Nearly there Maggy. I've looked at a few over the last few months but decided (was forced by Mrs Angry) to hold off for a six berth.

Well done Mr A and all my fellow members who have managed to conquer the smoking habit.

I shudder to think how much money I would have set fire to over the 30 years I have been nicotine free had I continued to smoke. I gave up for various reasons not least the health of my son who at, at the age of 2, had started to develop asthma. Seeing my healthy non-smoking son now playing with our precious grandson brings home to me how much I could have lost had I not kicked the habit all those years ago.

Mr A, I look forward to the day that you announce the purchase of that boat of yours. It has been a long time coming but what an achievement.

Re: Stopping smoking support.

Just realised it's 1 year today!!!

Don't want to come across as smug, but it's been very very easy. I miss smoking because I suppose I enjoyed it, but don't crave it and if I can go one year I can go the rest of my life!!

Cheers

Grim

Re: Stopping smoking support.

Well done Grim. I know you say it has been easy but you must still have been in situations where it would have been all too easy to become complacent and accept that 'one' cigarette.

You are a nonsmoker and long may you remain so.

Re: Stopping smoking support.

Thanks everyone, could have 'wobbled' but didn't. Found a pack in a jacket pocket the other week and just binned them without thinking!

Cheers
