Maybe it is George, NOT ! We all know the real truth :)

I'm afraid i don't Terry,as i don't think you ever get to the real truth regarding any thing to do with the EU :lol:

Could never understand why they cut the bottles down to 10ml but stopped the sale of 10 packs of fags(not that it matters to me anymore:).)

It is stupid and pointless Trish, what is stopping people buying 10 x 10 ml bottles if they want 100 ml:laugh: I reckon if Nic becomes hard to get, or unlawful even, my other plan is to just vape nicotine less :lol: In all honesty i don`t think i would miss it now :)
I did buy 10 bottles of the GetVape Scones & Red Jam, and 5 of the Vanilla Doughnut.
Not sure if I could do without, I can certainly not miss it for a few hours if we have to go out, but at home, I find myself coming back to it no matter what I'm doing, unless for mealtimes or when we have visitors - it all lives in my studio, and it's the only room I use it in. I do take a small battery and tank out with me just in case we get stuck somewhere though.
I daresay I could really cut down if I was stuck with 10ml bottles if I had to. I need to remind myself that I stopped a habit of around 45 years using just cartridges and tiny batteries.

Nah! Reviews watched.:)

Wasn't so brave with the Moku Oyatsu,only ordered 30ml.Lovely stuff,went back and ordered 180ml last night.
Same with the Royal Vapes Raspberry custard,30 ml ordered and need to order 180ml later,there is a 10 day wait and the 20th of this month is looming up.:sneaky:
I still think you're brave based on reviews - but certainly better than none!
Is the Moku similar to Dragonscape?
I like the sound of Raspberry Custard too - just took a look and ordered 5x10ml bottles of different ones. With luck, if I like any of them, I'll have time to order more in bigger sizes! :)

It's supposed to be to protect children and animals Terry,incase they get hold of a big bottle and OD on nic.
Think there has already been a reported case of someones dog getting poisoned.
I suppose that makes sense - although, Sophie only ever got one 10ml bottle back in 2014, and I retrieved it with only one tooth puncture in it.
After that, everything was put away out of reach ...which no doubt is far safer than the average smoker leaving cigarettes and lighter on tables etc.
My bottles of nicotine are in an upstairs room behind a closed door, and some already further inaccessible in a freezer.
Not everyone is properly responsible with such things I suppose.

We do know what was behind the whole thing, but 'think of the children' ...never mind pets, was a big argument they kept using that in some ways was hard to dispute.

But, I still think it's a case of being responsible with anything harmful, and I do think that most adults are responsible ...it's always the thoughtless minority that gets the laws changed, and we all suffer the consequences.

I was amazed that mobile phones ever got to be used in vehicles without a pre-emptive law making it illegal. Sometimes, the lawmakers miss the obvious.

Why?I take notice of your reviews :w00t: :laugh:

Haven't tasted Dragonscape but reading the description..... NO:)It's White Gummi,like those little jelly gummi bears,predominantly Pineapple,smoothest juice i have vaped and that's at 6mg be better for you again at 3mg.
Raspberry custard is on point(we all taste things differently,tho)Leaves Grumpy in the dust.Think it's freshly made to order Trish,i left mine as long as i could,but adding the 10 day order to todays date takes us about a week from the dreaded day.

Two years and four months and i've found two of my favorite juices in the last fortnight.

Ha-ha! I suppose you do ....but they aren't always 100ml bottles :D Sometimes, once you get to know someone's tastes better, you can better judge whether you'll like something too .....with strangers though ...well, some people vote for Trump?! :p

It does sound good - I like pineapple! ....I had meant though to ask if the taste of the China Palace was something like Dragonscape :D

If it tastes anything like nice when it arrives, I'll order some anyway! ;)

Ah, sods law strikes again :lol: ...best thing are the companies that diversify into concentrates too!

The ready to use stuff does last longer for strength and flavour if kept in dark glass bottles and tightly closed until you use it.

BTW Trish do your keep your pre mixed base in the Fridge?Should, i be doing?
I don't, but I do keep it in a cool room upstairs. I don't obsess over nicotine strength either ...it's below .3mg once I add flavouring, but I don't even think about it.
Also, I bought a few 1.2mg 500ml bottles of base - that way, I can dilute it with plain VG to whatever strength I choose - but I've used .3 or lower for a long time now.

I would keep pets and children out of the way of household bleach and fire - as well as e-liquid. I would also keep children out of my house at all times. :)

I'll agree with that :laugh: when the cat is in and I'm out the door to the room where all my on the go juices are is shut so he can't get in, all others are out of his reach.

Ah,don't know,sorry.Only arrived at Lunchtime,smells very fruity.
Perhaps not then - doesn't matter ...just wondered from the description. May be nice, even if unusual, though looking at the reviews.

Absolutely! I agree with all points! :D

I have everything in use in this room too ...along with tubes of toxic paints (lead, chromium, etc.), mediums and all sorts of toxic substances, and my computer equipment.
Our new puppy is only allowed in when I'm here to stop her touching anything untoward, but the older little dog knows very well not to touch anything (as did our lovely big girl once she was old enough to know the boundaries).

1000 pages eh! @terry w looks like the limit has been extended...
I saw that earlier ...perhaps no-one has noticed :unsure: - amazing how soon they add up!

This is interesting from the ECF newsletter (In case not everyone has seen it) An article by Oliver:
iQOS and HeatSticks - the full picture - Vaping.com - Your One Stop Vapor Shop

Not sure I particularly like the idea - too much tinkering could be done with addiction to the stuff just as they always have done with cigarettes for a start!

What is clear is that there could be much innovation down the line in various ways that we couldn't even think of.

This snippet is in that article linked to:
One of the current proposals being hotly promoted by US tobacco controllers is to de-nicotinize cigarettes. The 2009 Smoking Act contains provisions that allow the FDA to remove most (but not all) nicotine from cigarettes.

I don't think that's going to happen any time soon!

Customer mentioned it in the Café and my first reaction was Noooo Waaay, it's made by a TOBACCO company, even the owners were against stocking it - as far as I'm concerned it is still a cigarette, so must still contain all the baddies - you're just not burning them but heating them, which could be worse

I agree - not something I'd be happy to even consider changing to at all.
To be honest, I don't want to taste tobacco any more!

The Government cannot trigger article 50 without a vote from MPs. This is an annoying result - hopefully there will be enough democrats in the house for us to win such a vote. I'm an optimist. :)
That is annoying ...and ridiculous. Drat that Gina Miller woman and her cronies with their self-interest!

What happened to complying with the result of a public referendum.

Almost as if someone had the judge in their pocket! (And having been the victim of such practice, I know it does, quote often, happen.) The old boy network at it's worst?

Let's hope the government can overturn it:

"But a government spokesman announced it would contest the ruling, saying: "The country voted to leave the European Union in a referendum approved by Act of Parliament. And the government is determined to respect the result of the referendum. We will appeal this judgment."

Fundamentally wrong-headed. In the case of cigarettes it is the delivery system that is lethal, not the nicotine. How typical of them to grasp entirely the wrong end of the stick and soil their hands.

Exactly - and still nothing to prevent them adding substances to make them more addictive ...again!
Tobacco companies making anything to do with vaping or smoking cessation is open to public mistrust, and not without good reason.
