    I stopped smoking for 7 years and then gradually started again when I
    was away on holiday climbing in the Alps. The combination of cheap
    smokes and friends who all smoked did for me.

    I'm fine working in an environment where I can't smoke but when I'm in
    a pub I want to smoke and when I'm stuck on a motorway in a traffic
    jam the first thing I reach for is the cigarettes. I suppose I'm lucky
    in that I smoke about 10 roll ups each day and with Adie not smoking I
    don't smoke in the house when I'm home so if we don't go out that
    drops to about 5 a day but I don't have the out and out willpower to
    jack it in completely. The smoking ban in pubs might influence things
    next year...

  4. Sorry, I made a mistake. I didn't realise the guy was gay and I posted
    something I shouldn't have. I genuinely thought I was just posting a
    harmless response to a "tongue in cheek" response made by BGN. I didn't
    think for a *second* he was being literal.

    Sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry.

    He wanted a death threat, not a "slightly bruised knuckles" threat.

    I smoked between 20-30 a day for about 7 years,a nd thought it would be a
    nightmare to give up. After being in hospital for two days with a collapsed
    lung, and being unable to smoke for that period as well as the fact that it
    would have been bloody stupid considering what I was in with, Ive not even
    thought about another fag for 7 weeks now. It is unbelievably easy to just
    not smoke anymore after being physically unable to do so. I think most
    people thought, wake up one morning and say "Oh, I dont have the flu
    anymore. I'll go buy fags..."

    I've never had problems stopping. I don't seem to suffer a 'physical'
    addiction. My problems have always centred around getting pissed or
    getting pissed off and weakening.

    However I've been stopped now for 3 months or so and feel positive I'm
    off them now.
    Don't get pissed would be my advice.

  10. Please, allow me to explain. At the time I posted this, I was ignorant to a
    key fact. Now that I'm enlightened, I hereby withdraw my post (in principal
    but not actually physically possible). The (!) after the word "fags" was an
    after-thought just to illustrstrate that *I* was aware of any possible
    innuendo - had I known the facts, I'd have left it out.

    Anyway, fucking BIKES eh?

    BIKES ROCK!

    "Mildly dysfunctional lonely people" and "complete cunts" are not quite
    the same thing.

    I'll run you over if I see you, just in case any threat isn't carried out.
    Will that do?

    I dreamt I'd fucking stopped. I had to get up and have a quick couple of
    drags to calm down.
    Thank **** I odn't drink is all I can say, or I'd drink the bleedin'
    breweries dry and be an alki within a week.
    And the chances of that happening are?

    She's a bint in't she?

    I suppose it's like setting the dining
    That's better than *not* setting the table for one who's not died, but isn't
    looking too good.
    Well you're a big lad aren't you? Bound to get offers.

    of 'Oh, have one of mine, do you need a lighter?'
    I'm getting my coat before I say something else

    When I gave up, I knew the temptation to start again would be huge with
    any decent amount of drink taken, so to get it over with I went out on
    the first night I gave up, and got tanked up. I got through the evening,
    (fidgeting and a bit hyperactive) and woke up the next morning to a
    complete lack of hangover. I soon discovered that about half of any
    hangover I'd had was thanks to the smokes. This was such an upside,
    I've never wanted to go back.

    Brian.
