Well, I did it! I managed a night out drinking (got quite sozzled) and didn't smoke once.
Not to say I didn't think about, cos I did, but in a good way.
Kept thinking how relaxed I felt sitting in a pub drinking and not wanting a cigarette.
Got a bit loud and boastful. Kept telling people how I didn't want a cigarette and how proud I was of myself!!
This smoking ban has definetley helped me on nights out.
Ended up round a friends flat who smoke indoors. Almost everyone was smoking, but I didn't feel any temptation. I could smell the smoke on my shirt when I got home. We were only ther for 1/2 hour.
Anyway! Well done me! I'm so proud of myself.
