I'm Anthony.
Gave up fagging last year
not for health , ten pound a pack or ten pound a cd ? , hell you can pick up brand new releases on cd for a fiver , cannot even buy ten fags for that.
Amazed at how much money I have left at the end of the month and I still have a £2 a day vape habit

Never smoked, or felt the need to. Maybe because both my parents smoked; there were always cigarettes around, so it wasn't a 'taboo' thing to do as a youngster.

Just read through this thread. I'm now going outside for a fag while I ponder what has been said!
It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

I'm doing my bit. As Alf Garnet said, 'It's patriotic to smoke.'

An ex had me smoking for a couple of years and Ive got to admit I did then see the pleasure in a cup of tea and a benson. It wasnt heavy smoking as I just used to get some of hers even if I was paying for the packet. It was a stressful casual relationship and I used to say I would never go out with a smoker.
I was never addicted but had a period of social smoking when the drink was flowing and the cigarettes were handed around. I do a sort of half inhale
Then one day I realised Im not enjoying this anymore and just stopped. I used to cadge one from a lady friend then somebody handed me a rollup outside a pub and I thought this is disgusting.
Im pretty anti smoking once again and I dont know how many people can afford them now.
