What a weekend and thanks to everyone that helped out on the day and in the run up to the day. Without yer help I would have been lost. I'm not going to name names in case I forget anyone as ye know my head was spinning yesterday from the pre-fest festivities on Friday night, but I really really really appreciated all the help everyone gave me and I'm really happy everyone enjoyed themselves and appreciate all yer kind comments and messages.
I thought everyone of the vendors made a fantastic effort with their stalls and I know the support they gave all of us with the prizes/promotions/juices etc was really appreciated by everybody. The vendors who couldn't make it and supported event had a big part to play as well and a massive thanks to you all.
The Abbeyleix Manor Hotel and its staff were top class and the local people that we met were very receiving and encouraging to everyone and I know we even managed to convert a few smokers which was a big plus.
I better acknowledge the help my wife gave me as well for the last few months as I forgot to mention her in my little thank you speech yesterday as I was very nervous but mrs newmark
thank-you for all your help for the last few months and been so understanding of my madness
Thanks also to my Mam who was a great help on the day
It was great to meet all the people that came from Northern Ireland, England, Italy and the USA, they all made special efforts to come to Vapefest Ireland and really contributed to making it a success.
To every single person that came thank ye for supporting the event and being part of it, it is the people that came to the event that made it so good and I hope will be an annual event going forward.
I really enjoyed meeting everyone of ye and my only regret is not getting to talk to people more as its very hard to get around to everyone in a day or so
Hopefully the peeps who missed this year will have a bit more notice next year and make it to next years one
Here's a few pics I got, I didn't get many but if anyone else has any it would be great if ye could mail them to me at
[email protected] and
I will then put them up on the website and FB pages.
If anyone wants to see some footage of yesterdays event I think there will hopefully be some on DaveK's show "Daves Tackle Box" which is on tonight at 9pm and repeats can be seen under the recent show section as well for anyone who misses it. The link for it is
