I'll try that first. I only managed to get the drip tip in the cap in the first place, via brute force and determination

And a hammer?

 

[CaveFurby]

I know. I keep telling myself I'm done. So done. Then I, well, get weak. But then I see a mod or atty and know if I don't snatch it now it'll be gone later. I figure that Our buying spree now is nothing compared to the buying frenzy we'll see happen soon enough.

 

[NolaMel]

Ordered 2 infinite stingray clones, 3 black luxotics, and another blue Luna today. Now, I say I'm done, but I know I'll be ordering more soon. More nic, flavors, and fasttech stuff. I've got the shinyitis bad. Hmm, looks like FT has heated usb vests now, lol.

You’re so bad .... had to go see what a heated usb vest was! Sort of a cool idea if you live somewhere it gets cold. Or maybe after deeming, we can order that with vape gear to improve its chances of getting through customs lol

morning all.
Ellie from ecigone got in touch and they're sending out my two squonk bottles. packaged separately apparently for some reason and were missed.
FT are resending the AWOL adept kit via netherlands post not epacket. it'll hopefully be here before the holidays.
got a doctors appointment first thing so late into work. gives me time to decide whether it's the drone or the dreamer that'll be today's vape. as the drone was used almost exclusively yesterday i think the dreamer will be it. the brass that's heading to @DeloresRose has been polished and boxed awaiting departure.
still haven't succumbed to any of the current sales. can't see that continuing.

Good to hear that mate. I'm thinking of you. Do you still get work done with all this going on?

Well, yes and no. My lovely wife helps an awful lot and I seem to manage to squeeze in quite a lot in between the worse moments. Truth is we lead quite a blessed life here and I constantly remind myself how lucky we are to live in such a beautiful part of the world.

And you... How are things generally?

nearly afternoon all.
sunday is usually cooking day. my 15 hour bbq beans are nearly ready and cajun bagel chips are crisped to perfection.
ecigone don't reply to emails over the weekend. new drone is being used in rta configuration. rebuilt the zeus x with a couple of freshly wound tri core 316Ls and mixed my first ever mint based liquid. was going for a 'murray mint' vibe so there's caramel and spearmint. tasty. TC mode which i seldom use but vaping great.

Yes the vape on the 250C board is amazing. I did exactly the same with mine..... Suddenly a TC vape seems doable

part of my problem is i always forget which coils are in which atty and if they're ni80 or ss. should use a text file for reference.

Long sad weekend.
My ex mother in law passed and the memorial was last night. Went for the kids and got stuck dealing with ex family i havent seen in over 15 years. Wasnt so bad all in all.

Getting ready to go to another for a friends wife. She was 38 and died suddenly friday. They have a 17 and a 5 year old.

Really makes you think....

Sending thoughts and prayers to get you through the worst

Going for a walk with my new mod. I love this thing.

Moms driving me nuts I came homes from the gym and she literally threw her nice electric recliner outside our back door because it’s worn out a bit and apparently doesn’t raise and lower the same way anymore. Now that’s her way of saying I need to shell out 300 bucks for a new one for her since all she does is sit in it watching TV. It’s gonna be showing me the ones she wants now until Christmas. Of course my sister wouldn’t help me pay for one either it’s always on me to buy her stuff.

I hate Christmas so much now and ever since she tried to kill herself when I wouldn’t buy her a brand new vehicle stuff like this makes me nervous. She’s acting really weird again. Being super selfish lately and acts like I have unlimited funds. It takes most of my pay check just to keep us both fed and pay the bills. She can work she just doesn’t.

It makes me upset because I thought I got away from this cycle when I moved in with my first girlfriend but before we even made it to our first anniversary she died. Now I’m back to being my moms husband in a way. It’s not a typical mother son relationship.

I hate to say it but sounds like your Mum needs a firm no ma'am kind of no.... Mind you you know her best.

Chin up Buddy

Ah that's so good to hear mate. My wife is also in real estate and I know how demanding it can be.
All is good with me thanks. Me to have a very good life here in NZ. I thank the good Lord on a daily basis for being so blessed. I had it rough back in SA where I come from, so this is heaven like to me.
Got the back yard almost secured. Heat sensor lights and camera is up and running. I'm busy talking to people in SA about electronic beams to round things off. You can't beat them SAns when it comes to home security....
When I have them up, it should be a fortress back there where the bonsais live.
As a matter of interest, these are the beams. Exactly what I need to secure all the back corners...All that's needed is a beam and a keypad.

Good morning shinies

Well lazy start to the week but I guess I've got a good excuse

@Fredman1 glad you've got your security sorted... Well nearly, and hopefully it will act as a deterrent and stop it ever happening again. I always think that the worst thing about this type of stuff is the knowledge that there are mean and local people out there in the neighbourhood.

You're definitely right about SA and security. It's an essential part of living out there sadly. I have several friends who live in and around Durban and they all live that life.... One can only hope that it changes in the future.... Lots of of healing is needed over there

Good morning Shiny's

 

[Opinionated]

Good morning everyone!

I made this for dinner last night:

Southern Goulash

And it made a TON of food. I'm about to find out how well it freezes and reheats.. lol.

Would be great for any large family with growing teenage boys! haha..

Hope everybody has a lovely day!

 

[Eskie]

Good morning shiners!

Just ordered a couple more NarCa RDAs and drip tips from FT - and that is me done for the week. Maybe

Is it Monday there yet? That would be the start of a whole brand new week for you to order and still be done with last week. See? You kept your word and had a brief done moment.

 

[DeloresRose]

Good morning all, and happy Monday!

part of my problem is i always forget which coils are in which atty and if they're ni80 or ss. should use a text file for reference.

That’s why I stuck with SS so long. Too many atties, not enough gray cells... I am set to start using Ni80, and I’m going to start with the unicorn RDAs, because they are easy, they match the mods and I don’t use them elsewhere.

 

[AvaOrchid]

Did anyone else do the Casaa survey? I did, mainly curious about what questions were on it. The answer to the device oriented questions were vague and limited. In my case, that’s probably a good thing.

I definitely did it had that been a survey for anyone else I probably would have not submitted it I'm really cautious about what kind of questionnaires I fill out because I know what a group can do with their data to make it look however they wish but with that one organization I know that my answers are safe from being misconstrued.

Tanked on a Sunday.

Is that a Therion? I use one of those every single day!
