Smoking

Hi,

I gave up 8 years ago and I gave up drinking eight and a half. I couldn’t do one without the other.

My dad smoked for 50 years and was very ill with COPD for ten which developed into Emphysema. It was really horrible to watch him decline over those years. Especially in the latter years, he couldn’t walk more than ten feet.

I’m very glad I gave up.

I stopped smoking about 15 years ago when working in a newsagents. This man walked in and he had just put a cigarette out so when he came up to this counter i suddenly realised “I must smell like him of horrible stale cigarettes”, and from that day I never smoked.
