Itsy Bitsy Teeny Weeny Vapemail. My `S` Kit

If i get chance, i will fit it tomorrow and compare it to the stock

Looks like I'll be popping down to the Sorting Office again in the morning to see if they have just dumped my packet in there, which was posted 16/01 in York, and if they have I will be asking to speak to the Delivery Manager and depending on what he says, I will escalate my last complaint (similar situation).

I'm odd. I don't search for flavour any more (other than generic "apple" or fruit flavours), because I know that what I really want is the nic and the mouth-feel of vape. A lot of flavours these days just sound as if the companies concerned have got a decent copywriter in who can ring emotional bells. Anyone else feel like this?

I've started to make my own flavours, I've got 3 setups at the side of me and they've got bubblegum & menthol, very berry and aniseed and tobacco and liquorice mixes in them. When I was buying expensive juices I never did get that multi layered taste thing
I think that the incessant search for flavours is because what ex smokers miss is the taste of smoke and as far as I know nobody's replicated that yet

I'm happy with the feel of smoke. If I want to mix my own then blackcurrant is at the top of my list. It tastes pretty much as it should, and has a "clean" feeling to it.

Terry, I just finished that Hawk Sauce and even at 0 nic it was passable. I've vaped it most of the day and didn't really miss the nic but it was a bit light on flavour.
So, I've cleaned it all out and re wicked it with the new rayon that came today and filled it with the same Lemon Ginger Biscuit I put in the kayfun mini. It's a 50/50 mix and I think it may be a bit heavy for the mini or I've built a bad wick in it, I have to slow down my vaping to avoid it drying out. It's a very nice vape in the mini I'm real happy with it.
But in the kayfun v4 with rayon it's the best I've ever had. 15 mg nic and very nice in the mini but in the v4 I'd quite happy to drop that to around 6mg.

Things are finally looking up, mods all good now, I've some very good rta's now and a few more still in the post, and I'm finally finding some juices I look forward to vaping. It's taken me about 10 months to get here but it's been well worth the effort. Even though I was smoking cheap knock off I've saved over £800 and I reckon I've only spent about half that on vape gear ( but I daren't add it up just in case ).

Thanks for everyone's help advise.

Thats brilliant Dave, and i am happy that you are getting there with it all. Time to just chill and enjoy now, with just a bit of frustration thrown in now and then, with new tanks etc

I think the kayfun mini`s just don`t wick well mate, mine is the same ( Coffee and Cream ) A tip for you which does work for me is...As soon as you start to feel the wick drying out, just crack open the top cap, and you will see bubbles rising as your wick saturates again. I find myself doing that after every 5 or 6 draws.

That is the reason i will be getting one of THESE when FT re-open, which is tomorrow. They have got some really good reviews.

I have seen and read about these and they do look good. The hole in the runt is only just over 15mm though so when you get 1 can measure up the different sections because it looks to be different all the way down.

Totally different specs to the Kayfun dave ! I don`t fully understand what you mean with the sizes, but it gives all the specs on the page

I could have been wrong about the flavour thing. SCO Peach turns out to be very tasty. Who'd 'a' thunk it?

It says on the page it's 17mm diameter but looking at it it's not 17mm all the way down, the top section just below the drip tip looks narrower. If that bit is down to 15-16mm it might fit in the Runt.

Ok, will have a look when i get it What is this runt you speak of ?

 

[Davantrac]

If you have a look at this vid from 4 minutes on you will see how I might be able to get the vs to fit. This video shows the pre production model and the battery now has a cover and the atty hole has been increased to 15mm, I know it's a fraction of a mm over 15mm and I maybe could stretch it a little more.

Good! ...so if you see one wandering around lost, it's my MOJO!

Put an advert in the paper Trisha - Lost one MOJO, reward for it's swift return

Our son used to work 4x12hr shifts of 2 days 2 nights, then 4 off. Now he does 5 a little shorter shifts, none of which end after midnight but have him on call, and 3 days off. Took some weeks to get used to but he seems OK now.

Mine are all longer shifts now, but the money is better. I now work 4 days out of 7, rather than 5 days out of 7. I'm slowly getting used to the longer days. The only downside is I have to do Manchester runs now.

We look forward to the extended pleasure of your company!

Yep, I'll be here, driving you all nutty

I know a lot of people have given up on flavours completely and just vape unflavoured nicotine juice. Not for me though, I do like my variety of flavours

More vapemail for me.




My Flask has finally landed. It's bloody lovely. I really, really do like the colour, the blue looks superb. I'm looking forward to having a play with it on my days off

Is your postie working nights Ian ? You do know george`s rule don`t you

 

[trouble1000]

Terry, do you remember when I said we got some speciality meats from Iceland ??

Well we had the Ostrich steaks tonight and they were absolutely fantastic. Tasted just like top quality steak, but better. Not a single bit of fat on them. The Wife cooked them exactly like steak, fried in a bit of oil. I reckon if they were slowly braised, they would be even better. Definitely worth a try if you get chance mate.

Sorry George

At the moment, I'll have to have an extension on the one hour rule when I'm working. I think my rule should be, posting the same day

I was about 8 hours late myself mate, so we can take our rollicking together

Honestly mate, as far as I'm concerned, it's a lot better than the best sirloin steak. I literally licked the plate clean

Just got the Venison to try now, saving the most expensive til last.
