Smoking Dilemma

During the day, when I’m at work, I use an e-cigarette, but absolutely refuse to refer to it as vaping. In the evening, when I’m at home, I smoke roll-ups. After I’ve eaten, I usually have a cigar. I’ve been thinking about taking up pipe smoking, but don’t know how I would manage to fit it in.

Re: Smoking Dilemma

Go cold turkey like I did and give up entirely. Not easy but worth it

I once stopped for nine months, but that was a long time ago. As I've got older, my appetite for cold turkey has diminished considerably.

Oooh it's years since I smelt pipe smoke and watched someone do 'The Ritual' of filling up the pipe and tamping the baccy down before the sucking and lighting. A couple of relatives smoked pipes and I found it fascinating.

Tell you what Haribo, upload a video of yourself (with smelly vision) doing 'The Ritual' and slowly and relaxingly having a puff. You could dedicate a day to that can't you in the Christmas Hols perhaps? Or take a day off work

Or you could just stand next to a bonfire and inhale that instead, would that be better?

That sort of suggestion should not be put to one as easily led astray as I am, Pesta.

If I could do it instead, it might be better, but I would more likely do it as well as, Mups.

Can't you think of anything else I shouldn't do that's not quite so bad for my health, Pesta? You've made me feel that I'm letting you down.

Smoke all three at once, that should solve the time problem.
