For me it is doing something I never thought I'd do Patsy - I could quite easily become a non-smoker now, (no vaporisor), and that's an achievement in itself.

It's all well and good people saying "go cold Turkey" and "I did an so can you!" but we are not all the same when it comes down to smoking.

It was almost a glamorous thing when I was younger; the celebs all smoked, the rock stars smoked, the film stars all smoked, it was THE socially-acceptable "pastime" but we all knew it was a fallacy and built on sand didn't we?
Perhaps we didn't though but it was there - the evidence - yet we ignored it, like we ignored the pollution warnings.

I go into work @ about 07:15 and the FIRST thing I notice now is that the blue haze that used to see in 1986 - 1988 on the same journey is no longer there and I don't hear sparrows coughing either! stevmk2

Like Jim - I enjoy my ciggie
Yes it was socially acceptable now its not, but still we get it in the neck when we switch to the vaporiser, which is a very pleasant alternative for all concerned ....
