This April ..I lost my life long companion.... The best friend anyone could ever wish for.... We are together every day....for 62 or more years.... I am numb....I still expect her to walk through my door ... She died of a smoking related illness.... It hurts to know I can help people here quit ...but not my best friend.... She still believed cigerettes offered her something... It took cancer 12 weeks to do its worse.... I never once considered a cigarette.... I have heard ,learned..seen ..that smoking would not change a dam thing.....

NsJo.... Manchester is the unofficial capital.. folk follow in our tracks..follow are traits, speak our lingo and copy are dress sense! We are more powerful than people think lol Liverpudlian here ....I think Liverpool might argue with you there...lol....
