    I even got a new carto in my carto tank. :thumbs: Badly needed.

    I also rewicked one Dvarw. I don’t do that often enough sometimes.

    I didn't realize you were still using a carto tank. That's pretty old school!

    I stocked up with Ikenvape cartos. My BlackBerry mix ADV is in the tank.. I still love the vape from a carto tank.

    I understand. I still like my menthol tobacco in the same old Siren V1 tank.

    I got a nice surprise today. Thought I would owe the IRS but instead I got a 4K refund. My UK pension started end of 2020, plus I got a 5 year lump sum payment because I didn't claim it until I was 70. I opted not to pay UK taxes on the lump sum so I thought the US would grab their share, but apparently it isn't taxable over here. I'm 6K richer than I thought I was a week ago.

    After years of vaping the same recipes I did some experimenting over the last few months and got 4 decent new mixes out of it. Blackcurrant, orange, gooseberry, raspberry. Never had much luck with fruit before. Still tinkering with them and they are getting better, they are pretty basic recipes at the moment but I've got the main %'s figured out. Retired some old ones to make way for the new. Plus I got most of my gear switched over to TC.

    A while back my wife got a cough that wouldn't go away. She decided it was from vaping flavors and nicotine so I started making her unflavored juice with no nic. I warned her about losing the nic but she didn't believe me. Her cough went away but her consumption went up from 4mls a day to over 20mls. That's what got me into TC, she was chain vaping and burning up wicks like crazy. Couple of weeks ago she realised her vaping was out of control and let me make her some unflavored with 6mg nic, and her consumption went right back down to 4mls a day. Saves me hours of rebuilding tanks.

    So I'm happy all round.

    Also don’t forget to post your successful recipes.

    I'll do that. Thing is I made them pretty simple. Just some cream or vanilla or cake picked at random. I wanted to get the fruit part figured out first then work on the accompanying flavors. I'm mostly not very organised about this process and it takes me a long time.

    I never had much luck with fruit before. The magic bullet for me was marshmallow.

    I’m sure glad tomorrow is Friday. It’s been a long week.

    I’m way overdue to go through my screenshots of recipes. I’m due to do some mixing. I’m caught up on reviews so maybe I can mix this weekend.

    I wish you luck with mixing. Always nice to have new mixes.
