I just got in touch with them Trish, before i read your post. I got a reply within seconds saying the same thing, they are currently doing a stock check, but all liquids will be back very soon :)
I got the same on 21st:
We are just carrying out a stock check on these.
They will be back in the next couple of days.
Sorry for the delay and inconvenience.
Kind regards,
Rhiannon

Not desperate, but when theirs is what I'm using the most, I like to know they're there! :D
Hopefully, it won't be long now.

I`m exactly the same Trish, and running low on a couple. I think i may start buying 100 ml bottles to save any future hassle.
Bob, all packed up now and sitting here till tomorrow :)

I do mostly buy 100mls, and still I'm running a little low on one or two ...mostly it's because I need to dilute what I already had. Only used 0 and .3 since October now, so no reason to go higher ;)
(I actually mixed a bottle of Doughnut I had at .4mg 50/50 with 0mg, so that's even less!)

When I start getting properly organised and settled, I'll start making it myself again.

Feeling hacked off today ...just paid my tax! :(

Tax ...it is what it is - normally, I grit my teeth and pay it. Not a huge amount at all, but enough I had to take it out of savings. Normally, it's in my account ready, but the past couple of years have been poor on sales in the galleries for most people, and my work output has been virtually zero in the past 6-8 months!
Accountants have put the fees up too :(, but I prefer them to do it as they always get it right - many of the partners are ex VAT and Tax inspectors, so have a good reputation with the IR.

Can't win at the moment ...never mind, people got worse to deal with!

Must get my head in the right place and start working again!!!

This guy seems too use about half as much Terry,i went somewhere in between.


Hmm, interesting that he didn`t even place the tails in the channels, i noticed it didn`t show him vaping it though :laugh:
I had a hint of a dry hit earlier, so i still haven`t got it perfect yet. I will wait now till Bob`s turns up, then have a play with that one.

I wondered whether you had done it, after listening to that twit in the HofC yesterday, he forgot to mention the employed people/pensioners who also pay tax through PAYE (didn't pay any last month & got a small rebate on my larger pension :) thanks to the new rules on claiming some of the SOs allowance)

What was it about a twit in the house of commons? ....I didn't see it.
Jan 27th would have been my Dad's birthday, so I've never forgotten to pay my tax on that date, and also 27th July.

A dismal consolation is, that since 2012, sales have gradually got less in the galleries and related businesses, so my tax liabilities are gradually getting smaller ...when I do the 2015 accounts, it'll make my payments the following year even less!
One good thing - the personal allowance has risen!

This is why I need to get that momentum going again - can't bring myself to actually make a start, and there's still things to do to 5 pieces of older work before I can get them to a gallery and then start on something new ...which is what I'm really wanting to do! Still, if they don't get it, there's no chance of them selling it :laugh:

The twit is JC the Labour leader, and he was on about the 3% tax that Google has paid after 10 years, saying that small businesses and Self employed people have to pay their full tax (but forgot/wasn't bothered about the millions of normal tax payers).

Ah! ...that twit! ...yes, I did hear that.

Annoying to hear about the 3% tax, no matter how they try to wrap it up, but it never changes that we have to pay the full amount! Still, there has always been distinct advantages at being self-employed for me - just didn't reckon on the recession and the profound effect that had!

I have noticed that with my retirement lump sum that I got from the Railways, it's really up & down at the moment, it dropped when the global problem occurred within the bank lending, but had been perking up nicely recently, until this latest Chinese slowdown which has made the markets jittery again, with me losing about £3,000, hopefully it might pick up again.

Just saw that via UKV - he's right in what he says, more power back to individual countries is what is needed, a good shake up of the whole system, I agree with the open borders within the EU but the external borders need tightening right up, the silly rules that they apply (think banana/tomato sizes/shapes) should only apply to goods sold outside of individual countries, so like the TPD each country can make their own rules for internal use, but would have to comply if they sell to all EU countries (if they only sell to one other country then they could comply with just that countries rules), and get rid of people getting money for nothing like the EU parliament members, who rarely turn up to vote, and that last bit applies to our own MPs as well.

Ordered a Cuboid from FT(basically a dual 18650 vtc mini) last night,due to ship today,don't know if it will escape before CNY.
But with 10% discount was around the £26 mark,MAP didn't work.Be nice if it get's out,but no hurry.
It's in packaging at the moment.
Think I have it in my wishlist, I know I was looking at it but will probably wait until after the CNY, the thing I am waiting for is the new Gigue Dolphin tank that uses a new re-wickable ceramic coil set up, a cheaper one than that Altus
