Smoking
So I've decided to stop smoking. I'm only 23 and I've smoked since I was 15. I also have asthma! This is my first day off them, but throughout the day my chest has been feeling tight and my breathing slightly wheezy from time to time! Is this normal? I really hope I haven't done any real serious damage

The human body is not the only thing to which cigarette smoke can be damaging. Smoking inside your home poses a threat not only to

Daily Chat: Wednesday 23rd July 2014
Happy Wednesday Everybody, wherever in the world you are :-) We have that beautiful round orangey thing in the sky again today which is extra nice, although I expect it will be quite the opposite for Glolin Down Under in Australia where it'll probably be a bit more of a moonshine rather than sunshine

If you need some motivation ......
I've just watched a documentary that was originally broadcast last Thursday on BBC2 @ 9:30 (I think) and if you have catch up or TiVo and can see it and need some motivation to stop smoking then if this doesn't convince you I really don't know what will.The second part is on this Thursday again on BBC
