Thanks for the support guys...my mum would never set foot in the doctors surgery to ask for help. Shes one of the generation that cant get her head round the fact that smoking really is that bad. Shes 56.
Shes also in denial, im sure if stopping smoking was a breeze she would have done it years ago, she, like me, finds it excruciating
Oh and now she says...im just going out for one of those. Like speaking the word will make it real.
She smokes one of those 2.34 packets of amber leaf every 1.5 days. She USED to smoke Old Holburn, a big pouch every 5 days or so.
She did stop...for 100 days...till she picked up a dogend outside the supermarket...next day back to fullfledgedconfidenceknockedwontbedoingthatagaininahurry smoker.
I say to them that im not trying to convert them...if they want to choke thier lungs out its thier choice...however and not going to quietly watch them do it...im going to noisily object till its easier to stop smoking than to listen to me prattling on all day
Dp...used to be a good 40-60 a day as a lorry driver...not sure how many hes smoking in the smoking office now but only 2-3 in the evenings.
Another Day achieved folks...nearly anyway!
