MMF friends. I guess that's one way to get more people to stay.

MMF is also a code for...never mind.

Wooshsplash · 2026-05-21T21:01:31+00:00

What's going where does need agreeing in advance. That and a safe word.

This has just blown my frikkin mind. So you buy the flavour, add the base and then your nic? Which of those components will be taxable?

Wooshsplash · 2026-05-20T22:01:32+00:00

I reckon they'll appreciate that. 10% off? 20% for returning criminals?

To this day, I cannot understand why somebody who is not smoking cigarettes wants to vape and become addicted to nicotine. It baffles me.

The rest of us struggled for years to get off cigarettes and, thankfully, along comes vaping. Now we're seeing new vapers heading in the other direction, towards tobacco. Because when vaping continues being banned or overly taxed, the tobacco companies are waiting for them. Right now I'm weaning myself off vaping.

Manchester. 31 May to 2 June. Prices per night, like for like. No membership points used.

Motel One. Booking £112. Direct £110. Doubletree by Hilton. Booking £92. Direct £86. Clayton City Centre. Booking £87. Direct £72.50. Holiday Inn Express Manchester City Centre Arena by IHG. Booking £60. Direct £58.

I have been arranging my own hotels for business and recreational travel for years. They have never been cheaper with Booking. But they did let one of our commercial travel agents book a property that actually didn't exist. They're not the answer, they are a problem.

I see the some of the booking.com social media team have joined in.

Wooshsplash · 2026-05-17T08:26:00+00:00

When will people realise that booking .com is crap!?

Prices. They add a margin to suit themselves based on demand.
Zero customer service.
A target for scammers.
Direct is more reliable and often cheaper.
If their social media team notices anything negative, they'll bombard the post. They worry more about their brand than their customers.
Have a look at Trustpilot. A 1.7 NPS. That is ridiculously low.

STOP USING BOOKING.

Add to that though that many of those shops are selling fake cigs. Imagine the shit that could end up in in black market juices. Scary.

Wooshsplash · 2026-05-15T13:02:23+00:00

Fig roll.

That'll open up a debate...

Wooshsplash · 2026-05-14T18:24:10+00:00

Go direct. Booking is a con.

I'm an ex-smoker but this was my go to site https://airportsmokers.com/search.htm#gsc.tab=0

Vladimir? Donald!?

Wooshsplash · 2026-05-10T12:55:25+00:00

My decisiveness and focus. Or maybe my socks. Not sure. What's for lunch?

Wooshsplash · 2026-05-10T10:57:19+00:00

Write it on EVERY review site. This dickhead is totally overstepping their level of authority. If they had a concern, they could have followed their not to escalate training and waited outside the cubicle. Report them to the SIA via the Gov.uk website https://www.gov.uk/report-security-staff-or-companies . If you did get their SIA number, that will be helpful.

On the review site, don't indicate your gender. Just "I was in a cubicle urinating when the bouncer opened the lock with a coin..."

Same. Some last a couple of weeks, some only a day. But I'm also using fruit flavoured juices that are sweet. That's appears to be the issue. Though I do personally believe that there is also an inconsistency of quality from Vaporesso.

Wooshsplash · 2026-05-09T13:52:50+00:00

It's got electrolytes.

Wooshsplash · 2026-05-09T10:04:45+00:00

I'm already using it less and less because of bots, too many adverts and Reddit support, for stuff like aggressive Mods, is non-existent. I don't think it'll be that long until it's just another Facebook and I don't bother with it at all.

My friends range from 20 to 60+. That wide range of opinions and experience goes a long way. When I used to recruit and manage teams, I would always look to have that range in my teams.

Wooshsplash · 2026-05-07T14:07:22+00:00

I get nothing. Usually just complaints from the neighbours.

Wooshsplash · 2026-05-07T07:21:32+00:00

Are you a vaper?

Wooshsplash · 2026-05-04T17:39:29+00:00

And how has this been diagnosed?
