Tried it, didn't do anything for me, at all, didn't bother. What's the point? Waste a fiver of my cash on something thats well pointless. Have to stand outside in pubs/clubs freezing me nuts off. Also, all my pockets are taken up... phone, wallet, keys.

cant work this one out either, tablets and patches etc help with the addiction, and reduce the side effects of smoking, namely;

horrible wrinkly skin

thin haggard faces

horrible yellow teeth and stinky breath

empty pockets due to cost

lung cancer/oesophageal cancer/hacking coughs and phlegm

 

all of the above suffered by a family member who smoked 40 a day for 20yrs

 

You forgot C.O.P.D incurable lung condition common in smokers almost unheard of in nonsmokers.Big two page article in tonights star.

You would have thought with all the information and health warnings people would have given up the habit years ago,I don't understand what possible benefit they get from it Iv'e never smoked my self so I probably will never Know how the habit can control people to want to harm there health as they do, it just does not make scene to me at all and to pay for the privilege as well crazy,what brought it to my mind was when I went past the Pheasant the other day there was a bunch of them stood in the rain out side the pub smoking I thought they must be dedicated smokers.

 

Rejoice! If they all stopped tomorrow you and I would be making up the shortfall for the voluntary tax that they seem to enjoy paying.

Yes I have heard that one before about people eating more when they pack fags up,it must be an apatite killer as well my Dad was a heavy smoker he was a massive big bloke who was in the army all his life, he started with pains in his back and he went to the doctors they sent him for an x ray at the northern general they found a big cancer in his lungs,a few months later he was this little old man shuffling along he was gone in in 3 months what a waste he was only 72.
