andrejuan Posted October 13, 2013 Share Posted October 13, 2013 How times have changed !! I don't know of any tobacconist shops left now ??? But I know there are quite a few "vaping" shops around. Will our grandkids be having this conversation in years to come..... "Does anyone remember the electric ciggy shops, we used to be able to buy liquid nicotine to vaporise in electric pens. The one in town had a Greggs next door where you could buy hot sausage rolls, happy days" I prefer the recollections posted in this thread to be honest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alcoblog Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 Oooh ... I'd forgotten about Sylvester's 'til I saw this thread! I used to go in there every day on my way to art college in the late 70's for Sobranie cocktails ... wouldn't smoke anything else!

Nagel Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 How times have changed !! I don't know of any tobacconist shops left now ??? But I know there are quite a few "vaping" shops around. There's Gauntley's in the centre of Nottingham which is a traditional old tobacconist shop, although they're also a fine wine and cigar shop. And there's a total time-warp tobacconist's shop in Selby that sells every sort of old fashioned cigarettes and pipe tobacco, worth a detour if you're in the area just for the lovely smell. I don't like the smell of tobacco smoke, but the smell of tobacco is wonderful.

Texas Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 Only place you could get 'Gauloises'. Not that I had any great affection for 'Le frog' but I enjoyed the stink. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
