can't understand how they let it get so bad - they must know when to expect extra workload due to changes they made and also seasonal surges. Awful service.

Glad your CV order is on it's way though! :)

Well I tried 2 of the samples - one yesterday and one this morning. MBV cinnamon roll - lovely - simply lovely! And CV's Lews Brew - yuk!! It's like the cheapest and worst coffee ever. Lews spew!! Eurgh!!!
I'll blog about them all once they've all been sampled.

They send a free sample too but at 1ml it's not enough and you really need to give them a good half hour and some primer puffs to wick them.

You also get 3 pipettes and a hand written thank you as well. Shame they don't sell 10ml and 30ml samples!

Anyone one know a vendor in the uk that sells mount baker vapour juice?

I like the Lews Brew, but I tend to always add a percentage of their Caramel Cappuccino to it ...something like 1/4 to 1/3.

Can't say I've ever seen any for sale in the UK. Someone may know otherwise though.
They do international shipping, so it would be worth putting some into the basket and seeing how much the shipping is. You can get a 30ml bottle for $7.49 Cinnamon Roll E Juice Baker Vapor - Mt Baker Vapor - Electronic Cigarettes

Ooh thanks! Hey moo juice is the strawberry one we've been looking for! It's a strawberry milkshake and tastes like it smells! So cruel that it's only 1ml [emoji30] but it's like those nesquik or crusha strawberry milkshakes you can buy.

Just tried also trip hammers strawberries and champaign - very nice strawberry taste with bubbles on the exhale!

I like my Strawberries and now I'm finding some real favourites! [emoji106]
