Vape mail today. That Toonz concentrate Marcus coerced me into buying :laugh:

Smells pretty good, stronger on the aniseed than red astaire but not a million miles off. Couldn't find any info anywhere on what % to mix it at, the manufacturers website didn't even seem to state they made concentrates and the website I bought it off (vape inc) had no recommendation. Found one guy on another forum said he mixed his at 15% and it was good but I tried a little of the concentrate on my finger and it tastes quite strong so I've started at 5% and can always add more.

Might give it a go on something later but I find once you use a menthol/aniseed juice on a wick that's it you'll never get the taste out so then that RDA or tank has to be menthol based juices unless you want to taint your fruity vapes with a little menthol.

EDIT:...unless you re-wick and clean it obviously.

Well i did a quick search and found them in stock at ecigwarehouse and was going to order till i saw the warnings on UKV regarding that particular site ! Then i saw vape escape had them in stock @ £26.95, so another quick google and i found 10 % off using ukv, so i have ordered 2 for the princely sum of £48.51, with free delivery.:toast:

Seeing as it is only york, i should have them pretty quickly, so Adam, watch this space mate RE: your Lemo drop.

Okay, my verdict on Mrs Lords Summer Pudding Is...Bloody beautiful. I get mixed berries, with a hint of apple ( just a hint Trish ) And in all honesty, This has got to be one of the best liquids i have ever had. A very clean pure natural tasting vape, something i have never encountered before, and i mean never. Looking forward to trying the other two now, Victoria Sandwich, and Seville Marmalade.

Oh Happy Days :laugh:

Watching this space mate ----> :blink:

Never tried it but that seville marmalade is highly regarded generally I believe.

I was a bit disappointed with the seville marmalade. I think i had read too many good reviews about it and had high expectations! On the other hand, the toffee apple they do is lovely, my favourite from them.

Found my plume veil had an old ribbon wire build in it that I hadn't used for months so I re-wicked that to try the toonz.

Bearing in mind this was mixed about 5-10 minutes ago and so has had no time to steep and develop flavours, it is more aniseedy than red astaire and not as fruity and balanced but it's quite pleasant. I don't think it'll need to be much stronger than that 5% so I best leave it for a few days or a week before I pass final judgement.

As I only ordered the one concentrate from them (with free delivery) I was amused that the package it came in was juice bottle shaped, just wrapped up in a bag and sellotaped up. :laugh:

I dont understand your post, I dont see how the conditions for repayment of a student loan can be construed as having any tax implications, unless tax relief is given in lieu of outstanding interest, and if the 6000 rather than 9000 is given as an early settlement discount then isn't it the same as early mortgage settlement where you lose the tax relief on the outstanding interest because there would be no outstanding interest once the loan is repaid
I havent seen the proposal but no doubt if it looks to be an embarrassment to the labour party the bbc will be all over it

Sorry, I can't have explained myself properly.

At the moment students have to pay up to (but normally) £9,000 per year of study for fees. They have to repay this over a thirty year period from when they graduate once they earn more than £21,000 a year. They repay 9% of everything they earn over the £21,000 threshold. Earn less and you don't pay. At the end of the 30-year period all debts are cancelled and no further payments are made. An average graduate earner will pay back £46,300 over this period. This benefits poorer graduates who do not earn big salaries in life. It is effectively a "capped graduate tax", but if you don't like to think of it as a tax then just ignore this bit.

Miliband's proposals mean that wealthy graduates will be able to repay their fees more quickly, resulting in them paying less interest as they pay the debt back faster. You'd have to be earning over £36,000 a year to benefit in this way. Poorer graduates will not feel this benefit.

Hope that helps. )

I was looking in the Mirror :laugh:
:laugh:

Your French order will probably come by Parcelfarce,if mine is anything to go by.
Mine came Parcel Force too.

Can you LMK on that one Trish....been eyeing it up for a while.
I will - I tasted a drop on my hand and it was good! I'll try it properly later. Got the zero nicotine as it was all they had left, and if it's good I'll get a stronger one when I can and mix them!
I'm pretty sure I read somewhere that the next batch is due this month some time! It'll no doubt take longer to reach France though.

I binned both the crappy coval juices earlier, even that apple pie, which started off quite nice had gone bland ! cleaned and rewicked one of my V4`s and i have filled it with mrs lords summer pudding :) Just going to eat now ! Guess what`s for desert :laugh:
Sounds rather nice! I just had a bowl of real Strawberries & Raspberries with cream! :)
As for Coval - not sure what I'll do with mine ..perhaps add something or send them to the 'Fixer' :laugh:

What's George up to today? I thought that he would have been happy with the news from the IFS that average family incomes are back to pre-crash levels.
...perhaps true for some!

People do funny things in the run up to an election. Just ask Natalie Bennett. Or you could ask Ed "Bernie Winters" Miliband why he wants to give a tax break to rich graduates with his beautifully back-of-...-packet 6 grand fees proposal.
He must be 'magic' ...never quite explains how.
We'll see much more idiocy before May.
It's the idiocy afterwards that worries me!

Well i got my refund for the V4`s which just didn`t want to be shipped :laugh:
Glad you got it fast! :)

Bugger...Out of stock:(
Oh, typical!

...and I can't use them because they have too much PG! I've often wished they did Max VG, or at least 70/30!

Sounds really good ...but this is another company that doesn't give the PG/VG levels.

EDIT:...unless you re-wick and clean it obviously.
This is a reason that I can take a while to try menthol or coffee ones ..hard to override the taste without using a new coil.

Busy busy day. No vape mail but I've now ordered a cloupor mini from FT, an istick50w from GearBest for £30. FT have started shipping bits of my orders, the sub tanks, c mini, Erl tanks are still out of stock but soon now.
I been and organised a sight test for new glasses now the hospital has finished them.
I've appointment for Friday with specialist physio.
My solicitor has phoned to say the other party are not going to contest the blame and accept 100% blame.
I've updated my juice list...https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet...DM8nfATKkVtD93fAFsAA1IQ/edit?usp=docslist_api
I've updated my tv series list...https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet...ZCxEnRF2kABr9cDP4wqBU5o/edit?usp=docslist_api
I'm trying a new coil in 1 of the Lemos, a 2.5 ohm spaced coil with 24awg and 2.4 inner dia. Seems ok, but slow to heat up on mechs but I think that's the mechs. I'm enjoying to variable mods hence the order of the c mini and istick50.
Now to sit back and relax.:vapor:

Surprised you've gone for a cloupor mini after all the worry over them melting (mine is still fine and hasn't missed a beat).

I think buying the c mini should be ok. They found the fault and hopefully rectified it. But even if I get one of the old stock the odds are still against it being a faulty one. Fingers crossed anyway.

Cracking price on the iStick 50 Dave.The battery life is real good lasts me 3 to 4 days

I see the chancellor is selling off the family silver, I wonder if the proceeds will go towards paying off the national debt or as a tax sweetener before the general election
A cynic might say that he will see how the opinion polls are looking at the spring statement before making his mind up
I dont see the logic in selling off an asset that is in profit and increasing in value year on year, especially when the 3.5 million it was forecast to make this year will disappear from the balance sheet

Doesn't matter whose in power they all sell off major publicly owned enterprises to top up the coffers, because they have over spent on other things like propping up dictatorships in other countries etc., luckily this will not affect my discounted travel.
