71 years old and finally kicked Mr Fag in the backside with a size 12 ... but is it too late, has too much damaged been done. I started as a young sailor when I was 19, and yes, I do feel better for it, but there must be lots of people around my age who ask this question ... Is it too late, has too much damage been done ?

David-the-Chimney, it is never too late :D

You carry on wearing your size 12's and hang on to the fact that you do feel better for stopping. Your body is such an amazing thing and as soon as you put out that last cigarette, it starts to repair itself straight away. Within 20 minutes your blood pressure returns to normal.

Have a look at the following link that JillyGirl popped up a while ago;
