Hi from A Newbie

Hi guys .. my error I thought I had fully joined up here a while ago . My stupid error I had not posted anything before ,so will post relative garbage to get to 10 posts . I also belong to AAEC and UKV

Have been a Vaper now for 12 months , amazing how the time has passed by .For right or wrong instead of purely enjoying what I have started I immediately seemed to get embroiled in the nonsensical politics involved in #ecigs

 

[gibla53]

Immediately started reading about the politics- Chris Price (Rolygate), Clive Bates etc and thought this is madness + should not be allowed to happen

 

[gibla53]

I watched the farcical ENVI "debate" with Dr F in Feb 2013 and thought this madness could become a reality .Why? How?

 

[gibla53]

It took a far while for the reality of the situation to sink in ..nothing at all to do with Health ,pure greed + monopolies were the answer . Govts stuck in needing the £$£|$

 

[gibla53]

Fantastic work by certain Scientists to help eg Dr K Farsalinos, Jacques Le Houzec they are incredibly supportive along with Sir Clive in his advocacy role

In my short time as a Vaper 4 memorable events

1 NEES meet up in South Shields end June If I remember

2 Brussels balloon trip for ENVI vote July 10th - great time met many folks inc Liam Bryan MEP candidate

3 Vapefest - camped in a MH at the back of the venue ..too ill to take any active part on the Saturday !!!!

4 Ecig summit in November again met some memorable people before + after eg John Diver , Ash Malpass + many others ,shook Clive's hand

Struggling on now ... Helped to get the FB group EVUN up + running .This eventually has resulted in the Consumer Assocs across Europe to agree joint communiques + hopefully this sort of thing will expand as time goes on

Hi Alan LOL .... you will eventually have enough posts ...... By the Way everyone Gibla53 is Alan Beard, the Chairman of UKVIP. He wants to be able to post here personally as Planet of the Vapes is a very influential forum with some of vapers top active friends
