smoking

Recently Captain Lisa Head was killed in Afghanistan defusing a ’daisy-chain’ bomb.

Before she started, she sat behind a wall and smoked 4 or 5 ciggies to calm herself.

There are those who would deny her that small comfort.

Quoting: Steve  Greenwood
Will you all stop talking about bloody smoking!!
I’ve been trying for two months to give up and am finding it really hard.
I’ve reduced my consumption from 40 per day down to 10 and looking forward to reducing it down to none.
I’ve never had a serious illness in my life but the cost is now prohibitive and economics will decide my fate.






Good for you Steve, just keep going, one day at a time.

:


Reducing the number of cigarettes gradually is a far better way of giving up smoking than giving up all together - that is too much of a shock to the system.  Overcomig the craving for nicotine is one thing, overcoming the habit is much harder.

Just persevere, you will find your breathing is much better and food tastes better too, especially that delicious French food.  I know I felt the benefits over twenty five years ago.

I find that very hard to believe, Marie. I’ve never heard of a five year old girl smoking!
