Very true Trisha. If you know you'll get stung by RM, a lot of the time it can work out cheaper.
Chef's site constantly seems to be changing. I think their doing it just to keep you on your toes
It's back now and one that had some strengths o/s is fully stocked again - things do seem to appear and disappear since they got the new site though
I know, I'm a glutton for punishment
I'm sure some wise old Sage way back had something to say about gluttony

....Grasshopper!
All your patience has finally paid off
Always hard knowing about something good and not being able to say anything! I found it really well flavoured.
Seems to have been a good seller at the two outlets they have, so hopefully it'll be a popular one. I've seen it on the EU site for a while, but never seen any on the actual Zapp website.
It'll be pre-steeped too - which is why there's a gap between the batches at the moment.
Had an e-mail from 3FVape this morning saying their having problems getting stock in of the VF I ordered. So they asked me if I didn't mind upgrading to the VF with optional USB. I'll never use the USB, but if it means my order gets sent out before CNY, I don't mind upgrading.
Replied to them "Ok please upgrade it". Within 10 minutes I got the dispatch e-mail. The excitement is building
Nice! some things do work out well!

I placed an order with Highbrow and it was picked up mid-afternoon on 10th ...it's cleared Heathrow today already!

With luck I'll get it tomorrow, but if not, probably Monday. May depend on whether we have a postman working tomorrow!
I just ordered some more from Avant Garde - had to use the bespoke method as a lot of the VG range is o/s at the moment, and they don't do all I want in VG anyway.
Their Chocolate Doughnut is very good! Well flavoured and not overly sweet either. Think it may be my equal favourite to Mint Choc Vapetto! I'll be getting a bigger bottle when it's back in stock in the next week or so.
Have re-tried the Interstate Certified CO Star and it's not that bad - yes mild, but a nice creamy vanilla with a hint of coconut ..and of course, I can always do a bit of alchemy with it
having a lazy morning today before I get the brushes out. Feel stiff as a board today for some strange reason.
Not used to the sanding etc! You always find some lesser used muscles.
I've been using a water based gloss paint for the woodwork. Never used one before. The good thing is there's hardly any smell to it, it dries really quickly and you can use water to clean out the brushes/rollers etc. The bad point is, the coverage is crap. I bought a one coat version to save time, but I'll end up doing at least two coats, it goes on really thinly even with the brush loaded up
We always use the water based gloss or eggshell for inside - and it's great. Only one has a nasty smell, but one does make a poor job of coverage and wear (can't think which now, but think it
may be the Dulux one on both counts). Our Favourite is Sanderson eggshell, and although it costs more, it does a very good job on everything, including radiators, and in bigger tins, the kitchen walls. There's another we use just for the doors (pale Hemp Beige) - a nice satin finish and it's 1829 by Craig & Rose (B&Q).
Well the curse of Friday 13th struck, the machinery they wanted to use to do my procedure failed to work correctly, they've only had it a week, Siemens engineers called in and finally said it would take all day to get it back working, and because the other equipment they have is not suitable for what I had to have done, I along with another chap got kicked out and have to go back in 2 weeks time (at least with it being new there is not a great waiting list at the moment).
I am so sorry - always so much inner angst about these things, as none of us like getting such stuff done, and to get sent home is such bad luck. Sorry you have to prepare yourself for it all over again!
I'm so 'allergic' to hospitals, I'd be so upset.
