Do you smoke?

Are you a reformed smoker like myself?

I give up cigarettes over 20 years ago now.

Do you love to smoke?

I enjoyed smoking, loved a couple in the bath, in bed before going to sleep, in the pub with half a lager and a packet of salt n vinegar crisps, after a sunder roast...list is endless.

I gave up after a friend said to me one day, I bet you don't have periods, you have soot falls...............SHOCK! Made me sit up and think and I have never looked back.

Do you hate smoking and are you glad of the new smoking laws we now have?

:rolleyes:i told you to guess sneaky:sneaky:

Yes I smoke.

Would I give up..Yes

Have I tried..several times

Do I enjoy a fag..Hell Yes

The new smoking laws havent really affected me

i put cigarettes

I quit smoking after my neck surgery in march for 2 months. Hubby stressed my out so bad that it left me 3 options. 1) start drinking again (I've got almost 5yrs clean) but I'm not doing that. 2) Kill hubby, but I don't wanna go to jail. 3) start smoking again. Needless to say, I'm smoking again. I'll try again when I'm less stressed.

Dont ask Abbs:D

Do I smoke? Nope.

Gave up at the beginning of this year. Started chewing nicoteen gum. Now addicted to that. At least it's cheaper than smoking and I don't get all the carcinogens that are in cigarettes. Also I don't have to go outside to get my fix. So yeah, the laws have affected me, in a good way.

Nice to read a positive outlook on it:-6

I smoke roll-ups with filters - cheaper, not quite so many chemicals, more taste. I would like to give up, but feel I can't till my life is less stressful !! I couldn't inflict such cruelty on the rest of my family, neither can I afford to buy a complete new wardrobe of clothes when my weight increases ! (well that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it !).

Ok this is where me mates here disown me:rolleyes:

I have never smoked......my mother smoked like a chimney....even as a child I hated it.I have suffered with my chest since very young and smoking even cost me my singing career as singing in the clubs where people smoked affected me so bad I had to give the gigs up.I have never in my life had a relationship with a smoker and Chris gave up smoking long before we met.I have to say health reasons is my problem with it and some friends here know how bad I am once I get my chest problems.....last year I lost my voice for months......much to somes delight Im sure;)Hope me mates dont get the hump now Ive said this:-3:D:-4

I put hate the stuff but I don't really.

I would have a smoke tomorrow if I could.



I started experimenting with cigarettes when I was 13.

I was well & truly hooked by the time i was 19.

Gave it up when I was pregnant with both kids.

Took it back up after that & smoked till I was 35.

Gave it up for 10 years,got cancer & took it back up again.

My thought was well I am going to die might as well have a smoke.



Gave it up as a new year resolution with my son inlaw in 2000.

Haven't had a cigarette since.Never will again.

But I love the smell of a freshly lit cigarette.:-6:-6
