Potentially the biggest WTF vaping news this year?

Won't be able to vape in the hospital grounds though?

Not sure about that. It's such a crazy story, but apparently true.

The hospital has the usual suspects re facilities. Why would they open a vaping shop?

RBCH: Hospital facilities

Sounds odd to me but hope to be pleasantly surprised.

Well, it's not like they would be in competition with any of the other businesses.

Pharmacy, NRT etc. I've seen vapery stuff at WH Smiths outlets.

Perhaps they're going to close down a ward and open a shopping Mall for that delightful, therapeutic shopping experience when you're ill.

Heh. I didn't really think of NRT stuff, you're right though, but it's not core business for them.

It's not the retail competition side of things that strikes me as odd. I could understand it if their Stop Smoking service was asking TripHammer to supply them. A physical shop to go with the cafe and the newsagent is a new paradigm.

Indeed. If an NHS Trust allows this, then going forward how can vaping possibly get banned in the UK?
