No worries, good result for you in the end, by the sounds of things.
I only dabble a wee bit with mixing these days, just a tart, a Turkish coffee, and a breakfast cereal. Is useful having PG, VG, and nicotine to hand, mind, to make up the shortfills.
Gotta confess to being a bit of a @manabush fanboy. Martyn's a master mixer, and an all round good egg. Nothing beats Indigéne Paraxu, imo, although Five Pawns' Black Flag Risen comes close.
Must check out that goose thingamy you mentioned... ;-)
