Pretty sure it was Ian Trish, i just found it sickly though :nah: How do you find the Raspberry Rasputin these day`s ? I did notice that mine even at 6 mg can be a bit harsh sometimes. It`s the only juice i have that can make me cough, and i was wondering if anyone else has noticed ?

I'm vaping it right now, Terry. For me it tastes better (less harsh) in the Nautilus Mini. In the X-tank it delivers too much "throat hit" imho. I still love it as a flavour, though.

I was just looking at one on Amazon, and as it tends to be seasonal, I'll have to use it in the next few weeks as it's a 'live' type water-in called Nemaslug ...just wondered if I should order some of it!

I've used water-in slug killers before. I would normally use them when the days get warm in the spring (they'll all go away when it gets cold this winter) and normally only in containers/barrels. I found that it wasn't very economical over large areas - but everyone's garden is different. Much safer than metaldehyde pellets when pets are about. If you find slugs on a paved area then nothing beats salt - but not on flower beds as the salt will kill your plants. If you put salt on your drive in icy weather be sure to sprinkle some on any weeds popping up through the cracks.

Beer traps work really well for slugs imho.

Blimey! First time i've ever had one of these from RM

I've had that a couple of times - I think it's something that senders/retailers have as an option rather than something that RM does.

OK thanks - we seem to have far more this year, and of course we can't always see them all when the dogs go out after dark. At night, it's an area fenced off with a gate into the garden, so not as big an area as the garden: rear pergola & back door and wide side path to the side. There's a gravel covered border all around the house and a narrow bed down the side, so we could water it in along those areas and then along the base of an 8ft lower fence leading into the garden - at least it would help prevent them arriving on the paving in such huge numbers, and if I use the Nemaslug stuff, that goes down into the soil and keeps working apparently.
Somehow, one of the dratted things got into my studio through the French window a few weeks ago - soon despatched it though ...Ugh!
Not sure now whether to put a salt water solution on the paved areas, or get some of the Nemaslug ...we wash the paved areas frequently with bio solution because of the dogs, so could be a waste of salt that may wash away onto the edges of the lawn and border plants anyway.

Beer traps sound great ....dogs would drink it though :laugh:

It`s the only one of a few from there Pipe what does give to much hit, must be the flavouring eh ?

Let's hope Article 20 of the TPD is part of that
Who knows - seeing they'll be dealing with them all after we leave, just one by one as deemed appropriate, it may take some time unless someone involved raises the issue specifically.
If they dealt with the easy ones first though .....:unsure: :)

I wonder if she'll set up a team to deal with and sift through the EU laws we've had imposed on us ...aren't there over 12,000 of them?

Sounds like 24hour Tracked parcel - I've had a few of those in the past year

Can't have been Bob,it was posted last Thursday,probably more like Trish said, something to do with the vendor requesting it from RM.

It was free post when spending £30+

Which reminds me that was todays vapemail 30ml of Snap - Peach ice tea,30ml of Snap - Applesnap and a Trinity glass Copa drip tip.

I believe the NNA have already been requesting it :)

Good, they'll no doubt keep nudging until someone at least mentions or considers it!

I wonder how many people are out of work already because of this - as far as I know, quite a number of these smaller businesses have closed.
Dunno, but think most of those that have already packed up shop are those that were only in it for the money and couldn't be bothered to find ways around complying.

Yes, good point.
Anyone should be able to carry on even with available equipment and small bottles of ready to use. Perhaps not on a large scale, but likely enough.

@Bobw1951

I was always a little apprehensive about buying a Hotcig mod,because of neg feedback in their earlier days.
But must say the DX75 ain't a bad little mod,i'm liking it.
So,i noticed on GB last night the DR200 is on flashsale. So i've ordered one. Using my GB points, cost £52 shipped with insurance.
Which i think for a Evolv boarded 200 is a steal.
