I wank too much.

 

There are stalactites forming above the bed.

 

You should start aiming it at the floor for a bit to give your bedroom a real Blue John mine feel.

I did, but the dog kept wandering in at the crucial moment.

 

He's a border collie cum Labradoodle now.

The smokin ban helped me - went from smokin 3 a pint (that was only 9 a night cos I'm a lightweight) to giving up cos I couldn't be arsed to stand outside and get wet or cold or more often than not both!!

 

Nine pints and 27 cigarettes is hardly lightweight - if you added a whiskey chaser with every pint you'd be quite hardcore, every night mind.

Day 4 for me now and no real problems. My mate, however, lasted till the walk back to the train station at Leeds.

Everyone get through the weekend ok? :thumbsup:

Still in.

 

Friday was a real struggle though. I reckon I'd have found it easier if I'd gone out. It was the drive home knowing I'd be sat in all night that was really tempting me.

 

Somehow keeping busy is the key.

 

My right arm's gonna be massive.

Proud of you :thumbsup:

Nearly 44 yrs without a fag for me, but you don't hear me banging on about it.

You must've started and stopped at a very young age then. From when you were 6 to when you were 8?

Sorry, I should have made myself clear.

I haven't smoked any cigarettes in that time.

 

You were, of course, quite correct in your assumption.

You cheeky scamp.

But thanks for the compliment: I actually gave up at the age of 23, straight after I headlined day 2 of Woodstock.

Like bloody crack heads.

I'm tempted to start again seeing as I'm practically the only one on a night out who doesn't smook.

 

I might even lose a bit of a weight too, fuck weightwatchers.

In which case, I'm taking up glue sniffing.

No fucker seems to do that anymore either and it doesn't half curb your appetite.

She's going cold turkey whilst waiting for the e-cigs to arrive in the post

There is a place opened on Wigan Road, near the Stags Head selling nothing else but e-cigs.

There are loads of them sprouting up for folk who can't work the tinterweb thingymabob.

 

I'm no business expert, but I see lots of empty shop units within 2 yrs.

Well don't come crying when you're spotty. My idea is loads betterer

But you'll stink of fags (which stunt your growth) and you'll have to stand in the rain.

I'm a dwarf, I have strong perfumes for such and eventuality and if I don't want to look a twat sat on my own in the corner with a half of mild I have to sit in those smooking sheds. Ner.

Them firework shops never seem to last that long, so you might be right.
