    Chuck the fags mate thats you clean now I dont miss them 30 years I smoked and if I knew how easy it was to quit I would have years ago. $ grand by next year, that would buy a SPEEDMASTER!

    That's the idea mate :)
    But drinking and smoking go hand in hand for me :(
    So my plan is to buy 20 cigarettes on a Friday.... and put 10 away for the next Friday(wor lass will hide em)
    Then use the money I save to go towards the deposit for a new Speedmaster :cool:
    What could possibly go wrong :rolleyes:

    If you ask me now, (as a non smoker) I would say its the cigarette companies that tell us how hard it is stopping.

    Oh I can relate to that. There's a pigeon mass grave in my parents garden. From the time, I was ten and got my first airgun.
    The grave is unmarked though. Being German, I did not want to leave any evidence; well you know...
    But hey, I was not prejudiced: the pigeons were of every religion, and political background, you could imagine :D

    I started smoking when you could get 5 Park Drive for 1/-, (5p) or 20 No.6 for 3/6d when at school, 3 of us could get the fags, a bap each and share a big bag of chips with our dinner money, I packed smoking in when they hit £1 for 20 Piccadilly/Dunhills, thanks to Maggie Thatcher!:mad:
    Proof that smoking does kill, I'm still 'ere!:grinning:

    Hi BS
    No need to be sorry mate and I'm sorry to hear about your sister
    I was 11yrs old when I caught my older sister and her friend smoking :(
    To keep me quiet they gave me my first cigarette and kept me supplied so I couldn't grass on them :confused: I've been smoking ever since and I'm now 56yrs old :( even my mother would give me cigarettes to run errands and odd jobs for her :eek:
    By the time I left school I had been smoking for 5yrs and then started working so had money to quite literally burn :worried:
    I'm quite chuffed with myself having gone without for the month but know from past experience that it's all to easy to go back to smoking :mad:
    I have a confession though :eek: I've still been getting my nicotine by way of vaping....not ideal but better than smoking...hopefully :p
