Totally agree Pete, I smoked for 19 years & gave up 6 years ago cold turkey & did away with the grog at the same time, I can remember being so unhealthy back then & now I think & look back at how stupid I was, my son used to have to put up with 2 smokers in the car....... I feel so bad about it now but at the time it was like who gives a shit, my ex still smokes but luckily my son, who is 18 now has never had a smoke.... he had enough when he was young :oops:
Richo if you ever do something really good for yourself its this! don't cheat don't give in to temptation & remember it get easier the longer you go without ;)

Thanks for the encouragement everyone and I will get some lozengers for those desperate times. 8)

What I really need to do is get some motivation and find something to do with my spare time for a distraction.

Thats a staggering amount of money to set fire to :D

Imagine putting that aside - you'd be able to get a new bike every couple of years!

Richo I smoked for about 30 years so multiply 10,000 cigarettes per year x 30 years the latest price of $0.68 cents per gasper :cry:
