I dont smoke! but Im not one of these people that shouts about how disgusting it is, I say live and let live!! Personally I think the air we breath outside is far worse than any smoke filled pub, and I think in a few years time we will all get a shock!!!

I was at the hospital and a lady offered me a ciggie and i just took it with out thinking, and that was that, i started smoking again. You see once a smoker always a smoker it only takes one puff after giving up, and your at it again. Silly me. Shirley Ann.

My hubby gave up 2 years ago and still craves one, especially after a meal!!

hiya all . i gave up 10 yrs ago at the age of 48.smoked since i was 15.i started to get breathless, so i decided to stop. no brobs then i was diagnosed with asthma . so its better that i dont smoke x

Hi Sandra, Thats why my hubby stopped, I think in those cases its for the best.

hiya roxanne. i used to clean for an old lady, after she had a ciggy she would put her oxygen mask on. i am like ahhhhhhhh x

I've never smoked either and, like Clare, I'm too old to start :o) Helenxx

NO. Heather

Didn't start 'til I was 19...should've known better by then and now I'm 30 + a day and a cough to prove it! Christine

I am also a smoker. I stopped smoking inside my house ab out 5 years ago though, i go outiside for my smokes. I've tried quitting many times, but nothing has worked.

Ashamed to admit it, me also. Stopped for 8 months three years ago, now smoking more than ever. In the middle of completley re decorating the lounge, new carpets, suite etc. There will be a no smoking ban in that room once all finished. I am hoping this will help me at least cut down if not stop altogether. Jenny.

Never have and never will. Wendy.xx :-)

I'd love to give up but I think I need admitting to a detox unit like heroin addicts. Beth :) ~~~~~ hiya Jenny (Mommylonglegs)
