  1. G’day There was a time ( yes I was a 40 year smoker) when they started to put the cigs to be safer. First it was filters. No I didn’t smoke at that time but by the time I did I wouldn’t smoke anything without one “ cause it was safer.” Hell they even brought out filters for roll your owns to make them sound safer. Then it was making cigs with lower nicotine levels by putting pin holes in the butt and proudly making the claim that it was somehow safer to smoke. And the worse thing people, believed by that by smoking the lower nicotine levels One was able to give up. What a crock off sh1t that was. Now that want us to believe that vaping is not only “safe” but allows people to give up the cigs. Its still full of addictive nicotine, you’ll still be addicted customer for life but don’t worry it’s safer.... And this is from the same people who have continually lied in the past. Have they suddenly got it right? I know they couldn’t. Same Crowd Same Lies
  2. G’day Living in the sub tropics you have 2 seasons really. Summer which is hot and extremely humid. You can get in the mood to complain about it but next thing you get a summer storm. Can’t beat a good storm . Yes they can be destructive but usually they dump an inch or two of rain in an hour. It leaves you nice and cool and is the time of the year when you get the best rains. So it’s the wet season really. The other 9 months are cool and dry. Never gets to cold except for a week maybe when I might complain and actually close our back door proper as we usually just have a locked security insect screen door. I don’t have a heater, I don’t have a jumper or thick jacket. Best time to grow tomatoe and basil as the summer is too wet too hot and what doesn’t rot get eaten by the insects! Still a great time to swim too as the water temp usually doesn’t drop below 20C so early mornings it’s usually warmer than the air temp. Hard to pick but.... My vote goes to the 9 month dry season or winter.... Chris

  7. G’day Ive just got out of hospital again... don’t ask I’m out and home! I got to go to the creek with little miss 4 and a 1/2 and big mister 7 from next door. Wow what a great place. Theres big pools of water full of bulrushes and little fish and cool tadpoles. There’s dragon flies and big grasshoppers and the sound of cicaders. The dried gum leaves and bark not only crunch underfoot but smell real great too. Even though it’s just down at the bottom of the street it’s a million miles away when you get caught in the moment. I hope to get invited again even though I did get in trouble for tracking mud in thier moms kitchen..... C
  8. G’day I’m off to a old mates place. ( So old his 25 year old calls me uncle Dave) He puts on a great spread for Australia Day. I might be tempted to have a few barley based beverages as well. And someone’s sure to offer me a smoke... “go on ... just one” I’m strong in my quit so im not worried in the least! But I get to shine my light. I’ll get “ can’t believe you still don’t smoke”and “of all people to quit can’t believe you dont smoke anymore” I’m a X smoker now. No preach’n no ....self serving stories.... they are smokers and recognise BS pretty fast! So like I said ...shine my light. That’s all I have to do. Happy Stralia day C

  18. G’day I know of a few people that vape and sort of fluctuate between the vape and cigerettes so I don’t think it’s a real way of weaning of the cigs. All I hear from them is the same kind of excuses as I used as a smoker. One friend said something to me once that really stuck a note with me and I’ve never forgot it. When I asked him why he didn’t vape anymore his rely was that one night when drinking he went through enough vape to be equal to 80 cigs. No sore throat or anything to warn him to back off. He only realised next day and gave it away as he was worried that he could poison himself. He had friends that had been made sick as there was not way to tell how strong the stuff was. He still smokes cigerettes. No nicotine based juice can legally be sold here so there is no regulation or standards to protect anyone. That’s a worry, it’s worse than illegal drugs you don’t know what your going to get through the mail from some clown on the internet. Sorta a bit worrying when it’s suposed to be safer than smoking cigs. So vapers that I know are still smokers really they just change between the nicotine delievery style, the addictions the same. Like smoking I hate the addiction but like the people cause I was that addict once C
  19. g’day NOPE.... simple
  20. Gday A news report from Australia where it’s not legal to sell vaping liquids that contain nicotine. Testing has shown over 1/2 do contain nicotine. https://www.abc.net.au/news/2018-06-12/not-all-e-juices-are-as-nicotine-free-as-they-claim/9857540 Pretty disturbing as many unwitting are putting nicotine into bodies.
  21. G’day NOPE..: I don’t smoke nomore C
  22. G’day Im summer and I’m 15. Sorry about the pic I’ve just had a bath and I’m having a bit of a bad hair day. Not that it really worries me that much cause I’m pretty much totally blind nowdays. Oh on that subject I’d better mention pretty deaf now too. Now don’t you worry about that I’ve got 3 “seeing eye humans” I’ve trained. All a dogs got to do is stand by the door and give one bark and one of them will carry me down thx stairs. A quick pee, a long sniff around then they’ll take me back up the stairs.... simple. Life has its moments, I’m still a great chicken chaser. I pretend not to notice them and let them get real close. Then a quick lunge lots a barking and the silly things flap thier wings and make a big racket. Then they make that sooky noise, silly things they are. Yawn... well that’s enough talking.... I’ve got sleeping to do...
  23. G’day NOPE .... cause I’m a non smoker C
  24. g’day Not One Puff Ever. Cause I won’t smoke C
  25. G’day NOPE starts today C

About us

QuitTrain®, a quit smoking support community, was created by former smokers who have a deep desire to help people quit smoking and to help keep those quits intact.  This place should be a safe haven to escape the daily grind and focus on protecting our quits.  We don't believe that there is a "one size fits all" approach when it comes to quitting smoking.  Each of us has our own unique set of circumstances which contributes to how we go about quitting and more importantly, how we keep our quits.
