El Bandito

Phew! A good sensible purchase. A blacked out V8 truck with black 20 inch rims? All you need is a Harley and we can call it a midlife crisis.... Oh wait.... "Bitch Buggy"? "BBBBB" Bakon's Big Black Brmm Brmm....

Brilliant work! Congratulations!

Fore! And Ava..what in Gods name is a Tookus?

Good work Tiff. For the bad days, brute force and ignorance can be our last resort. ALL the power is in OUR hands...

No idea. But great work Gem!

Picked a date Read Allen Carr. Date was going to be the day I returned from vacation. 11 hour flight I thought would be useful. Quit a couple of days early, on vacation and decided I would accompany La B on her smokes. Thoughts/tools 1. Nobody can make me smoke. Or Quit. It is entirely up to me. 2. Forever? Too much. I won't smoke today. Tomorrow? We will see about that tomorrow. 3. Smoke break? Let's walk. 4. Crave? Talk to it.

Golfing today! But a big fat NOPE from me

Good to hear from you C!

One time, I posted that I had accidentally blocked people that had reached out to be my friends... Bakon helpfully asked; "Rocket Scientist or Brain Surgeon?" The Rocket Surgeon was born....

Many moons ago, I shared an apartment with a casino manager from Yorkshire. You will need to be of a certain vintage to understand this one... As you may have surmised if cuddly = fat! El Bandito is comfortably extra cuddly. However, on a Saturday night, like every other poster here, there are times, when I look in the mirror, and know it is the the night.....oh yeah baby. I emerged from the bathroom, a towel around my waist, my hair slicked back...oh yeah baby... Ian, The Yorkshireman, looked me up and down and said; "Fook me! Miami Vice meets 't Weather Girls" I'm not sure that I have ever stopped laughing, or that my ego has ever recovered!

Not just with the newer quits.... Keep on keepin on Marti.

Brilliant Tiff. You did amazingly. Every single part of my day was punctuated by smoking and every single routine had to change. Getting up. Going out. Driving. Shopping. Working. Not working. Drinking. Eating. Vacationing....and on and on Then, when you feel you want to celebrate making some changes...bang! You want a cigarette. It can seem relentless. It is not relentless. You are winning, defeating triggers one by one. It gets easier and easier and the benefits keep building. Sometimes 'sheer bloody mindedness' is all we have as Marti posted elsewhere. Today will be better Tiff. Well done.

Good to know you can still post tripe... ;-) Sheer bloody mindedness...that's what stands out to me. Sometimes, we just have to hang in there; to tough it out. That's what I find inspiring in your quit. You are a force of nature sometimes Marti. I love it.

Brilliant work! Well done.
