A guy went round selling mops, cloths etc round our area when I was younger, he made out he was deaf and / or disabled, a neighbour said no to him once and he dropped the act and said fuck you then. Lovely. He didn’t sell any more mops after that

Yeah. I mashed an alloy on an old car, two fellas came around in a van and fixed it up. I think it was somewhere in between £50 and £75. I just googled and picked someone local with decent reviews 🙂

Sick! Thanks bud. I don’t mind about the money dude was an absolute Brian though. I didn’t do that, yes you did because you didn’t give me 1 second to move. Even though it was my right of way.

Quit smoking for ages, couple of weekends away and nights out and I seem to have started again. Did a quick tobacco run between stressful work calls this morning ☹

Lame

Some old boi coming in Thursday. Look out for the worst parallel parked car in the U.K. after this, going absolutely nowhere near a fucking kerb.

Thing is with smoking you have to be really done with it to quit. Took me years of quitting, but it took a total different look on my smoking to finally stop .  
Lump in throat was a main reason and a quit smoking book helped massively.

The actual thought of having a ciggy makes me feel sick , my housemate smokes and he reeks , it’s rank.

That’s where you have to be , temptation to smoke and it smelling nice after a few beers means you’re not ready.

A friend of mine who was on a pack a day quit using Allen Carr easy way. I haven’t really tried that but have heard good things. I’m on day 4 no smoking, it does get easier and my breathing became noticeable deeper yesterday. There’s no bad time to quit again. You said you quit for ages so you have that on your side. All the best.

That’s the book I used. It’s been 2 years and 5 months since I’ve smoked .

Smoking was considerably cheaper though

Ha Considerably cheaper but not exactly gonna be helping you in your 70+ years .  
But by then it will be a whole different world where smoking tobacco is completely banned anyway.

Quitting completely is obviously the best option and again would recommend the Allen Carr easy way book. However, if you do carry on then switching to a vape would be less harmful.

I did that, it is less harmful but also less satisfying, so then I switched to lozenges for a few months which are even less enjoyable and then finally quit those and now have no nicotine whatsoever.

All told it took me years to fully quit and I still haven’t managed to have a complete change of heart. I wish I could say that the thought of it is disgusting but I can’t, the idea of smoking a cigarette is completely delicious but I just don’t because I know it’s horrendous for my health.
