Well since it is all change in September, new modules, son starting university etc...etc.
I have decided to stop the smoking... 51 years old, been smoking again for 10 years after having stopped for 11. Started when i was 14.
So 14-29.....smoker
29-40... non smoker
41-51.... smoker.
I bought one of those vape machines at christmas, and it has sat on my shelf for 9 months gathering dust... whilst i tried to gather will power.
Today the vape machine is out of the box, getting charged, oil soaking the wick and will be ready to go at 5pm.
Here goes again at knocking the fags on the head... before they knock me on the head...
At £ 8.50 a packet of fags... i smoke cheap fags, if you smoke a big brand name they are £ 10.00, so saving the money would be handy too...

Well done you
I stopped the fags 30 years ago when they were only £1.50 a pack. Sorry to say I first had a puff aged about 11

Well done to you Judith.
30 years is a real achievement. I guess you can be considered a non smoker now.
When i stared i used to get the fags at the corner shop... 3 fags, 3 matches and a piece of match strike in a plain brown paper bag for 15p.
Can you imagine the outcry now if newsagents did that!

Just had my first puffs on the vape machine.
Not bad at all, didn,t cause a massive coughing fit and got a okay drag out of it... might be alright after all

Hi Matt.
What is NRT?
my friend Vinnie tried the stop smoking pills, he had to phone his GP every other day because the pills can cause suicidal thoughts!!!

Ah right Matt.
I have never tried gum or patches... just started with the vape. Last time i quit i had one of those plastic pipes with nicotine gel in it. I just chewed the pipe into shreds in the end and just threw the chewed remains out and quit.
This time i am going to give the vape a go until i get bored of charging/ filling it....
