We got up to no heating this morning.
No water pressure in the system at all.Usually means it's escaping from somewhere i.e a leak or similar.Was dreading a burst,but checked everywhere no leakages.
So turned the water supply on to the system and topped it up to pressure.Has run all day no problems.Just shut itself down for the night.
So,i'm waiting to see what the morning brings.

That's the problem with heating, you don't use it all summer and when it gets colder they get over worked and end up failing, mine's on a timer so it is always off overnight, and comes on at 08:00 so that by the time we get up at 09:00 the home has started to warm up, we get a checkup once a year with ours by the council contractors, gas check and make sure it's working, had problems in the beginning with circuit boards failing, but think they cured that problem, and they upgraded the pumps because they were having so many failures (this will be my fourth if it is the pump, but this one has lasted a couple of winters so far)

Oh right! ...suppose that'll be OK then

...on the news tonight is that the government plans to arrange for plain cigarette packaging before the election - I'm assuming they mean colours and brand names etc. ...so how will retailers know what's in the box! - is the lucky dip to make a come-back!

Even more glad that I don't smoke now!

Yep, it's great on a Saturday

Bet they don't lower the price of ciggies with less printing costs though

Got a Dyson Hot Fan downstairs, and a Halogen heater in my room, but haven't had to switch mine on yet, it's still 21°C in here, I've got thermals on anyway and managed to get through to them and someone coming tomorrow, hopefully to fix it.

As long as you're not in the cold that's the main thing mate Newspaper inside clothing if it gets really cold, just remember to wash the print off after removing it

Absolutely divine Ian It`s Been a while since i had any LMP, so nice to revisit it ! Gonna have to order some more me thinks.

I've still not tried the Lemon Bar I got from MBV yet. How does it compare to LMP mate ??

If you're in a hard water area, that can cause problems too Bob. Parts get gunked up really quickly and fail a lot sooner. I know there's an additive that can be added to the central heating system, but it obviously won't work in the hot water system. Hope they get it sorted for you mate.

Only on a Saturday my Dear, when I become Irene

I would say the LMP is a lot more complex and flavouful Mate, no two ways about that ! I`ve decided i`m going to get a couple of infinite V4`s, There is one review on it, and it is highly rated ! And you get the bell cap with it as well, which i think look really cool.

Forgot to say, i tried some of my freebie Hawk sauce before from MBV, and only for the bloody menthol it would be a very nice vape

Think we have the hardest water in the country, one of the things I hate about living down here, when I lived in N.Wales it was lovely soft water, kettles lasted for ages, no limescale on the taps, now I have to buy Brita filters to get drinking water for my Hot Cup and Coffee Machine, and descale the ends of the taps once a year.

I got my Cloudhouse order today! 5x5ml ones from SNG & MBV - so far, they all smell or taste good from a tiny drop, plus a bottle of Gremlin custard. I have used a bit of it - tastes OK. I'll let it sit for a week and try it again, but personally, I don't think it's going to be spectacular to be honest. Still, we'll see

The 5x5ml I got are:
SNG Creature Cream: peaches & cream
SNG Campfire S'mores: chocolate marshmallow & graham cracker
MBV Coumarin Pipe: light aromatic tobacco
MBV French Vanilla
MBV Shenanigans: Irish Cream Cool chocolate Mint

The peaches & cream and French vanilla don't have a lot of taste yet, but do taste like they're supposed to. The rest already seem rather promising. Can't tell until I actually use them though - that Dusk to Dawn coffee one was a prime example: had a wonderful coffee smell and tasted awful.

The Coval ones are on their way as of today

Finally got round to trying the LCCC from CV yesterday in the Lemo that's on my DNA40 and wasn't too impressed at first, could only taste the coconut, hardly any lemon, but today I put the wattage down to 20w and the resistance is now showing 0.18ohm (a little better) I can now taste lemon and coconut and it's creamy so well pleased - another to add to my re-order list.

It is one i would definitely try again bob, but personally i like the posset more

No such thing as miracles ...sorry

Do they do a berry mix? It could be the same one they use in the Hawk. I'm sure they'll tell you if you ask them.

Good find Bob

Out of the 3 I have I prefer the Lemon Bar with 20% Sweet Cream Added - much better lemony taste

Cheers Terry. The MBV one does smell lovely though, think I'll probably do as you do and mix some cream with it

Are you getting the plain V4s or perhaps one of the black ones mate ??

You and me both mate. Not a fan of menthol at all.

 

[Bobw1951]

Good find Bob

As soon as I saw your post the words just came straight into my mind so a quick search on YT

I only use mine at around 6.5W on an iPow battery ...didn't taste good on the iStick for some reason. I get a nice tartness on the inhale and the cream cake after that - Can use it everyday quite happily.

I like both equally I think - depends what I want. the LCCC is smooth and comfortable, the Posset a bit on the fresher side without being sour.

That's one good thing here in Rochdale. Water is lovely straight from the tap, no need for filters or anything else. It is nice with a little coffee and milk added though

I dunno trish, and i will be getting all my MBV orders from cloudhouse from now on, but i will have a look next time i order
