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.
Can’t find my DVD copy of Static. I’d planned on a Static 1 - 5 run which is now, for the moment, ruined.
I have the box set and no dvd player if you are stuck
Cheers thanks - I definitely have it, it’s just which container it is in and ran out of time!
Had to cancel Barca holiday today because of Covid.
Rebooked in May, cost me £100 for that and now have to book another fucking AirBnB. Work is stressing me out no end and I really needed this break.
Feel vaguely better but still testing positive.

Family suicide drama on my doorstep (right by the casino we talked about the other day):
So grim.
Goddamn. That’s heavy.
Tested positive for covid this morning. Feels like a cold. Not stoked and covid thread long muted.
Got a bunch of things going on next weekend so hopefully clear by then.

Have done a ridiculous amount of interviews these last couple of weeks. I’ve realised I’m too nice in them, and keep getting peoples hopes up before rejecting them. I hate being mean, but need to stop being so friendly all the time. I hate recruitment.

I can imagine you interviewing like me. Need to find a bad cop to team up with.

According to @nicfromsidcup AKA Powley’s Instagram, Ben Devine has passed away.
I know he has friends on here and he was an OG poster on the old forum.
Very sad to hear this.
Does anyone know anything?
RIP
No fucking way, that’s terrible!
He was amazing. Haven’t seen him for years but such a funny fucker and mega gnarls. OG forumer as well. RIP, so sad.
One of the coolest things I’ve seen was him and Colin Adam sessioning this huge quarter at Scarborough (I think) on a heathen tour. He was busting out huge fs stalefish like nothing.

I only just heard but apparently it happened a couple of weeks ago and the funeral was in the last couple of days.
He was living in Bristol.
What the fuck man, had an amazing trip with Ben about 10 years ago. Absolute legend and fucking shredded.
RIP
No way that’s awful.
I don’t think I’d seen him since the ripped closing jam (he was hilarious) or maybe wotr. I wondered what he was up to, last I remember he was building concrete parks in Europe and then he fell off the map.
RIP.
