Mess - smoking

who tho?

Custy!

Well us all realy, we didnt start this nasty habit cramming them all in between other activitys.

ah ok

am a bit slow atm

you stay off the fags as well lou, they wont help at all, your in control of the fag thing, stay in control of it.

i know, i havent smoked

i bet my asthma would get better if i started again tho, damn thing only came on when i gave up!

I have my inhalators and binged on malbrough lites on my birthday two days ago and am heartily sick of them.

I stopped smoking six years ago but since having the odd one socially from last september I've began craving them nights I'm the opposite of social.

Monkey trousers, good choice!!!!!
Lou, your bodys readjusting, you will feel better soon

i stopped on nov 25th!

i dont recall my body doing this last time

i'm getting old

godlaming, lou? Where the heck is that? It sounds made up ... Thanks for the offer of help. Same for you with the Thailand situation ...

custy, sorry to 'gang up' but I agree with cc, the social smoking is a disasterous route. I don't know anybody who has ever managed just social smoking. Except dp actually who has never had to quit because he's never been addicted. Whenever he has a big stress on he buys a pack of ten, smokes for 2 days or so then that's it. And if he goes out for a drink with someone who smokes he'll have a couple and that's it. In the 11 years I've known him it's never escalated. Thoroughly infuriating.

lou, quitting smoking does make asthma worse. Smoking anaesthetises the tiny hairs that line the lungs and therefore paralyses the cough reflex which is over-active in asthmatics.

BUT as a GP said to me, years ago I'm ashamed to say, at some point if you're asthmatic and you smoke, it will creep up on you and your lungs will develop serious lung disease of some form. I'm worried that's now for me.

if

godalming is near guildford

And is it nice there? Do you have a blissful village school? Is everybody nosy? Is there only one gay man?

ha yes

i will find you a picture of hte infant school and post it

village life is ummm not for me

good for the kids tho

Do you work there or commute?

local infant school

thats the one in my village , 2 of mine attended, the youngest goes to the neighbouring school on account of his special needs (they couldnt make the adaptions at this school)

i live in the village

sahm

need work tho

Total contrast dd's school

I love her school by the way. I just imagine it's totally the opposite to a 'village' school.

Dp's dream for dd is a school that looks like yours lou!

thats a very red site !

The uniform is red too. Red and grey. Quite cute actually.

Can I recommend The Voice of Tobacco by
Richard Craze, through www.Whiteladderpress.com

ds2's school is more of a 70's style building, but i love the way they work there, the head is fabulous

i prefer her to the one who took over at my local one half way through my kids attending
