I got a freebie Pink lemonade at Vapefest, which is not too bad.
Yeah that one was ok, the orange one and the watermelon menthol one were better. Key lime cookie was only "ok".

One guy also showed me a super secret hidden feature on the istick 50. When you click it five times to turn it on, wait half a second then click fire 5 more times quickly and it'll show you the temp of the board on the screen. It does work by the way I'm not just saying this to wind you all up. Just imagining all over the country everyone furiously clicking their istick 50s haha

Was hanging out in a B&M today in Bristol, trying out some liquids dripping. Didn't buy any but these ones were nice:
Home to the finest USA e-Liquids on the planet.
I've got the 80VG Zen - lovely fruit taste, but haven't used it yet. The Crema sounds nice too.

Wondered about the orange ...never yet had an orange that didn't either taste artificial or watery.

Fancy that! Wonder why they don't include that in the blurb or instructions.

@Bobw1951

Any clue/idea when Svapiamo add mods to their site Bob.
And is it a shopping frenzy when it happens?

Think it may be today, but not really sure, I have seen some available during the week when I have looked, presume the best ones go fairly quickly, they also come up occasionally on UKV classies

I just checked tracking on my three FT orders - one landed in Heathrow yesterday: mostly coils and a Subtank Nano 'style' to see how they are compared to the authentic ones.
I ordered one GS Air coil to see if they've improved over the terrible ones I had some weeks ago.

Another order - the Grey Kangxin is 'in transit', and the third order: the green one can't be found! If it looks anything like the new image of it, I'm hoping it's lost for good!

I had an order shipped Yesterday with another Lemo2 and some battery cases in.

I recently got two Drip Tonic: Miss Samoa: Chocolate cookie with toasted coconut & caramel, and Fauxstess: chocolate cake, filling & icing.
Both are good, particularly the Miss Samoa ..been using it a fair bit since yesterday!

Their name may suggest a particularly thick liquid, but they aren't really - I'm using them easily in a simple MOW tank.

I noticed this one yesterday: The Last Cowboy - and it sounds nice - has anyone tried it? The Last Cowboy E-Liquid by Mad Mike's | UK eLiquid Shop

:laugh: one two and three maybe Ian :laugh:

:lol::lol::lol:
Or maybe all of the options.

Ooops :( will it be an expensive fix mate ?

Not really, the spring is only 20-25 quid. But it's the labour charge that's the killer.

Know what you mean, chap in Wigan sent me some rebuildable decks that went missing in post so asked him to send them RMSD and paid extra for it, week later he still hadn't sent them, ended up refunding me, couldn't be bothered to go to PO to send them.

Some people are just to lazy to run a business. When I was self employed, I was putting in a minimum of 12 hour days, sometimes up to 18 hours.

The garden was just part of a ploughed field when we moved in. Took a lot of hard work, mostly by our son with a rotovator, before we could get the lawn laid.
I had a little Polo then (hated it), and I'd go off out and return, barely able to see through the rear or front windows for plants & trees! I'd put them where they needed to be planted, and my Dad & husband would plant them.
All that had to stop when I was down to the last dregs of savings until I earned some more :laugh:
You've done a lot with your garden - ours is flat, and apart from paths, walls & fences, there wasn't much to be done apart from get it planted.
That ancient hedge brings some lovely birds - seem to have had all manner of them. We've had a nightingale singing in the corner mountain ash every February since 2000. It actually woke me up the first time it came, and I went out into the garden to see what it was. Very dark, frosty & cold, but I was fascinated by the loud clear song.
The initial digging up and hard landscaping bit is always the hardest. It's good that you've got a bit of muscle to help out with the heavy stuff.

We've still got a bit left to do in the garden. I need to get some more gravel for around the veggie planters and lay some weed mat under it. Plus sort out a proper patio area. Then the Wife can just keep on top of the weeding and pruning - that's one job I hate :lol:

Oh right, and where will Mrs Trouble be planting the tobacco crop? :unsure:

Guess I'll have to build another veggie planter for that then :lol:


Oh dear! Glad you stopped!

I think I stopped just in time, before any major damage was done.

Heard a loud twang as I went round a corner last year sometime on the way to work. Spring had gone! I crawled to the nearest reputable garage and it cost me over £100. Sort of thing I'll learn how to do myself one day. Hope you live nearer cheaper garages than me mate.

It's the labour charge that does it Adam. On most cars, with the right tools, it's a couple of hours to fix it. After ringing a couple of places that didn't seem bothered about doing the job, I've decided I'll do it myself instead. Picked up the spring yesterday for £25. But on my car, it's a harder job to do, because part of the front subframe has to be dropped to get clearance. So it will probably take me about 5 hours or so. I was hoping a mobile mechanic could do it. I can't slide under cars for that length of time any more, guess I'm getting old :lol:

Got it know Bob.i was trying to unscrew it.Im still a total newbie on rebuilding, are the coils that came with it ok or should I get some kanthal and some cotton

Sorry mate. Must have missed your post about passing on the squonker. Between us, Bob and myself should be able to get it working well for you. I'd rather see you using it happily, than have to pass it on to someone whose got mods coming out of his ears :lol:

I appreciate the offer though mate :D

Had a busy couple of days with work again. Not much to report on the vapemail front either, apart from the 18350 battery tray arriving from modmaker.

However, next week should be a bumper week at "trouble towers". I'm expecting delivery of :

1). 3D printed battery trays from an ebay seller in the USA.
2). The minotaur (from Bob) that needs collecting from the Sorting Office.
3). Full 3D printed mod (to hold an SX350) from a company in France that does 3D printing. It's a green one, so should stand out a little :lol:
4). 3D printed voltmeter sleds, from the same French company - should help to tidy up the exterior of my home made box mods.
5). A FT order for another voltmeter, some electronic calipers (to help when measuring up for parts with my box mod builds), a couple of 510 connectors and some flux paste.

-------------

I'm really getting a taste for this box mod building lark:laugh:

That's a beauty George. I wonder if they do the boxes, without any internals - would make a superb project build.

EDIT - just had a look and I think they do. Just need to translate the page now so I can have a proper look.
