Another thought provoking read, thanks JillyGirl.

I always remember the tissue paper test. Not only does it look really bad when you blow the smoke out onto the paper, but I think it is even more frightening to know that if you inhale, then blow the smoke out - it is still stained, but not as much so - This just goes to prove that it is already making it's way down to lining your airways and then your lungs...

No wonder your body takes quite a battering through smoking.

I'm really glad that I don't smoke anymore :-)

Weird isn't it. If I'd been presented with that when I smoked I probably would have followed the links and read the stuff, then that would have been that and I'd have gone off and probably had another cig. Now I've stopped smoking I won't read it. May have stopped smoking now, but after 33 years of smoking I'd rather not know what's in store for me possibly a few years down the line from here. Funny how much we're prepared to bury our head in the sand when we smoke but then that's the power of addiction.

Too true Sinfree, I would have probably read it with a ciggy on the go at the same time. Crazy what nicotine does.

Not what you're looking for?
