  4. Cheers guys! And just to reiterate: Everyone will (or already has) hit this number... unless you relapse!
  5. You've not answered the question ;)
  6. Have you ever sold drugs or offspring, or blackmailed someone to pay for your own drug habit?
  7. What's you bra size? ;)
  8. I would do anything for love... but I won't do that... no I won't do that...
  9. The trick from here on in is not to smoke...
  10. I've got friends like you who are never single, they seem to jump from one person to the next with no break. As Paul said, sort your head out first, being single is fine, as Robert D'Niro said in Heat "I am alone, I am not lonely" (incidentally if you've not seen Heat, go and watch it, it's awesome). Surround yourself with friends who you want to talk to rather than going out on the pull. You'll find it quite refreshing to find your own space and be known for you rather than one half of a couple. Be well.
  11. Cool, catch you on the flip side. Just remember this board is still here if you ever need it and even after 8 months you WILL get triggers, so expect them. I find this board helpful to reinforce why I quit and giving advice to people going through withdrawal reminds me of the pain. So if you feel a bit of a wobble, or a big ass trigger, then come on here and support the newbies, it'll squash that trigger like a very annoying squashable thing. Take care.
  12. So I'm having a really crappy day... Within 10 minutes of reading emails I'm shouting across the office about these idiots emailing me and having a massive rant. My blood pressure is almost certainly dangerously high. And you know what I thought... Frick this, I'm going for a smoke! There's plenty of people here who I could steal one from if I wanted to. So day 467, still getting that pang. Still having that memory of the joy of stepping out of the office when it all gets stupid and having that breathe out and relax cigarette. I know this is not a true representation of the situation, I know a cigarette will not help, probably going for a walk will. Anyway, I didn't have one... but just saying, they still come!

    Did you speed up the video - No. That's all actual speed Dont you feel nervous doing that? - I don't really take risks. The only bad bit in the video was the lights turning green unexpectedly at the end so had to get across the traffic. That was stupid on my part and utterly avoidable. Have you ever been to the states? - yep did New York, Atlantic City and Phili many many years ago. Do you like cookies? - Of course!
  14. Beer snobbery isn't becoming! Down the pub with friends is the main thing!
  15. Isn't "Pride" an oven cleaner?
  16. Having you three down the pub with me would be interesting (or scary) I'm sure!
  17. The fascination the women have of your skirt is incredible... what other powers do you have?
  18. About 1:40 until I seriously consider the pub About 2:40 until I am at the pub with a pint Anyone else coming?

    Are you gay? - No, I do wish I liked penis as when I was single I definitely would have got laid more, however it's ladies that float my boat.
  20. I've said it before the math is simple. If you burn more calories than you consume, you will lose weight. If you consume more calories than you burn, you will gain weight. Therefore burn more or consume less.
  21. Remove ALL smoking paraphernalia from your life, throw out lighters, cigarettes, ashtrays, etc etc. Empty ashtrays in your car, clean your car, get some shake and vac and put the freshness back (do the shake and put the freshness back, if your carpet smells fresh your room does too, all you have to do is remember what to do... etc). Empty any smoking bins you had, sweep up any cigarette butts there might be near you. Do it now. Don't complain. And your "Emergency pack"... Throw it out. And that bit of weed... give it to a hippy friend. If you desperately want to smoke again you have made it difficult to do so.

    Do you envisage staying in Norwich for ever? - Nothing is forever, stuff changes, quite happy at the moment but who knows what's going to happen or what direction your life might go. Digging your heels in an not budging because of fear or comfort is no way for a human to live, go where life takes you (within reason obviously). What is your dream holiday? - My dream holiday would be one where I don't need a holiday to unwind afterwards and not be faced with x weeks of work when I get back to normality... But I know what you're asking... There's a million places I want to see, the poles, space, Cuba, Mexico, Egypt (in the 70s), Singapore, Kenya anywhere I've not been basically. There's no one place I want to go above others. But with a 2.5 year old there are certain practicalities that need to be taken into consideration (as well as fiscal commitment!)

    What was the last thing that made you: -laugh with abandon - Dumb answer but my son tickling my feet and him finding it hilarious which made me laugh more, which made him laugh more.. .etc etc. -cry like a baby - I cry all the time now, not really like a baby but have a little sob at sad things like RSPCA commercials, can't actually remember the last time I had a really good cry -angry - All the time!! I keep getting emails from idiots who want something stupid, or blatantly lie about something, I doubt my blood pressure is good. You have a wonderful sense of humor. Do people take offense quite often or just go with it? - I never (rarely) actively go out to offend anyone, I enjoy a good debate / argument but my intention generally would be to spark conversation and debate, people generally get offended when they run out of defence on a topic. My friends know I push the limits of what is generally perceived as polite conversation and I think they enjoy a bit of shock now and again. My humour / general id is what it is. Take it or leave it, I'll rarely apologise for it. If people don't like it they can hang out with someone else, doesn't bother me.
  24. I've been quit for a little over a year and the amount of people who have quit and relapsed and quit and relapsed in that time is phenomenal. It's interesting to see the pain they keep putting themselves through, and the pointlessness of it all. If you want an easy life, quit an stay quit! Seriously relapsing might feel like the easy way out but you need to go through withdrawal again, and the stress of feeling like you've failed, and the knowing looks from me and pointing at you and prodding you with a stick saying "Fricking idiot". Educate yourself, smoking has been demonstrated to likely make you poorly and give you a bit of ouchy which needs a little more than strokey strokey there threre kissy better. Throw away all smoking paraphernalia. Cigarettes, skins, tobacco, filters, lighters, matches, ashtrays. If your partner isn't on board with your quit, withdraw sexual favours until they go outside for smokes and clean their teeth afterwards. If you have a faith, your gods will not help you, after all, they created tobacco in the first place. It's all on YOU! Sorry. You chose to start smoking, you choose to stop smoking. It's entirely your responsibility and no amount of excuses, blame or reasoning will change this.* Don't relapse, 'tis a silly thing to do. Make your life easier, stay quit. * Unless of course there was some kind of clockwork orange like forcing you to smoke thing then I take it all back.
