Packing In Smoking

Had a e-cig, shite and gave it away. I've worked out I can smoke 20 a day. Lambert & Butler are £7.45p a packet = £2,652.20p a year. That's it, I'm packing in for good, I've got twelve left and after the last one that's it. Anybody else fancy packing in and no telling lies, see who's got the most willpower?

Not that I am an Iphone wanker but today I have reached £500.89 saving, 90 days without, and eliminated 1363 cigs.

 

Blood oxygen levels, circulation, and Co2 levels are back to that of a non smoker, and I am 2.49% closer to not getting lung cancer than I was, and 5% further way from risk of normal heart attack.

 

Trouble is I'm hungry as fuck :D

On those rates I reckon I have smoked over 100000 cigs since 14 years old.

 

Dirty bastard.

Lad I work with down here gave them away 2 years ago - cold turkey. Every time the hunger pangs hit, he tells me he had a half inch cube of cheese. Reckons it fought off the appetite for a couple of hours.

 

He looks like a fucking whippet so he may be on to summat.

Non-smokers cease to smell too. Incalculable benefit.

Chewing gum is your friend

Oh I dunno.

 

Pubs reek of filthy people now.

 

Well the ones I go in :D

The Saddle had a proper mon stench to it on Sunday.

 

I prefer the aroma of a freshly smooked L&B if I'm honest  :D

I remember the first weekend of the ban, I was at The Electric Chair at the Music Box in Manchester - it fucking stank to high heaven of fresh sweat without the cigarette haze.

 

I think nightclubs lost something with the ban, a certain sense of the debauched and dissolute - or perhaps I was just reaching the age of being a bit too old for it all around that time (take note Gonzo and everyone else nudging the thirty mark - make the most of it before it's too late ;))
