Hi Everyone!

[nsd_user663_42220]

Hi all,

I've "lurked" this forum since I went cold turkey last Thursday.

Today is my 8th day without the dreaded nicotine.

I've smoked since I was 19 years old and turned 50 at the latter half of last year.

The first 10 years I was on cigarettes and averaged 40 per day.

The last 21 years I have been on Hamlet Miniature cigars (hope it's ok to mention the name!) and was averaging 15 per day with full inhalation.

What was I thinking!

Although many of you didn't know it, you've been a great source of strength and encouragement during my "lurking" period and I just wanted to say thank you.

Here's something from the past that will hopefully give you all a good laugh...

I'm looking forward to my stay here and my steady rise to that penthouse!

Welcome Capitan. 8 days is a great achievement, top job.

Hamlet cigars eh? You must've been a proper whiffy smoker! No offence, but even when I smoked I couldn't stand the smell of cigars, and now they make me want to hurl!!

Keep on keeping on, the penthouse is worth all the effort.

Thanks for the welcome ladies

Hells bells Helsbelles (see what I did there), and there I was thinking I was being all suave and debonair!

Did you watch the Dave Allen YouTube sketch I posted above? Quality comedy from a quality comedian who is sadly missed.
