Sideways, alongside the cigar perhaps?

Re: Smoking Dilemma

Pipe-smoking seems too much trouble to me. It looks to need constant attention to keep it going properly. Packing, tamping and frequently puffing furiously. Altogether a bit of a science.

I'd say if you want to relax while smoking, stick to what you do already when you are at home.

Re: Smoking Dilemma

You could try replacing the rollups with the pipe, rather than smoking it as well as.
I have never been a smoker, but I'm led to believe pipe smokers inhale less smoke than cigarette smokers, so they are less damaging to health.

Some time ago whilst going through the process to adopt, I was invited to a talk where the prospective parents were given drug and addiction advice by a Police drugs officer. He had all sorts of mock-up drug samples and explained their respective addiction capability.

Apparently nicotine is more addictive than cocaine, and it only takes five cigarettes to become addicted.
It's no wonder people have such trouble giving it up.

Re: Smoking Dilemma

Well I gave up for many years then decided to start again when I noticed the fags were so cheap at the airport. I couldn't give up a bargain so I bought 200 Royals on the way to Egypt. The first one was bloody horrible but I got through with determination and will power and smoked the lot.




I have given up since.

Re: Smoking Dilemma

Some of the comments have made me think a lot about stopping smoking. I don't like thinking about stopping smoking, so would you all please stop it.
