mackem 26,209 Posted October 21, 2008 Report Share Posted October 21, 2008 I can understand drinking,cro-magnon man eating fermented apples or fruit,feeling a little bit merry and less inclined to pulp his neighbours skull with a mammoth jaw-bone or flint nodule,probably thought"f*****g hell,Ugggg,this is great"and started trying to ferment his own fruit,could have been the first home-brew kits,but even he must have coughed and spluttered when his missus built the fire out of wet wood and the cave filled with billowing smoke Quote Link to post Share on other sites

shell 42 Posted October 22, 2008 Report Share Posted October 22, 2008 I used to smoke... 20 a day, whatever was cheap, usually Richmonds. Stopped jsut over 12 months ago. Went on those anti smoking tablets, Champix, and haven't looked back. Had the odd moment where I've nearly succombed back to temptation. Hasn't helped that Malc stopped last Christmas for 6 months, and has since started again. Shell Quote Link to post Share on other sites

artic 595 Posted October 22, 2008 Report Share Posted October 22, 2008 (edited) I use to smoke 20/25 a day. I started at 14, then i started to get sharp chest pains! So i quit! Never had that pain again. I enjoyed smoking whilst out socialising, fishing etc...... I think the constant sad adverts helped me quit too! It made me think twice, my children, my life, my partner, the whole picture really. I feel so much better at 31, put a little weight on, but squats wil get rid of that! lol...... still 11stone. To the dick head who stated "I SMOKE CRACK" i hope you dont mate, and if you are then i wont appoligise for calling you that. That is a killer! How much does your habit cost you per day? I've seen kids at 13 on this shite, there dead by 16! Cool isn't it! You started stealing from your family yet? shops? cars? Committed Burglarys? Robbery's? Think twice before stateing such a serious, sad comment! ITS NOT FUNNY! Edited October 22, 2008 by artic Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bird 9,864 Posted October 22, 2008 Report Share Posted October 22, 2008 Stopped 17years ago, feel alot better+fitter, put on weight but stay about 13st or abit lighter when lamping a lot. Feck knows where all the money gone though ray BIRD Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Guest foxyjo. Posted October 22, 2008 Report Share Posted October 22, 2008 GV or cutters. I used to smoke tailor mades, but they got too expensive. Since I switched, i can't bear the smell of them, they smell so much worse then rollies and stay on your clothes and hair for much longer. I'd like to give up, cos it's such a hassle. But I do love that after meal ciggy or with a cuppa...mmmm...heaven! What bugs me is this talk of the NHS not treating smokers. Smokers pay more tax than others, so why should they not reap some of the benefit if they fall ill? The same with alcoholics. If they've paid all that out in tax for donkey's years then should they not be given treatment? Don't get me wrong, I am of the opinion that there is plenty enough money to treat EVERYBODY. I think it's a disgrace that people are denied the pills they need for cancer, regardless of whether they smoke or not, because they are too "expensive". Did you know that the goverment does not provide incubators for premature babies either??? They have to be privately funded. There IS enough money, look at the wages for politicians, grants for art I wouldn't let the dog piss on, the local towns "twinning" with another in the carribean to which the entire council must visit, the money spent on pointless laws to ban ordinary people from carrying on their right to hunt, etc etc. OK...I've gone off point!! I'll sit back and wait for the fireworks....with a ciggy and a cuppa!!!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

No Mack...a different sort of thing i think. I've tried it, but it's never been for me. I don't want to feel half baked on purpose!!!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
