I gave up the fags when the chancellor of the time put them up to £1.75 for 20.

I did not realise the damage I had already done untill I had a heart attack in 2001.

I subsequently had angioplasty and stents inserted to keep my clogged up arteries open and keep me alive.

When you are lying awake on a hospital operating table with a doctor feeding a catheter in to an artery through a hole in your groin it brings things in to perspective.

When the x-ray monitor they use to see where to guide this catheter to is in your line of site and you can see what you have done to your arteries through smoking and they have to use a catheter with a special head to bore out your arteries and remove the crap before they can insert the stent to hold your artery open it frightens the life out of you.

Don't use excuses and cop outs for not stopping smoking it almost killed me and I have seen the evidence.

If you respect yourself and your life quit now.

It is not easy but it can be done.

If you have given up stick with it it gets easier in time.

It is only your life we are talking about.

Good Luck

that's what gets me - how any government can make up rules saying smokers can't have certain ops etc but still let people start coz they need the taxes to prop up health sevice.

ps i gave up for my baby girl - i want to make sure she's got a dad to look after her - go for it Marie

[rad cap]

The latest Nanny State idea is for ciggies to be removed from display & sold 'under the counter' nudge nudge wink wink  

[Vamps]

Ban ciggies, Ban Alcohol and car tax would have to be in the thousands, not hundreds.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Only a thought.

why not? - if you smoke already you can get smokes on prescription - otherwise you can't buy them - nobody will start then

sorry for being a sanctamonious ex-smoker but it's been so damn hard i wish i'd never been able to start
