I going to try giving up smoking...Again

Sorry guys,been laid up for the last two weeks with some evil flu/migraine/sickness bug that has totally knocked me for six.
I spent all of Christmas day under a duvet,shaking with cold,whilst sweating gallons,and that has been one of the better days!.I managed to eat some turkey and cranberry sauce yesterday,but REALLY paid for it today....If you know what I mean...!.
Today,after flushing the 'innards', I am finally feeling a bit better,so caught up with my PM's (Thanks guys!),and just thought I would say on this thread,I will be back as soon as I feel more recuperated!.
As far as the smoking is concerned.......
Nope!,no ciggies so far!....Non at all!.
TBH,I have totally lost ANY urge to smoke now,maybe being as sick as a pig over the last 2 weeks has helped!,but whether it be vaping,or being laid up in bed,I am not sure,but I can go all day,without the 'urge' to smoke now!.I know myself well enough to know I will never start on the baccy again,so no problems there!.
It is now just the case of lowering the nicotene content in the e-juices,which I have already done...
From 2.4mg,down to 1.8mg and lower,so I am pretty pleased with myself TBH!.
For Christmas,Mrs DT bought me a really nice 'sub ohm' vaporiser kit...An Innokin Cool Fire 4 plus,with a isub apex tank (this)...

And I have to say,even with the Poundland 88Vape E-juice,this thing is amazing!,I am now looking to get some 'proper' E-Juice!.
Anyway,6 weeks on Monday guys!,and all going VERY well!.There may well be a couple of extra years in the old dog yet!.....;)
Nice! I was looking at that one. Just ordered a new battery and looking at a kanga tech sub ohm tank.
 
Great to hear from you DT. Sorry to hear you've been ill but glad to see that the cravings are on the wane. Keep at it.
Cheers Buddy!,
Still not feeling too good,but for the first time in god knows how long,fit enough to drive the car into the city this morning and get some more E-juice!.
And what an E-juice I got!...Pricey,as it was from a shop,but worth every penny!,in the Cool fire 4 plus,apex tank,0.5 ohm coil,this stuff is unbelievable!,makes me wonder why I did not jack in the baccy sooner!,well,better late than never I suppose!.
And what E-juice has impressed me so much?....
Cuttwood Boss Reserve!...A league apart from the 88Vape/Poundland stuff,this tastes sublime!,it is like a caramel/toffee/nutty/milky/cookie dough flavour!,Mrs DT has been overwhelmed by it too....So I have already ordered another 60ml online,which was a damn site cheaper than the price I paid from the shop!.
The taste isnt as good in the Jac Vapour e-cigs,or the 88Vape pens,as it is in the Coolfire 4 plus,but not too far off!,so am well happy!.
 
In a word, no. There is absolutely no evidence to suggest a 'gateway effect', however much the govt, big tobacco co and the Daily Mail would like this to be the case. Professor Robert West has, on the other hand, published scientific work which supports vaping as a healthy alternative to smoking.
Vaping will, in effect, be banned come May, so I wouldn't worry about it anyway. ...........so as to refuse millions of smokers a safe means of quitting.

Hence my next purchase will be a Kanger Subtank Plus,50 metres of 26awg Kanthal A1 Wire,and a litre bottle of 72mg/ml Pharmaceutical Grade Nicotine in VG....:D
Plus a few other bits n bobs...
 
Smart. Get yourself on POTV, all the info you need and more. PG and VG juice, kanthal and wicking shouldn't be affected.. nic, who knows. Keep it dark and in the freezer. Get as many tanks as you can if you intend to vape for a hobby (you can sell on at no loss), otherwise you will find that nicotine isn't addictive/health adversive after all. Well, no more than caffeine (but without the headaches during withdrawal). Seriously.

Oh, and please sign the 100k petition. Please.
 
Carl, no. It is not an attempt a la Wales, wherein a blanket ban on outdoor vaping was attempted. As far as I know, this has been defied in the interim, I may be wrong.
The ban involves the sales of products re.
The problem is an ever common issue of erosion of what millions of people sacrificed their lives for, the ability to choose. Real (as in real, not sponsored) studies have shown vaping to be 95% safer than tobacco. The 5% remainder has already been argued away as 'coil burning' or 'wick burning' issues, which tend to only happen once or twice, and hence avoided. Because coughing up the ring of Hades reminds us of smoking. Coughing is bad.
I haven't coughed in 9 months, and I used to cough every other minute.
Disinformation is the ploy, as certain media are tied into BAT profits, and the government are dearly trying to continue the funding of blowing sith up. They just can't afford it if the faggers don't pay the tax AND jump into an early grave.
Hence Euro/BigFag/BigPharma/NHS collusion to ban everything, bar what is proffered as 'Tobacco Harm Reduction'.
I and millions of others no longer use 'tobacco' and are no longer addicted to the plethora of (4000+) chemicals used to keep the coffers (coughers?) full.
I enjoy a puff of my custard/strawberry/whatever juice because I like the taste, but I can put it down for days.....
But it will be banned, near as dammit, in May.
I feel sorry for the billions of current smokers who could benefit.

Please sign the 100K petition. I am not sure if the mods will allow the link.
And a letter to you MP wouldn't go amiss. Probably won't help, but hey ho.

You are allowed to shave, but gov approved........
First they came for the bikers, I was not a biker, so I did not care
then they came for the SE shavers, but I was a DE shaver so I did not care
then they came for the vapers, and I did not care
etc cobblers.
 
I've just read up on this a bit - the argument will indeed rage. Voting to leave the EU in order to be able to continue vaping, eh? 95% safer than cigarettes wins the argument for me - plus an advertising adjustment or even ban. I can't recall seeing a vaping ad on TV, mind.
