Im debating with myself wether or not to comment on this one being a smoker myself! ... (although Ive got 5 ciggies left, patches ready, injection recieved last week and a puffer ready...). I can remember the time when I was in hospital for 2 weeks a little while back and didnt smoke at all, but when I went down to the concourse, it actualy made me feel ill from the smell of others smoking!.... why o why did I start again?. Only a few more hours and hopefully I will be on my way!....
@Earl, people used to call me the Laufende-Aschenbecher when I lived in Germany due to the amount I smoked on the go!
